daddy and doodles built a table...
this piece goes here...
time to test it out...
it works! thanks, grandad!
monday was a nice day for bubbles.
"is that a different pot?" you may be asking. why yes it is. long story short, it broke and had to be replaced. it's very loved. :)
Notice the old pot in the background? I'm gonna try to turn it into a strawberry planter. *crossing fingers*
we've adopted!

Green Thumb
Sunday, March 25, 2007i love freecycle. a very kind woman offered a miniature climbing rose bush, and i gladly (and quickly) accepted. after meeting her upon pick-up, she even offered some clippings from her houseplants. so, it looks like next weekend i'll be taking her up on her generosity and giving planting another go. i really enjoy getting my hands in the dirt. doodle-bug enjoyed it as well, but because my hands were yucky, i was unable to take pics of the process.
*I think I can. I think I can.*
Thursday, March 22, 2007it's nice to finally be able to knit without looking. i was able to make great progress on the baby kimono while studying for my biology exam. right now, i'm waiting for it dry from blocking. it's like waiting for paint to dry.
P for Progress
Tuesday, March 20, 2007my mom's best friend's daughter (got that?) is about to have a baby any day now. looking for any opportunity to knit, i decided to break out of my comfort zone and try a wee bit more difficult pattern. so, voila! here are pics of the mason dixon knitting "heartbreakingly cute baby kimono" pattern-in-progress.
ok, can't help myself. here's an incredibly cute picture of doodle-bug
boy i'm glad it's spring break
Wednesday, March 14, 2007because it's spring break, i've been able to finally get some projects off the needles. this washcloth is from a book i borrowed from the library called weekend knitting (i don't know why blogger doesn't have an option to underline) by melanie falick. i'm wishing i bought this book instead of mason dixon knitting. :(
anyway, i used crystal palace cotton chenille yarn.
Off the needles....
Tuesday, March 13, 2007doodle-bug's grumpy today so these pics are as good as it gets. anyways, here's the tank top i finally finished knitting.

I'm totally cracking up here. According to this, I look most like Christie Brinkley followed by Hilary Duff. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! My Heritage, you have made my day.
*sigh*
Saturday, March 3, 2007This:
was this:
and i made a swatch in hopes of making this:
the swatch was comprised using the lace pattern that makes the "v" design, except it looked nothing like it. it was more like a blob of loosely knitted yarn. *sigh* i believe the yarn is around a fingering/baby weight. what am i gonna do?
