I am at a loss and not sure what to do...

For the last week I have not been able to knit or do any crafting... I seem to have lost my groove somewhere. I tried tonight to work on the Iris Wrap from interknitweave but I only managed another couple of rows before I put it down and just watched TV. I am considering ripping out the iris wrap because I am doing it with recycled yarn but because the yarn strands are not spun together it seems a bit messy to me. Maybe when I block it it will turn out OK ? Maybe I should have done something to it before using it to make it stay together ... Not sure.

Maybe I lost my groove because I am tired from not being able to sleep ... Usually my apartment is "messy" and "cluttered" looking but this week it isn't ... You don't think my craftiness could be related to having my apartment messy do you? Hummmmm.

In other news ... I start my new job next Wednesday. I am both excited and nervous at the same time. As soon as I get settled into my job I am going to buy a house and get a dog. I have already been approved for a morgage so I have started looking at places for sale on the internet but unless something pops up that I cannot resist I am going to hold off for a couple of weeks ... Starting anew job and buying a house at the sametime would be to much for me all at once ... Lets spread the joy out a little bit ;)

I am going to head off to bed ... Maybe I lost my groove in a dream or something and I can find it there?

Oh my stars! lots to show and tell today

I guess I will start with my latest news I have got a new job and I gave my notice today so I have been a bit on the teary side this morning because I have some great friends here and its sad not to be working with them anymore, but my new job is for another company in the building beside where I work now so I still get to have lunch with them and see them. Very exciting for me!!!

And now for the much promised pictures of the Rocker in progress... It doesn't look like much but it is going to be great when it is done. Its a perfect knitting chair.


I have been working on a baby sweater from my Debbie Bliss book too. It has to have the ends weaved in and be blocked but it is so cute.


I had a great trip to Nova Scotia on the weekend ... Have a look at the photos..
I completed my sisters purse but it took longer then I thought it would .. I knit on the ferry, in the car, when we went out on the boat ... basically anywhere and time I could manage it in order to get it done.... There were a couple of late nights of sewing too. But I think it was well worth it. My sister was so happy to get it and she loved it.

Have a look at the pictures...
