Worldwide Knit in Public Day plans are in full swing here in Fredericton and I've been working on clues and all kinds of goodies for the Singer store.
Current info:
If you're in New Brunswick on June 14, you've GOT TO come to Fredericton! It's going to be a lot of fun and there will be surprises, sales and lots of silliness throughout the day!

Re: my absence. Dudes. I have almost literally lost my knitting mojo. My beautiful, beautiful woodland shawl is MIA. I cannot find it anywhere. My apartment ate it or one of my trips to SJ ate it or maybe the bus ate it. I don't know but the mofo is MIA and I'm pretty heartbroken.
I've been sticking to small projects, knitting baby slippers galore (ok, 5 so far) and a wee sweater for my baby soon-to-be friend Chloe (which reminds me I need to pick up buttons TODAY because I'm meeting her tomorrow). I've been very fickle about socks, knitting half an inch or so several times and then just saying "MEHHHHHHHHHHHH." I'm still crazy about yarn and knitting but not producing much.
I've been thinking about all of you. Back with photos and more info SOON.

New Again, Blue Again
My dear friends,
Your thoughtful expressions of sympathy helped in ways I can't articulate with any measure of eloquence. Thank you all so much. It really means so much to me to know that I have great friends like all of you.
BIG HUG!
* * * * *
Last week was rough (with some extra crud on top of everything else) but spending time with my family and my beau made all the difference. My beau came back to town with me Sunday night and stayed until yesterday morning...and a friend delivered a gorgeous bouquet of flowers last night. There have been countless other gestures that have helped me deal with all of the weirdness.
* * * * *
I bought more yarn on the weekend. The trip home was a great excuse to visit London-Wul. I picked up some more needles and some GORGEOUS Trekking Handart in Karibik. I also chose a few balls of DB Baby Cashmerino for baby knits and a hat. I made a sweet little hat for my friends' baby shower and the papa-to-be asked for one of his own. So that's going on the 'to knit' list asap...
* * * * *
Knitpicks needles -- has anyone else ever noticed what feels like a tiny burr at the tip of the needle and / or at the join?
* * * * *
So. The blog. It's blue. I like it so far.
I finally updated my pathetically out-of-date blogroll. There are still links and buttons to be added but those will come.
I added a few doohickeys on the side because sometimes I just need a place to say "Hey -- I'm reading / watching / nerding out about this! Are you?" So now I have one.
I needed a change. I liked the old way but there was something BLAH about it...especially after months and months of the same old, lame old.
* * * * *
OK. I'm zonked. Take care. Be happy. Talk soon.
BIG HUG,
j
