Gonna order from Rowan...

Zm37So I don't care if a color is discontinued! If I can get a 50% discount and probably make 2 projects out of 10 balls of yummy yarn, that's cool! I'm going to order a bag of discontinued Kidsilk Haze in dreamboat and a bag of Cotton Glace in delight. Yum yum yum.

Maybe I'll try to make this cute tunic on the cover of Rowan 37.

I'm a believer!

Flat Rate Cleaners ROCKS! I think I'm in lurve. How can you beat $3.99 per item for dry cleaning? And you don't even have to schlep it back and forth or forget to pick it up! Woohoo!

Oh, man... it's the little things. You know?

can't... sleep.... can't wake up...

I think I have insomnia. Or maybe there's just too much that I want to do and not enough hours in the day. I don't know. Maybe I should start meditating again and breathing and stuff... I think it calmed my brain down a bit.

I'm looking forward to this long weekend coming up. No big plans but I'll finish the pinwheel baby blanket for CP in CA and will hopefully make a matching dinosaur toy to go with it from the excellent pattern over at Xtreme Knitting. Wondering how big that damn blanket should be for a newborn... I'm thinking it should be at least 2-feet diameter.

We are now totally in the swing of things here in NYC. It's amazing that we actually live here. It is such a pleasure to be able to go anywhere without having to worry about where we parked the car and when the meter is up. I have figured out (pretty much) exactly how late I can sleep in order to get to work on time...

Looking for a summer knitting project - I just finished the Rowan Bloom vest - still have to block it - and ended up knitting that on a US 3 needle! I'd like to do something on a larger needle for a bit. That thing seemed to last forever!

I'm also looking for a good knitting group in NYC. I miss my buddies in San Francisco - we had a great group. Now I have to get in with a bunch of strangers! YIKES!

That's it for now. More soon.
