You’ve Reached the Blocking Department
January 25, 2010
If you are looking for the Weaving In Ends Department, that department is closed. Thank goodness.
Today I caught up on some projects that have been sitting around nearly finished. I have a shoulder warmer (the blue tube), a textured triangle shawl (the pink triangle) (rav link here), and a cabled caplet (the light blue thing that is hard to see at the top of the picture) (rav link here). There’s a recently finished project on the table too, my January socks (from my pair of socks a month challenge).
Three snaps in a circle for me for getting things done today!
P.S. Did you happen to see Conan O’Brien’s final Tonight Show last Friday? I thought it was very well done though a little crazy at the end. He had the opportunity to be really bitter and negative, and bad mouth NBC, but he was classy and positive. This is a quote from my favorite moment of the show: “All I ask is one thing, and I’m asking this particularly of young people that watch. Please do not be cynical. I hate cynicism. For the record it’s my least favorite quality. It doesn’t lead anywhere. Nobody in life gets exactly what they thought they were going to get. But if you work really hard and you’re kind, amazing things will happen. I’m telling you, amazing things will happen.”

About Me
Welcome to my spot on the web where I talk about needlework, crafts, and [many] other random things.
A few tidbits about me: I met my husband in college, flirting over tuba letters in the Penn Band. Our dog, CJ, and our cat, Sabrina, round out our family. I'm a sewist, knitter and needlepointer, and an occasional scrapbooker. I love organizing, reading, making jewelry, and hiking. A Chicago girl at heart, I am an avid follower the Cubs, Bears, and Blackhawks.
You can email me at mlynapier [at] pobox [dot] com. Thank you for stopping by!
My Etsy Shop
A place for me to sell my handmade goods. My style? It's fun and funky with a hint of romance.
