to my new blog and blogging software. I wasn’t really comfortable with my previous one and decided to give Wordpress a try. So far I am really liking it, but I am only one day in. Here’s wishing me the best eh?! =) One thing I really do like about wordpress is that they have alot of documentation in their “Codex” and there is also a forum with info as well. If all goes well, there should be many changes going on here as I get more familiar with the software and customize the blog to my liking.
Crafting wise, this weekend has been fairly unproductive. I haven’t touched my wheel and barely touched my needles. I’m trying to give up caffeine (again!) and get back on a normal schedule (I have been staying up til all hours recently) so I have been feeling really sluggish this weekend. On the upside, I did get out and make a purchase for an upcoming project. I am making a poncho for my hubby’s co-worker’s daughter (Jessie). I made one for her earlier this year and she absolutely loves it so her mom requested another! Part of the reason I have been staying up so late is I have been going into a swatching frenzy with the different yarns in my stash while watching late night tv. That has been unexpectedly fun…I usually not a big fan of the swatch. Anyways, Miss Jessie picked Patons Divine with a strand of Lion Brand Fun Fur held with it - this poncho is going to be very fuzzy!! So yesterday, armed with my Joann’s coupons, I bought some Divine in regal red and fun fur in black. I am not working from a pattern so the yardage is up in the air - I bought a few balls of each to get me started. Now I just need to get some more size info and then I can get knitting!
