Wool & Words

I spent a good part of yesterday reading about this travesty. I'm all for computers in schools, but this is outrageous...and unnecessary. There are times when I think the general public thinks your IQ goes up 50 pts. if you just go onto the Internet. I think we all know better...

I'm on Swatch #3 to me, which is actually TKGA Swatch #2. Why am I doing this again? Heheh. I have to admit, though, that it's kinda fun. They're little bits of knitting from which I can get an almost immediate sense of accomplishment.

Projects in the works:
1. The Pippis. Always the Pippis.
2. Colin's Striped Scarf. So not happening. I think I should rip the whole thing out and do it doubleknit or something.
3. A fake-ish Faroese from Cast On in the remaining Lion Homespun from my EZ Pullover (which is still waiting to be finished).
4. The Estonian Garden Wrap in Jaggerspun Zephyr for my mom's Xmas gift. She wanted a white shawl...
5. A host of other things I'm not thinking of.

Pics!

Kathleen asked about the grandkids. They're actually Steve's "step" grandkids, but they're grandkids all the same. Ceili and Tanith are 9 mos. and 20 mos. respectively. What cuties!

First, Ceili, or as I call her, The Wiggly Worm:

And Tanith, fresh from a bit of kitty torture (Merc always runs scared when they visit):
