2nd Sock Syndrom


For a few months I have been priveledged to hang out with the great girls of Aloha Knitters, everytime I sit with them I learn so much, about alot of things but especially knitting and yarn crafts. This last week I learned the actual name of a terrible affliction, 2nd sock syndrom, athough I have to sadly inform you that my case is the much lesser known, 2nd leg warmer syndrom. The failer to be be motivated at all to complete the mate of a 2 peice project.
I will keep you updated on my progress with this problem, right now it seems to need a whole lot of will power and determination to get me to the mamoth length of 15 inches of legwarmer. I will get there, if only for the reaction of my brothers when I actually wear said warmers in public.

Happy Mothers Day

It's a beautiful day here in Hawaii, I'm sitting thinking how I really give thanks for every mother around the world, who endlessly give love and praise, assurance and guidence to the future of this planet. Yes there is war and hatred, but we surely would have already self destructed if it wasn't for motherly love and influence.
Thank you to all the peace making, hug giving, world bettering mothers around the world.
Thanks to my mother who made me who I am and taught me how to truely love a child, a precious gift I try and use everday.

Rasta Hat


I just finished my fisrt knitted hat, a huge accomplishment for me. I can't wait to get back to Sydney for some cold weather to wear it in. The yarn started out looking like dread locks, hence the rasta look and name.
I am currently one leg warmer towards a pair, who knows what could come next, you'll just have to wait and see.
( Do I not have the most beautiful son ever !)
