Nada
I have absolutely nothing to show you all. How depressing! I have been in a state of limbo since finishing the Logan wrap and English Crystal square. I’m in the middle of several secret projects. Thus far, it’s been mostly “hurry up and wait.” Yarn has arrived for only one project, which I’ve swatched; but before I can continue, I need the paperwork and further instructions. This waiting wreaks havoc on my nerves.

(Quick update re: the Rory pattern; it’s now available for downloading or saving to your library at Ravelry. If you’re not a Raveler, a public download link is available here.)
No knitting report today, but look! Pretty yarn! more »
Update
Thank you again to everyone who left comments about my Dad in my last post. We really appreciated it. He did leave the hospital last Monday. But by Friday, he had a high fever and signs of Pneumonia, and Mom took him back to the hospital yesterday morning. He has had oxygen and also new antibiotics. The folks at the hospital are hopeful that he will be able to go home tomorrow or the day after that.
I’ve been keeping myself busy knitting and cleaning my parents’ house and have hardly spent any time at the computer. I’m ridiculously behind. Grandma is in town for Thanksgiving, so we’ll be hitting the day-after sales this weekend. I hope to be able to share pictures of WIPs and FOs next week.
Happy Thanksgiving!
Less “eh”
After yesterday’s site meltdown, I spent all morning cleaning up and removing errors. I think I’ve got everything ironed out. There are still a couple of weird errors I’ve contacted my host about.
I took some extra time to try out a few skins and still can’t find anything I specifically like. This one comes close, but is limited in the way only right-sided sidebars are allowed. But I threw together a quick header logo and will keep this until I get time to work on something better. Right now, it’s more important to be able to post stuff here, and be accessible, compared to the past two years, when the site wasn’t accessible. : )
