I saw a tweet this morning and was instantly enamored: I would now like a marionette of myself to feed squirrels and bunnies and other small animals, and I also wouldn't mind having a movable mini-me to knit for. Just imagine how quickly FOs would fly of my needle for mini-Mandy/mini-madgeface! Think of all the … Continue reading lol Friday: Woman, Marionette, Squirrel

LOL Friday
This has been rattling around for at least a yaer, but it's funny and encouraging at the same time, a rare thing. Happy Friday!

LOL Friday: What Have I Been Doing This Week?
Thanks to our celebration of the Memorial Day holiday here in the US, I slacked on my blogging schedule. To be fair, the family we stayed with in New Zealand was in town, so we spent Monday cleaning and preparing a big meal for them, and then spent Tuesday in DC seeing the sights with … Continue reading LOL Friday: What Have I Been Doing This Week?
LOL Friday: Weaving in Ends, Magic Yarn Balls
I'm really enjoying knitting my Aranami Shawl, but there are so many loose ends waving around. I'm spit splicing where I can and weaving in at the end of every row, but there are still lots of ends hanging off the back. In that spirit, here are some funnies about weaving in ends. So you've … Continue reading LOL Friday: Weaving in Ends, Magic Yarn Balls

Part of me thinks that so many posts a week is overwhelming for people following me (and sometimes for me) and part of me thinks that having a regular M-F schedule is a good thing. At any rate, it's been a busy week! Is anyone … Continue reading LOL Friday: Cat Squad Goals
LOL Friday: MDS&W
This will be me to everyone at Maryland Sheep and Wool on Sunday: Festival goers are knitting friends I haven't met yet! Also: I feel like I need to make a sweater (and conquer intarsia) that says "KNITTAZ 4 LIFE."
LOL Friday: Hair!
Body hair can be funny, particularly when it's sheepish. Mutton chops! These make me wish it was fashionable for ladies to sport facial hair, but that's a trend that I don't think will ever catch on. By Terry Border, one in a series (yes, there are more). One for the ladies and anyone who relishes … Continue reading LOL Friday: Hair!
LOL Friday: Woolverine
When I first came up with a blog schedule, Fridays were Follow Fridays, where I recommended someone to follow here on WordPress or elsewhere on social media. My Friday posts have been spotty, at best, and I have a Pinterest board of fiber art funnies that I'd love to share, so I give you Funny … Continue reading LOL Friday: Woolverine
TBT: Finger/Toe Hats
What possessed me to make wee hats for my fingers/toes in Christmas colors back in 2008? I was knitting wee stockings and cardigans to give away as Christmas ornaments and decided I should try making some Santa & elf hats. The first one, the Santa hat, was too small, but fit quite nicely on my … Continue reading TBT: Finger/Toe Hats
