It's been quite a while since my last knitting-related post. I'm still working on my Bohus cardi, The Green Wood. I started knitting the sleeves after we got back from New Zealand and I can't say that they're going as quickly as I would like. I've been distracted from knitting since we got back; since … Continue reading While I was knitting …

This week marked the end of both season 2 of Indian Summers and season 1 of The Durrels in Corfu on Masterpiece Theater (PBS in the States). There were no surprises with either show; they both ended in a predictable happy and satisfying, though unrealistic, way. I won't say more so I don't give away any … Continue reading While I was knitting …

I got to see Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them! And it was great! One of those movies that I wouldn't mind seeing again while it's in theaters. And also one of those movies that I didn't knit during, mostly because I finished Henry's hat and didn't want to work on the Green Wood cardi … Continue reading While I was knitting …

This week, I watched all of The Crown while I was knitting. I didn't mean to watch it all in one week, but once I got started I couldn't stop. It's a Netflix series and Netflix makes it very easy to binge watch, even with the "Are you still watching?" query every 3 hours or so. Claire … Continue reading While I was knitting … November 15 edition

Saturday, I drove to Richmond, VA with a friend and her daughter, who's taking a class from William and Mary for gifted students. I went along to keep Becky company and hang out while her daughter was in class. I somehow forgot to knit on the way down - it was dark when we set … Continue reading While I was knitting … November 8 edition

Some great shows have had their season premieres in the last few weeks; notably, The Walking Dead and Rectify. I'm sure you've all heard of The Walking Dead, the zombie apocalypse show where, much like Game of Thrones, no character is safe. The last season ended with a cliffhanger and the premiere was brutal, probably … Continue reading While I was knitting …

I finally finished reading Quiet Dell by Jayne Ann Phillips and will never get back those hours of my life. I kept hoping it would improve, but it was more shmaltzy romance (with terrible dialogue) than true crime exploration. I'm really disappointed; I remember reading Machine Dreams years ago and really enjoying it. The good news … Continue reading While I was knitting …

I really don't want all my blog post titles to be alliterative so I'm exploring some more interesting titles for them, including today - my second TV Tuesday While I was knitting ... post. While finishing up the Gir hat and the scarf, and getting started on the luchadore mask balaclava, I started watching River … Continue reading While I was knitting …
Tuesday is the New Monday (kinda)
Thanks to a holiday yesterday (Columbus Day in the US, known by many on social media as Indigenous People Day), today is the beginning of a brand new week. Since I finished the 30 Day (Blogging About) Knitting Challenge, I thought I'd try out a regular schedule of posts, something not quite as taxing as the … Continue reading Tuesday is the New Monday (kinda)
