In the middle of knitting my husband a sweater that has flames on it.
Making a baby gift.
Looking at the utter chaos that is my craft area and wishing the cleaning fairy would come and fix it up.
I ain't got no resolutions so don't even look here fer 'em.

Posted by Angela at January 3, 2005 03:38 PMI have to see a picture of the flame sweater, cuz right now, I'm a little skeered.
Posted by: Sue Sue at January 3, 2005 03:51 PMIs it the flame sweater from S-n-B Nation? I love that book way more than I thought I would. So, where are your Amy Butler craft bag photos? I would love a pattern review. My mom just started knitting, so that may be a good Mother's Day Gift.
Posted by: Nicole at January 3, 2005 05:04 PMIf I could justify this yearning as a pregnancy craving I would.
I have to have that Rogue sweater. I am in deep deep love.
Really, Hobby Lobby is out? *sigh* I'm so out of trends, I really like that place. It's much cheaper and they always have needles.
Glad you're back Ang! The flame sweater sounds awesome!

That's power. : )
