Wednesday Knitting Update

Knitting is happening here! It is great to actually have a little time to get some done during the day. I have really missed knitting regularly. Still not as easy to do when the little girl is awake but getting better. She just needs some yarn of her own to play with. :)

One is a sweet little dress for a friend's new baby. The pattern is only for 6mos, 12mos, 2T and 3T, though, and I wanted to make something that would fit a little sooner than that. So I adjusted a bit to make for about a 3 month old.

So far, my calculations have worked. :)



The other project is a Mystery shawl. Fun! Love mystery KAL's. Have only received the first clue which I finished in about an hour.

Waiting patiently for the next one. Hoping to get before leaving to NYC tomorrow. Maybe I can get some knitting in while out there. There will be lots of family around to keep the little girl entertained. :)

TSS: Google Reader Clean Up


There were hundreds and hundreds of blogs in my reader. Knit blogs, book blogs, cooking blogs, mom blogs and teaching blogs. Time to clean it all up. I was having a lot of trouble getting through them all and was getting so overwhelmed that I marked them all read.

So, yesterday I did some purging and cleaning after tweeting with Melissa of Melissa's Bookshelf about it.
I got rid of blogs that I don't read anymore, those that don't post regularly, and those that only allow part of their posts to show up in readers.  Once that was done, I was actually able to read some posts, leave some comments and found a KAL to participate in. Yay!

If you are a knitter and want to join in, here is the link:
Mystery KALs are so much fun.
