Mutter of Purl

My opinions (and I do have a lot of them) on knitting and sometimes other topics.

Ladies, Lift Your Girls Up

I have kept this to myself for a very long time but now I have to say something. We live in L.A., one of the trendiest cities in the world. I have been noticing that there seems to be an epidemic of BAD BRAS out in public. This leads to a droopy silhouette, poorly fitted clothing and just a general all-around matronly look to your,...er, front side. Get yourselves to a competent lingerie department and get a fitting. The proper bra can visually take 10 years off the effects gravity has made on your body!

This public service message is now over.

Where, oh where has my little blog gone...

Well, blame it on Ravelry. That is where I have been spending my free cyber time lately. That, and a whole bunch of other crap that is best not mentioned.

I started the Rowena Cardigan from the Knit 2 together book in January. I am using KnitPicks Ambrosia in lavender. The yarn is so soft and knits easily. However, the entire sweater is stockinette so therefore can be boring after awhile.

It got boring.

So I went to my local JoAnn's and picked up some Sugar and Cream in the "New Larger Size" ball.
2 each of 5 colors for a knitted bathroom mat. Size 10 1/2 needles and 2 strands held together in roughly a Log Cabin pattern of my own making. Should be soft under the feet after the early morning shower.

Apparently I have lost the ability to construct a complete sentance.
