Hand dyed yarn swap

Well I took the plunge and joined the hand dyed yarn swap. I am really excited about it all. I have needed a reason to do some more dyeing, and lets face it, once I drag all the stuff out, it isn't hard to dye up a bunch of stuff. That or to finally set up a permanent dye space in the basement. If only there were more hours in the day.

Swaps and Ravelry

So, I put my name in for Ravelry just for the heck of it, since everyone has been making such a fuss. And now that I am on there I totally get it. Ravelry is soooo cool. My favorite thing to do right now is pattern searching. I still need to enter my projects and stash, but a bit at a time. Very cool.

And I signed up for my first sock yarn swap and am very excited.

Maybe I will get some work done on Icarus tonight. We'll see.

Summer is too busy

I wish I could say I have been knitting a lot, but that just isn't so. Between work and summer activities, only the sock I knit during my lunches is making progress. And we have company again this weekend. So off to clean up the house for that. Maybe if we watch a movie I can knit a bit. Sigh.
