A bit melodramatic, but beloved, courtesy of old friend The Graduate.

Mrs. Robinson: It’s too late.

Elaine: Not for me!

(And then there’s the unspoken line, “Now what?”)

And now the baseball season really begins…

All that other stuff didn’t seem real, but today on a bright, clear New England afternoon Johnny Pesky hoisted the 2007 championship flag over Fenway Park, got kissed on the cheek by Manny Ramirez, and shouted “Play Ball!” Let the games begin.

The Knitting Turnip

On My Needles

Rhapsody in Tweed cabled pullover for Ezra! using Tahki Donegal Tweed in Forest, from Fall 2004 Interweave Knits. I've just picked this one up again, so it's moving up in the queue!

Sweater with Cable Patterns pullover using Araucania Nature Wool Chunky in Mauve, from Rebecca Magazine Number 28

Heather Pullover using Classic Elite Wings in Larkspur, from Rowan’s A Season’s Tale... This needs the knit doctor. I'm going to have to frog back a little bit and redo the shoulder area. Long story.

Hush Pullover using Jo Sharp DK wool in Wine, from Rowan’s Calmer Collection

Recently Finished Projects

In the Groove boatneck pullover using Manos del Uruguay in Black and Cheek (pale pink), from Fall 2006 issue of knitscene. SWEATER IS DONE!

Stash Stealer Scarf for me, using delicious yarn that darling Amy let me raid from her stash. I made up the pattern--a couple of wide ribs rimmed in moss stitch. It's soft and fuzzy and DONE!
