I know, I know


I've been a little M.I.A. lately.

I hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving. I worked but then headed out of the city to the beach for a couple of days (a day and a half, really). It was nice to get away and spend a little time with friends. I haven't really had any time off to speak of in a while so I tried to enjoy it.

My job is in turmoil. Although since I'm writing on this blog it must be pretty much worked out. I've been insane for a couple of months. Yes, MONTHS. crazy, right? But now I think I've sorted everything out.

OK, the photo above is THE COVER of Knit.1 magazine. How cool is that? It's a gorgeous pink Malabrigo beret. It's a SUPER EASY knit. I'm not kidding. I knit it up on the downtown train. I swear. SUPER EASY! The magazine comes out next week (maybe Dec. 16?). So be sure to get one. From the website it looks like there are some really cute patterns. Check it out.

I'm also working on a couple of sweaters that are due in a week or two. I've been seriously neglecting them because of my work drama. But I'm back. I have a sleeve to go on one and then the whole sweater of the other. It should be fine. I'm pretty fast.

I'd kind of like to be knitting some simple hats and scarves but I'll wait until the sweaters are finished. I don't really like working on multiple projects at a time. I forget to write down what I did and then I can't write up a pattern or repeat whatever it was on the other side...

Anyway, hope all is well. Spend wisely this holiday season. Don't get into debt. Keep your head up. And a smile on your face!
