Hello, crafty and sundry! I don’t know why I thought a pair of socks would be a quick knit. I mean, it was in the scheme of things; it took me less than a month (or just over a month?) to crank them out. That’s pretty quick all told, especially considering that my focus has …
Hello, crafty and sundry! I have been having a lovely time of knitting-not-knitting. Which is to say, I -am- knitting, but it took a lot of not-knitting to get to that point. Socks Even though I had i mind to do start my next big project in the form of my Hobo top, I also …
Hello, crafty and sundry! I swear, one day I will stop with the cutesy rhyming titles. That day is obviously not today so… nyah nyah? 😀 But yes, I had the pleasure of finishing my cardigan off Tuesday night, just in time to show off at my Stitch ‘n Bitch group yesterday. I’m always …
Hello, crafty and sundry! I have been knitting up a storm here in Ye Olde England, hee hee. I’ve been setting myself row challenges to encourage myself to speed through my cardigan, and I can report that I am so close to finishing it! All that remains is the last arm… which means I’m totally …
Hello, crafty and sundry! This one is mainly for the gamer sorts, hee hee. In the past week or so, I have gotten massively hooked on the Tropico franchise. I’ve had 3 and 4 for awhile, but hadn’t really given it a good go. I’d poked at 3 briefly some months back, but the tutorials …

Washington High School for the …
Hello, crafty and sundry! Now, I’ve been a gamer my entire life. There are games I still play all the time that are legal to drink in the US now, like my oft-played fave Serf City: Life is Feudal (Also known as The Settlers). I often have it up while I am doing other things …
Hello, crafty and sundry! I realised that I have all but fallen off the face of the planet here. Whups. Things have been delightfully busy here though, so let’s see if I can recap! Christmas Came Early I know that I had mentioned in the past that I wanted a New Nintendo 3DS XL …
Hello, crafty and sundry! While most of my attention continues to be eaten up by Pokémon (I’m currently working on filling up the entire National Pokédex for once), I have been trying to make some sincere effort on my knitting as well. And not just normal, left-handed knitting — I’m also working on my right-handed …
Hello, crafty and sundry! I’ve had my head down most of the weekend trying to make a decent showing in the Pokémon International Challenge. Suffices to say, I’m 99.9% sure that I will not be competing past this initial stage. Out of the 28 battles I completed, I won six. That’s about a fifth of …
