Hookers N’ Junkies

It looks like we have a regular thing. Let’s always do Stichy Bitchy on every other saturday afternoon. I don’t think we need  a fixed location, despite the fact that it’s always been at Remedy. So, in the new year, let’s try a few other places. This coming week, I’m afraid, we are stuck at Remedy due to the fact that I don’t think I have an available vehicle, making it impossible for any of the Edmonton crowd to make it anywhere outside a 2km radius.

I’m having lots of fun with Amigurumi. It can be lots of fun Check out info and patterns if you are interested. Don’t get all addicted, now

I’ve recently come across some great inspiration in the stuffed crochet arena. Amigurumi, specifically, and I’ve found a whole host of free patterns and ideas.

Just as an example, this year, I bought some girlfriends Goats for Christmas. You know, the ones you buy for villages in the developing world. Anyway, I attatched a handmade, crocheted stuffed goat head so they had something to “show for it”.  I’ll bring in the patterns for the next one. And I was thinking that, really, it wouldn’t be so bad to meet on Saturday afternoon at around 1, would it? Just an idea, ladies :)   

Our next stitch and bitch is TBA but for your consideration. A quick note while I should be making use of my employment but am stealing away for some crochetese.

Ideas for next stitch since we HOPEFULLY will have some newbies.

Ideas for experimental projects, fresh ideas from such places as this

I totally got into it last night. The chairs I have at work are not very good for yarn work, since the arms are either too high or too low, making me strain my arms a lot, and eventually tiring, and (le gasp!) having to do the work I get paid to do. But, for some reason, last night, I just got into it. I got a lot done on the project I am working on, and I’m quite pleased with the results, as close to finishing that they are.

Now, if only I could remember what all my projects are, I would be well on my way to finishing them

I thought I’d include this picture of Fritz who jumped on the ironing board immeditely after I finished ironing on it. He loves warm laudndry. What can we say?
