Two Weeks...

I decided that I wanted to try to post at least once a week, but it seems that means I post every two weeks or so. In the time that has passed since my last post this



has turned to this:

And this...




has turned to this.


I took the most recent pictures last Saturday. To console myself about the terrible weather we had at the end of last week, on Saturday I made these.



A very delicious way to cheer myself up. AND it was the first time I've made chocolate chip cookies all by myself!


I have been enjoying them (they aren't quite gone). But I think my husband might be enjoying them more.


And of course, I've been knitting, albeit slowly.


I'm done six full repeats of the center pattern. I'm hoping to get at least nine out of my ball of yarn. But I should hurry up! I bought $50 worth of yarn online the other day... :)

A place for everything...

...and nothing in it's place. This is my crafting area in our apartment. Or at least it will be. I have a lovely nook for knitting...



...a desk for painting and sewing...



...and bookshelves to hold my crafting books, along with a few other things.


The only problem is that it is all still a mess. I've been knitting more than I've been organizing. It is just a little sad, I did move in back in June. But look at the knitting!



Cashmere is so lovely to knit with. (Lily of the Valley Scarf, by Nancy Bush, in Jojoland 2 ply cashmere) Such cozy stuff to be working with as it's getting colder. What could be nicer than knitting and cuddling a cat?



Can you blame me for not wanting to organize?
