Pondering things, like maybe blogging a little more seriously (but then I usually do, don't I?) so also pondering an update to this and a name change.
I'm not just a knitter, but I am a total Flibbertigibbet, so I'm updating to Flibbertigibbet Gal. I'll have to figure out some renovating of this site and spruce it up to look better.
But what brought this on? Ideas. I like to cook, and knit, and do other crafts, so I may as well spread the love around.
We'll see how well this goes.

Long time gone..
Man it's been forever since I blogged. Far, far too long. I am a horrible blogger.
What's been happening? Lots of stuff. Next to none of it having to do with knitting. I'm steadily working on Mr Greenjeans, now that I have my gauge I've finally moved on from the top part to the cabling. I'm also working on a sock, a Saturday Sock and the special thing about this one is I'm working on it the way Yarn Harlot showed us in the class she taught at last year's M1 retreat. I think I'm finally getting the motions down, it seems to go faster (at least when knitting, purling just doesn't seem to co-operate much).
That's it for knitting, no finished objects, no pretty pictures (too gloomy this week for pictures and I didn't think of it last week when it was 30+ Celsius).
I'm also working on a craft room! Since we moved I have a nice little corner where I can put my stuff. For now it's full of boxes and bags, my sewing machine (still boxed) and my wardrobe (there's no closet in there to stash stuff). I picked up a table at the flea market for thirty dollars and it's a nice sturdy smallish dining room size table which will be perfect for my sewing machine and laying things out (once I get it too set up). I might even be able to display my porcelain dolls again!
Lots to do though. Back to the plotting and working..
