Katydid Knits

In theory, it's all about the fiber – knitting, crocheting, sewing, and spinning – but really, it's all about my life.

Yarn Pr0n, er, Thursday Wednesday

Yeah, I haven’t done any YPF posts in forever.  I’m sure Cristi has booted me from the webring by now.    But I’ve gotten a few new things that I wanted to show off. First, if you are a Rockin’ Sock Club member and haven’t seen this yet, well, why the heck haven’t you opened [...]

LazyMan Update, Week Two

So, here we are on the 15th.  Halfway through the month.  How am I doing? Walking – I’m just 1/10 of a mile shy of being exactly halfway done with this.  I’ve got 13 miles done, with 13.2 left to go. Biking – I’ve completed 62 miles, with 50 left to go – 55% done! [...]

New Goodies!

Today, we have a combination of things that have come into my life – stuff from Etsy and some stuff I made.  It’s all about needle wrangling today.  First – Etsy.  I’ve determined that my new Twitter habit is very, VERY dangerous.  People like to tweet about awesome stuff they find on Etsy.  Since I’m [...]

Laptop Surgery

The "v" key on my laptop has been a bit hinky of late (skips one out of every four or five times I use it), so we decided to see about popping it off and cleaning the crud out. Apparently, a LOT of fiber fuzzies can collect in a keyboard. Hopefully, this solves the issue, [...]

My Weirdo Cat

Simba is a goofy cat. He will stuff himself into any box he can find. If you are wondering, that was the box from some needles I ordered from KnitPicks.  And yes, he’s blurry.  He moved when the flash on my phone hit him.  What can I say, he’s no Calvin or Ripple.  »This post [...]

LazyMan Update, Week One

OK, first, thank you all for being so sweet about my last post.  I should let you know, though, that my friend wasn’t being as awful as that probably sounded.  He and I have known each other since high school, and that’s just kind of how we are – we bust on each other.  He [...]

A Sudden Realization

So, I tweeted earlier that my mom is now on Facebook (Dad has been for a while), and made a joking comment about how now I’ll need to behave.  I have Twitter set up to update my FB status (Teh Lazy – I has it), and an old friend from high school was hassling me [...]

A Small Clarification

A while back, I had some problems with spam comments on my blog, both with spam getting through and with non-spam getting filtered.  So, I changed spam filters.  I added a couple of plugins – one that closes comments on posts after a certain amount of time, and one that limits the number of links [...]

When My Public Speaks, I Listen

My public.  HA! Anyway, y’all requested being able to see the dress to properly advise me, so here it is.  And pardon the it’s-9:30-and-I-had-yoga-tonight look.  Front: Back (Hello, tattoo #3!): I think I’m leaning toward a shrug rather than a shawl, mostly for ease and not having to juggle it.  Also, I think I’d rather [...]

A Little Help?

So, we have two friends who are getting married next month (Yay!). I found a really cute dress yesterday while Yorkie and I were terrorizing the Annapolis Mall. I can’t find a picture of it on the Torrid website (of course), but it’s white with a big blue floral print, and black accents (kinda Katy [...]

About Me

I'm a married knitter, crocheter, and newbie spinner living in the Maryland suburbs with my photographer- computer geek hubby, 3 cats, and 3 dogs. And yarn. A LOT of yarn. Just ask my hubby.
