Craaaazy!
I'm just feeling Craaaazy these days...
Craaaazy 'bout my knittin' buds (Sans Our Dear Lauren, wahh!)
Who I saw last night...
Ei and Donna
It'd been over 2 or maybe 3 weeks since I have seen them...
Donna made us Hpnotic Martinis (hic!), Grilled Dill Shrimp with a Feta cheese dip, and Chinese Chicken Cabbage Salad...Oh, it was fabu! Beyond words, really. What a hostess...
Ha! She's all ours, people! (plus I am 9 minutes from her house...woohoo!)
We got to see all of her FO's and some of her WIPs...she's hella talented.
Ei was working on her DH's Looove Vest...
Out of this lovely perfect evening, came a new fall knit-together! A hint...I'm going to use Karabella Aurora 8...and not DB Cashmerino. Oh, and there are cables, too...
Here we are posing just like we were taught from The Photogenic One
I think Ei has a better one...much more chic.
I'm Craaaazy about my new socks!
I wore them into work, because it's cold and rainy today.
My partner in crime at Work, J.W. has become my new knitting Photog. :)
Yes, yes... Friday is for wearing your own handknitted socks.
Weekend Plans: (just in case you were wanting to know)
Well, it's craaaazy...
I'm doing Happy Hour with Ei and her DH tonight... yay!
Saturday, I'm going to climb the other peak of Mount St. LAUNDRY accompanied by my DB Bolero...(I'm working the left front)
Sunday, I am going to Fell's Point (where I am told there is YARN...) to hang out with some peeps and homies...possibly after having lunch with Lauren!
Whew!

Complete sentences? Not on Friday.

You are so lucky to have knit buds so close to you...and that meal sounded delish!
Posted by: Amanda at June 3, 2005 11:28 AMLooks like a lot of fun... and those socks look great!
No need to scour ebay... The frog and toad books have all been reissued as paperback "icanread" books. You should be able to find them on a spinning rack at your local MegaloBookMart.
