Facelift

Well, I haven't yet figured out how to get the pictures from my phone onto my computer, and I've got a loooong to-do list to finish up before I go out of town on Wednesday, so it's not likely to happen before I leave. But I did figure out how to change some colors and stuff, to make this blog a bit prettier (and a bit more "me"). So, enjoy!

Rest assured, I'm working hard to find a good sweater pattern to work while I'm at my denomination's Big Meeting in Connecticut. And I will take WIP pictures of whatever pattern I choose. Maybe you'll even get to see them someday.

Until then, please enjoy this picture I found on my harddrive, from the 2005 Iowa State Fair. No, I have no idea who those people are. (Hi, People! I hope you don't mind being posted on my blog!)

Slowly improving

My one-year Blogiversary has come and gone completely unnoticed. My poor, poor, neglected blog!

The good news is twofold, however.
1. I got a new (free!) phone. It has a built-in camera. I've already started taking WIP pictures and other knitting-related pix, and as soon as I can figure out how to get them from phone to computer, I will post them here.
2. I've been knitting! Actually knitting! I just finished the most adorable pair of baby pants for a church friend's newly-one-year-old boy. I did them in an olive green superwash wool. They're wayyyyy too big for him still, but it doesn't even matter. The pants are adorable, Baby Ben is adorable, and it will all work out in the end.

Also, the new Knitty is up. It's about dang time!

My technology guru (read: fiance) is going out of town tomorrow, and then I will also be going out of town late next week. I may or may not be able to figure out how to post the pictures on my own. If I can, I will do it before I begin my travels. If not, you're going to have to wait until I come back and I will make Joel do it. That's what technology gurus are for, isn't it?
