happy 4th of july weekend!

i'm happy the 4th falls on sunday so we get monday off. that is just excellent. i like love extended weekends.

so i did something i NEVER do in the morning. i got up and watched tv. i came across it while surfing the many knit blogs i look through every few days. i tried to set my vcr to record it last night (btw, the time listed is eastern, it was on at 7 a.m. here). unfortunately with all the electronics tied to my new digital cable box, i could not get the program feature of the vcr to work. it was a good show, this was just the beginning knitting one. i did find it interesting though - they said knitting continental goes faster. i may have to try that someday.

i took some pics last night of my stash. i have two categories 1-good stuff, 2- leftovers or not so good stuff. the top is good stuff.

the above contains some of my fav yarns. i have some noro silk garden, mexican wave and rowan big wool. these are yarns that have no specific projects associated to them yet. that is where the danger lies, buying yarn for no reason. i have tried to stop that lately!

the above is mostly leftover yarn, but you can see the blue mohair that was supposed to be the rowan birch i mentioned in an earlier post. obviously that isn't in my current queue of things to knit.

i am working on 3 things now. i hope to have 2 of them done by monday, but we will see. have a good 4th!
