knitting, frogging and watching tele
i am posting a picture of a nearly completed clapotis, here you can get a better idea of the 'mini' version. i have two more 12 row sets before starting to decrease. hopefully that will make it long enough and i won't run out of yarn this time!
i am hoping to get further on it this evening. today's interview was disappointing, so knitting is a good release :) that and maybe a big glass of red wine!
i also have to take a few minutes to frog this ugly thing
ok, it isn't that terrible. but i don't like the midsection where i had to start a new ball of yarn and the color pattern seemed to switch (notice the lack of black after each color). no problem though, i have been meaning to knit the two color kureyon scarf from "last minute knitted gifts" anyways. this yarn will be good for that. you can see some really good examples of similar scarves at mason-dixon, crayonbrain's and bag 'n' trash.
i'm excited to see the office tonight on nbc. i am hoping it is good. then there will finally be some real "must see tv" on thursdays. of course when they do the martha version of the apprentice it will probably be on thursdays too. what a great tv night that will be!
and speaking of the tele...
I was tagged for a meme by the recently engaged linda :)
How much space is left on your TiVo or Comcast box?
well that is the thing, i don't own a TiVo or have a comcast box. but i want one! i could record all those Seinfeld and Sex and the City reruns that i love to watch!
Have you ever bought a DVD of a TV series and if so which one?
the office
What was the last TV show that you watched before reading this message?

List 5 shows you won't miss.
I try not to miss alias, scrubs, new episodes of house hunters and two and a half men. i can't think of a fifth.
Name 3 people to whom you will pass this stick.
i won't be passing this one along as i see most have already been tagged, but if you want to snag it from me drop me a comment so i can check your's out!

Sorry your interview was disappointing. I'm sure a bit of knitting will definitely clear that up! I sound like a broken record, but I love the smaller clapotis. I'll keep my fingers crossed that you'll have enough yarn this time!
I got your package yesterday...and I love everything! Thanks so much! The flower and tape measure are perfect, and you can't go wrong with peeps! Thanks again!! So I am loving the color of your new Clapotis. Yummy green yarn! You'll have to share the details on how you changed the pattern, if you don't mind. I know it's probably getting kind of old, these little coincidences, but the next thing on my list to knit is one of those stripey Noro scarves! I have three different color choices, and I just need to decide which one to use. Can't wait to see yours!!
Your clopotis is coming along beautifully! And the color is just delicious. Can't wait to see how the modified version looks finished.
Lovely Clapotis... I am interested to know how much smaller yours is than the size in the pattern...
The Office was SO funny, in my opinion. I still need to the UK one...
Have a nice weekend, and can't wait to see a finished Clap... so close you are :)

OK I have a question, How do you make a mini clapotis. I hav eto know I want to attempt to start one but I see in everyones blog that they keep frogging. is it hard to follow?
