not only knitting

you know when those weird coincidences happen? the ones that kind of make you think it must mean something? i had one of those today.

i was getting all geared up to right a post about all the crafty things i used to do when i realized it had been exactly a year since this post. that is just too strange. needless to say, not much has changed, although i did manage to create a couple creative parties. other than that it remains mostly about the knitting.


of course all this musing came from the release of the new martha products (thanks amanda for the tip the other night!). these are the type of products i used to horde. and i probably still would if i didn't horde another little thing called yarn!

anyways, blah blah blah, i had all this stuff written about my old job (i managed a papyrus store for 5 years) and how i was a paper snob and how i miss having a job that i loved but don't miss retail etc. but i won't go there now. just look at the pretty martha stuff (ok so i probably bought more than string and cupcake liners).

and i'll be including this blurb in most of my may posts for those that didn't catch it before (although i know a lot of you did, thanks for all the wonderful comments on the last couple posts!)...

if you have been reading this blog for awhile you know that may is my blogiversary month! i'll officially hit 3 years at the end of this month. it boggles my mind. as you know, i have done some give aways in celebration and this year will be no different. i haven't worked out prizes (but duh! you know stitch markers will be involved!) but i will say that i highly encourage you to leave comments in may. i will actually be keeping track of all the comments and my contest will somehow revolve around them. so if you are a lurker i suggest you de-lurk if you want the chance at some good stuff! more details to come.

tomorrow there will be a small batch of markers for sale over on the shop blog.
