Way back in the days, over 3 years ago when I started this blog, I used to blog every day, or close to it.
\nWhat the hell did I talk about?!? Did I log on and say “I did 10 rows of my scarf today”?
\nSome days it’s hard to find something to blog about. Especially when you’re knitting stocking stitch socks in self striping yarn.
\nBut they’re growing.

\"\"<\/a><\/center>
\nNot exactly exciting breakthroughs, but they’re 6ply yarn, so at least they’re relatively quick. The only other thing I have on the needles is the Cocoon Lace scarf. Mind you, that’s growing, too.

\nThe colour in that pic is pretty accurate on my monitor.
\nThis is a pretty easy pattern to follow. It’s a 12 row repeat, which is fairly easy to memorise. I did get a little bored with the same old, same old though, so I pulled out the provisional cast on and did the edging, just for kicks.

\n(This pic is too pink.)
\nAll this repetitive knitting is starting to get the better of me, and I can feel a bout of startitis creeping up!
\nTapestry Craft in Sydney is having Nicky Epstein book signing on Friday afternoon, but it doesn’t start until 3.30pm, which of course is the worst time of day for me, and I can’t attend.
\nBut Ozknitter<\/a> took pity on me! She saw Nicky at the Melbourne Stitches and Craft show last week, and kindly offered to pick up a copy of the book and have Nicky sign it for me.

\nI haven’t had a really good look at it yet, but a quick flick through looks gorgeous. Thank you, Ozknitter!
\nAnd finally, I was walking past Em’s bedroom the other day and spotted Roxie. I had to go fetch the camera.

\nShe looks like she’s recovering from a hard night out!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
