The other little guy turned FIVE in September. It's blowing me away watching him grow and become his own person. I may be biased, but I think he's pretty awesome.
I have been getting a little knitting done, mostly small stuff. A few hats, a
couple shrugs, that sort of thing. The only thing I have a picture of right now is the Double Cap (Kat Coyle, KnitScene, Fall 2008) that I made a while back. They yarn I used was a little finer than called for in the pattern, but I think it still makes for a darn cute hat.
These pictures are from our camping trip in Homer in July. It was colder there in July than it is some places now in December. Alaska is still pretty amazing.So, I really hope to keep up with this. Maybe a New Year's resolution. Did I do that last year...? Probably. We'll see.
I also really want to kick my butt into gear and get an Etsy shop opened up. I want to have a little something coming in when I'm taking time off from my real job with the new baby.
I hope everyone has a lovely holiday season, whatever you're celebrating.

Just found your blog via knitty.com, love your socktopia! Anyway, my husband and I met in Anchorage...16 years, and two sons later. I thought I would share our oldest son's name. His name is ALDRIX, he is named after ALbert einstein and jimmy henDRIX...my husbands two favorite geniuses.
I love Aldrix! That's an awesome idea. I'll have to see if we can brainstorm something like that, my husband and I are both very into music and literature.
Knitting with unconventional fibers is so much fun! It's like discovering a whole new world of possibilities.
I never thought about knitting coasters before, but now I can't wait to try it! They'll be the perfect blend of functionality and coziness for enjoying a hot cup of tea or coffee.
