Happy New Year

[doronjosama]

Last night, we had a lovely time, with noodles (for good fortune) at Pho Cong Ly and then much hanging out with friends. I received a late Xmas present of a Hello Kitty juicer, which I am both delighted and scared by. My kitchen skills are weak... ^_^;

Today, I have learned how to purl. I have almost conquered the stockinette stitch. Is the knitted chunk supposed to curl up or am I doing something horribly wrong? Because it gets all curly at the bottom...

Today I am also working on Genus: Male #5.

Also, I cannot stop eating Best Maid baby dill pickles. They're just too good!

Here's hoping 2006 is better than 2005.

I do think it always curls up. At least I've seen that a bunch.

OK, I thought they had run out of products to put the Hello Kitty stamp on, but...a juicer?? o__O;; Next thing you know, they'll put the HK logo on a satellite or rocket booster.... I'm surprised it hasn't been put on an airline yet....

But hope youse guys down there have a great 2006! I've already had one pleasant surprise today, so it's starting well up here. ^_^

Hmm... a hello kitty juicer? That's a new one.

Knitting... I had to give that up long ago. All I could ever do is make one long string. I could never figure out how to twist it back around to make it thicker. Ah well ^_-

And yes, here's to 2006 being a much better year!

it's not a bug, it's a feature

yes, stockinette curls - toward the purl side on the sides,
and toward the knit side at the top and bottom. hence
all those stockinette sweaters with ribbing on the bottom.

do you still have the teletubbie hat i made you? i believe
that had a rolled bottom, due to its being worked in
stockinette.
