Purlewe Knits

My favorite organic cotton yarn. It is the wonderful color grown stuff that I’m using for the turtles and for the baby blankets.

This is it stash monkeys. Give it up. I will not issue another warning!

ETA:

ok, false alarm. I was seriously going through every bag of yarn I own, no small task, looking for it. I thought to check the order receipt (got to love the technology the keeps this stuff for me) and *gasp* I’m out! Horrible, horrible cause this is MY FAVORITE YARN. How can I be out?!? Good, though, yes, I said good! BECAUSE *drumroll* that means I’ve made some progress. AND yes, yes I have made progress. I have two naked turtle bodies, two unstuffed turtle legs, and one beautiful baby blanket 3/4 of the way complete.

Now to order more …

I’m listening to Animal Vegtable Mineral by Barbara Kingsolver.

I want to be a real housewife. I want to make my own cheese.

one.

Something in your life has changed when you no longer consider a shower everyday necessary. I mean I’d really like to take a shower every day. I feel better after showering, but it just doesn’t always happen and now, I just don’t mind.

two.

socks. I’m knitting sock from Winter Holiday. 5 pairs. I started my gauge swatch last night. Think I can do it? I have 5ish months. Remember, I have twins. I also have other things to knit before then. I want to finish the turtles and bears. I also want to knit them another stuffie for our Winter Gift Day. I want to finish their blankets before them. There’s also the winter sweaters to be done … ambitious? Maybe.

Off to skip the shower and go knit.

What a beautiful day it is! My little girls are one!

planning one of those a year in picture things … but right now they are sleeping and I want to knit … priorities!

I have two of them.

Aren’t they the cutest?

I spoon fed them for the first time today. They have been on antibiotics for a week and I feel the need to get some good buggies in there. I’ve had issues getting the probiotics in the past, so today I mixed them with applesauce. The girls didn’t think it was too terribly aweful and now we have good flora.
