I love dancing. My friend the elf is a very talented dancer (Kate calls him Baxter but I call him dancing queen).
He gets especially excited this time of year because the holidays are just around the corner. Everyone in the office keeps talking about quick gifts to knit. They have lots of good ideas like coffee cup cozies,… Continue

When I saw all the Santa hats everyone here in the office knit with our new free pattern, I couldn't resist trying them on.
After I picked my favorite, I invited Sheldon, the Fosters,… Continue
We were setting up the new sock KAL . It's really fun, you can get free patterns and show off the socks you've knit. And there are lots of knitters who've made man… Continue
Did you guys see that our yarn sale just started this morning? You can get 38% off on over 150 colors, but you have to shop before next Thursday at 9am my time.
Who is ready to knit? Do you have your yarn? Are your needles ready? Alison and Angela helped me make this little motivational video to help you get psyched to knit!
Whew! Are you as excited as I am about this contest?
Oh yeah, Angela asked me to tell you that she is going to post the pattern on 2/2/09 and get this contest started. So be sure to check the blog on Monday! Continue
I know it's been awhile since I posted, but my schedule has been packed lately!
Kelley, Tina and I went to Stitches a couple weeks ago, and then last Friday we hit up the Knit and Crochet show in Portland with some of the girls from the office. It's nice getting out of the… Continue

I don't know about you, but I love a good party.
A couple weekends ago, while we were in Canda, Mom and Dad and I hosted a birthday pizza party for our friend Luke in a suite we rented at the Ocean Promenade hotel in White Rock. We invited a lot of Australian pro golfers. When I'm the hostess I prefer to hang back and let my guests come to me. See me in Kelley's knitting corner with Ben?

This morning Alison video taped my morning routine. Believe it or not, I didn't even have any coffee first, but I did have 4 cheerios for a morning snack.
Videos are fun! Have you seen our sock blank video yet?
I don't know if I'm supposed to tell you yet, but I've heard Tina and Al… Continue

Like this week Karen was working on this mystery quilt. I r… Continue

I went to Philadelphia last weekend. I got to fly on an airplane. I didn't see the Liberty Bell or eat any Philly cheesesteaks, but I did get to meet my cousins for this first time. I met James, Emily, Michael, and Jeffrey. Hi guys!
I got peanut butter this morning. It was quite delicious. Dad's out of town so Mom and I are on our own for a couple of days. I'm taking good care of her. Even if I did let her eat Cocoa Krispies for dinner last night. She's been working hard lately putting… Continue
I think I got back just in the nick of time. Our sister company, Connecting Threads, needed my puzzle prowess to help figure out these two new quilt inspired jigsaw puzzles they just got in stock. I don't like to brag, but I'm great at puzzles. We ha… Continue
