Dawn Brocco's Life & Design Blog

Worked a bit on the cabled cardigan Saturday and yesterday. Though I have another sample of a design to knit in the Alpaca Boucle, I don't think I can get to it until after this eye undilates in about 6 weeks, as a lot of it is black and the boucle really does need better eyesight than my current sight to knit it. The Peace Fleece stitch setup is such that I can knit without looking all the time. The hardest part is doing the cable crossing rows, but it's do-able.

I got the edits inserted for my new design booklet and will print up a few copies today. It's been on hold too long already and really needs to get out there for this autumn/winter season.

I had no appetite whilst being on those meds, but my appetite is back now! Hubby made a nice dinner last night and I still managed to finish off a slice of pound cake topped with chocolate ice cream and chocolate syrup on top! That went done real easy - too easy! I had lost 6 lbs lying on this couch those 2 weeks, not eating much. 3 lbs of it was water, which I gained back right away after stopping the meds and being up and about. I'd prefer, though, NOT to gain back the remaining 3 lbs! So, no pound cake and ice cream tonight!

Hi Maus!
I've never listened to books on tape, preferring to read the actual book itself, but as it will be awhile before I can comfortably read large amounts of text, I may give the tapes a try. Thanks for telling me about Diane Duane. I hadn't heard of her.

Well, work awaits. So, I gotta get going on the day and see how far I can go.
