I'm not going to say too much about these pictures, but just wanted to give you a peek into some of what I've been working on. Hooray for ... http://www.thisisknit.com/2007/start-it-up "Time is the longest distance between two places" - T. Williams A confluence of events resulted in my long absence from blogging life. The precipitating factor, of course, was my lack of internet connection (not even dial-up, people) for an extended period of time. You really don't want to ... http://www.thisisknit.com/2007/life-and-other-things I started the coat, only halfway into winter.

I've been taking a little breather from the knitting (and blogging) life for a while. But it's been rejuvinating, and lately I've caught myself eyeing the yarn again.
