Young Adam, a gritty, kinda sexy film about a drifter during the 1950’s in Scotland.
Toddlers in Tiaras yup.
Bridget the crazy cousin and I took a long-awaited trip to Lion Brand’s Outlet store in the “wilds” of Carlstadt, NJ. There we sat and relaxed (well, I did, Bridget and her mom did more shopping than I.) I also met Tara, a viewer, and her friend Courtney, who has a blog called http://www.nonlinearknitting.com Nonlinear Knitting.
What the Hay!
Cleo gave me the run around, and refused to comply until the instructor intervened.
Norbert is clearly not motivated, despite my best efforts.
The Summer Top knit and crochet along is still going, as I haven’t touched my top since a few rows last week. How sad is that?

Twisted Strands 77: Beaky Goodness
New to the stash:
Nirvana, by Feza Yarns, a 100% bamboo, plied yarn, DK weight. Reminds me of the beach with its mix of pretty colors.
You spin me right round, baby!
Alpaca white single and Bitsy knits multicolor phat fiber samples spun on spindle, approx 30 yards, would say it’s a dk/sport weight, haven’t checked its wraps per inch at all though.
