Kissy face

What goes lickity, lickity, lickity, woof? Ethan and Savannah and damn near constantly, too. I think Ef has decided Savannah is a cute girl now. She's been out nearly a week, but he puppy dogs after her, is at her beck and call, kisses her teeth (as she does his), shows her his belly (!!!), and thinks it's cute when she tries to chew his face off cuz he just plain can't leave her alone. I don't know how long this'll last, but it's been pretty nice. Efie is in love with life again and will let us do whatever we want with him...he even jumped into the bathtub all on his own for Paul to give him a bath. This is the dog we normally have to put a muzzle on for baths! Amazing!!! Puppy love is good!

In other news, I'm going to start another blog to document the more personal thing I'm going through now. If you'd like to be on the list to view it, let me know which email you'd like and I'll let you. I'm keeping it private to the rest of the world, though....and I haven't started it yet. Should be in the next few days....stay tuned...

In knitting news, I'm working on way too many projects at once. Usually three is my limit and I guess I still only have three really active ones, but I have lots to finish and lots more I want to start!

I'm a little more than halfway done on the Kureyon rainbow scarf I'm making from Last Minute Knitted Gifts. It's like the striped ones here on Flickr.

I've nearly got one retro rib sock done from Favorite Socks in Dream in Color Smooshy dusky aurora. Love that yarn!!!!!! Just haven't been thrilled about knitting socks lately. Bummer! I really want this pair of socks!

My last active project is my newest. I'm making the Fan Kimono from Knit Kimono out of Ella Rae Classic wool in sage. It is coming out really cool! And it's a kimono...it should fit all sizes! :) I'm about to add on to start the sleeves. It's an interesting construction, though very simple. It's knit in one piece starting at the back bottom edge and knitted up over the top and down the front. Again, should be interesting! Only my second sweater for me, so I'm excited!

Thanks for the invite on the other blog. You write well, BTW.

Did you mean to set it up so that only "team members" could comment? I tried to leave a note and that's what it told me.

I emailed Carolyn, but thought I better say here that I think I fixed the other blog. Again, if you're interested, let me know, and I'll invite you.

Hi I miss you, how are you doing? Happy early birthday!

Richelle, glad to see new stuff on your blog. Hope you are recovering and feeling better. May have to talk you out of a kimono, or have you help me figure out how to put it on my knitting machine (gasp, use it, after a decade??). Hugs.

Oh, you know, there are some great designs in that book that probably would work really well on a knitting machine! I sort of wish I had one...it'd make the stockinette parts go so much faster. Wouldn't work for what I'm knitting now, though, I'm afraid!
