I was thinking about how it had been (gulp) 2 weeks since I last posted this morning, when one of my favourite lines* from Boogie Nights popped into my head. It's from the scene when Dirk is practicing his lines in front of the mirror at the end of the movie. There he is, in all his cheesy-eighties-porn-star glory, and he scrounges up every ounce of his acting ability to ask "Where the f**k is Ringo?".
I'm here, friends. I'm here.
Adaptation to the new schedule continues, however, and I confess I'm having a little trouble finding the will time to do anything beyond taking care of the family unit lately. The good news is that I'm knitting up a storm, however, and I've even put in a few evenings on the sewing machine as well, so I won't lack for blog fodder. We'll get there.
In the meantime, how 'bout we take a peak at my Rhinebeck purchases?
Miss Babs Northumbia Hand-Painted 4 ply BFL Yarn (437 yds). Colour: Squash Blossom.
Foxhill Farm Cormo Cross, 100% wool (410 yds). Two skeins.
Sanguine Gryphon Bugga! (412 yds). Two skeins: Robberfly and Rhinocerous Beetle colourways.
Miss Babs Northumbia Naked 4 ply BFL (240 yds). Colour: Luna Granite (2 skeins), Moss (1 skein)
Spirit Train Fiberworks "Sunna" (350 yds). Colour: Aquitaine (2 skeins)
Miss Babs Yowza Whatta Skein 100% Superwash Merino (560 yds). Colour Lady Bug (2 skeins)
The Sincere Sheep Keen 100% BFL Superwash (465 yds). Colour: Milpa.
The only question is what will I cast on with first? Any suggestions? :)
Happy Knitting, Everyone!
* Sure, most people remember what comes AFTER that line (that'd be when he finally reveals his... um... assets. Ahem.)
