yarnbombs away!

so i'm still making crocheted flowers for my spring yarnbomb this year. i've got half a bowl full already and going to be making more tonight at knitclub, if it is not raining that is...as i've got a meeting in covent garden after work and i am wearing the new camel suede ankle boots that i bought to go with the maxi dress i wore to trader vic's for mister blondeboy's birthday.

i really miss my knitclub friends...

lumplift?

The hospital was weird. Need to make a decision about the lump that is there - get it sorted or get another lift at the same time...luckily was only at the clinic for just over 2 hours but did have 3 sets of tests and saw 2 consultants so pretty much value for money!

Then headed straight to knitclub - combining work with fun is always good. I love that there are so many geeky girls there. Sat outside til around 10pm drinking white wine and ginger beer and just not wanting to go home...thanks so much to all the wednesday night girls/boys for getting me through the post hospital haze. Love you all so much!

Went home and spent ages on the phone with the scandotoy.
He's going to come over and be here for me when I decide to get the lumplift.
Despite everything it is sorted

birthday suit

tonight at knitclub was so lovely - not been to an iknit evenin in ages and it was so lovely to catch up with everyone and make new friends again, but also to teach my friend jo the birthday girl! she is an amazingly quick learner and her crochettension was perfecto...such a pleasure to watch her churning out stitches. i've created another happyhooker! and i've convinced all the girls to bring our crochet out to the charlotte street hotel tomoro night...posh cocktails stitch and birthday bitch.

another night another knitclub...

...but of course with my usual twist!

i am so loving watching my worlds collide. my techie digital girlies coming along to knitclub and hanging out with my new bestest ever knitbuddy as well as the man with the legendary legs at transnight at the bar and drinking margaritas to toast my good health news...then sitting at waterloo station stealing some cop's french fries.

same bat time, same bat channel.

work/knit club

my old boss that now works at work club sent me this link to his work's blog about knitblubclub and iknit...so my blog now links to his blog...its like all part of my life have now connected, lol!

didn't make it tonight and am already feeling the loneliness...

see you all in a couple weeks!

vive le crochet (sp?)

i made it to wednesday knit night. went all by myself, which is something i wouldn't normally do - i hate to even go for coffee by myself, but i did it! and i made loads of new friends - some on ravelry, some from the neighbourhood, and some from work club of all places! (work club is the digital agency that poached my boss about 6months back, lol...they were doing a photoshoot)


...and most of my new friends are crocheters!
yes we were takin' over this evening! it was really fun.
hope i can make it down on wednesdays again to meet up with them all more.

now back to makin' myself some cuddly wuddly doo-dah scarves.
this having short hair in winter thing demands it!

ch ch ch changes...

change of plans...maybe.

an old punker friend from the 80s is now coming to stay with me this week from thursday night rather than just coming for a pirate party on halloween. so if i can't take her with me to the vodka client party, then we may be dropping by knit night later on!

either way i'll still try to make wednesday just in case stash is going as now i'm seeing her every week i'll miss her if i don't!

another thursday

at knitclub and still loving it!

next week i have to go to a party for our vodka client so i'll probably try to go on wednesday instead after my hospital appointment. will be interesting to see what crowd it is and what they are all making...

this week was more squares for my skull and crossbones afghan.
rafrasilecs bought me some more yarn so i've added in some lilac to the patchwork mix.

photos coming soon i promise x

knitclub

...the first rule of knitclub is you HAVE to talk about knitclub!

yes i finally made it down to iknit's thursday night to catch up with an old friend, make lots of new ones, and ensure my knit date finally learned how.

it was a really great, relaxing night and i am really looking forward to heading back there again!

spent the time making another skull and crossbone crocheted square for the afghan that i want to finish before the fiance moves in...we were going to use this weekend to go look at flooring and furniture/storage for the spare bedroom, but the weather forecast is looking good here in london so instead the days will probably be spent in one of the royal parks.

indoor pursuits can wait til winter...*wink*
