target: knitting

It seems that knitting and yarn are every where. I was in Target yesterday, and granted, this is an enormous Target, the kind with everything including a Starbucks, but they had yarn, needles, project books and knitting journals! And every item was $1. I wasn't tempted, though. I have so many unfinished projects, so many un-begun projects, so many patterns and books, and so many solitary skeins in my stash that I just can't add to the mayhem. I'm going to have to organize my knitting. *faint* ;)

I have had a hankering to knit lately. It isn't the nip in the air; there is none. The weather is only slightly cooler here in the desert. Autumn doesn't really begin around here until late November. It could be the plethora of knitting catalogs delivered daily. I spied quite a few delicious projects thumbing through them and quite a few yarns seem very yummy. I'm going to be strong, though. I must, I must, I must finish David's sweater. (how many years has it been, Jen?)

Now, if you'll excuse me while I knit . . .

Katrina Knitters

Christine, over at Big Pink Cookie and who lives in Houston, is collecting knitted items for the victims of Hurricane Katrina who have been relocated to her area. Head on over to her blog and drop her a note in one of her Katrina Knitters posts so she'll let you know where to send your items.

Thanks, Christine!
