Hockey, My troubles with Legalese, and some Gratuitous Yarn Shots







Tonight is a normal night at home. Husbando and I are in our Shark's Jerseys and we are yelling at the TV. Ivan can't stand it and so he starts squeaking at the TV. I gave him a Wheat Thin, but it only silenced him for about 15 seconds.



Let me vent quickly about my troubles with legalese, or legal writing. I am a creative person. I never was the greatest essay writer, and if you have made it through more than one of my blog posts, you probably can tell that it is a good thing I have a day job.. "Therefore, your request is not in alignment with our goals for ____" Therefore.. according to the merits of your case.. you are not in compliance with the requirements stated therein.. It really just isn't my style. Oh well.

And now.. What am I working on? Well, let me tell you! I am making the cutest baby boy hoodie ever! My best friend's daughter had one made for her in white, and I have been looking for this pattern for a while. Here is a link to the Robin Hood Sweater, by Zoe Mellor and her book Adorable Knits for Tots: http://www.amazon.com/dp/0873498526/ref%3Dasc_df_0873498526745710/%3Ftag%3Daskcomel-20%26creative%3D380333%26creativeASIN%3D0873498526%26linkCode%3Dasn

There are some beautiful cable crosses in this pattern, and other than the easy moss stitch on the edges, it is only a 4 row pattern. You can see a beautiful finished object on Jennifer's Website: http://loopyknitter.wordpress.com/2008/10/30/robin-hood-jacket-2/
Visit her site and tell her how cute the Jacket is!

Here is the photo I have so far. I am hoping to finish the back tomorrow. This next week, we are going to be working on getting paint, and painting our new house!! Also, I have to get up at 4:00 for work on Wednesday and Thursday, so no promises on hearing from me this week, but I will try. Have a great week!
