Sorry about the sporadic blogging of late. I find myself a little fatigued these last few days and what with the tape famine and all, I just didn’t have time to blog yesterday.
Alright. So there wasn’t a tape famine. M found some tape for me yesterday and all my lovely packages were sent out today. Yay, winners!
I feel the need to stop for a moment and point out that the Mariners kicked some serious Angels ass tonight. OMG what was wrong with those guys? There were like 1987459 errors in one inning. Couldn’t believe what I was seeing. Of course, because I happen to be making fun of them right now, they will likely come back all pissed off and kick our asses so hard tomorrow that it’s not funny. Go Ichi!
I wanted to mention a book today. Poems of Color, Knitting in the Bohus Tradition. You may remember that the Yarn Harlot recently completed a Bohus sweater. I was taken by the sweater immediately, watching it take shape on her needles. But, upon attending the local knitter’s retreat, I had the chance to see Poems of Color and immediately fell in love. I wanted this book very badly but was trying to behave. I found it this past weekend; the only copy in a small store about an hour away from home. I’m in love. I must knit it all.
Both Janel and Francesca posted wonderful blog entries on the subject as they recently attended a workshop on the subject. Please take a moment to go over and drool at their pictures. Don’t forget to read the posts.

I have no desire to knit anything from that book, but I will admit to admiring the pictures.

I just got the book, too, and love it. Not sure I’m ready to knit from it yet.
