National Blog Posting Month/ Ten on Tuesday

Okay. I am not going to promise anything. I am going to do my best, how's that♥ I am already a day late. I think it's hard to come up with something everyday. So, I am going to start with 10 on Tuesday. I have been thinking of making my own version of this. But Yen, this one's for you! Besides this one should be so easy for me.

10 Ways to Waste Time on the Internet

1
. Biggest one for me is "RAVELRY" need I say more.

2. Most of mine will be in the form of Knit or Crochet site
so next after Ravelry for me would be Knitty.com

3. Another one for me would have to be "Twist Collective"
They have some of the greatest pattern you'll find. The photography is amazing

4. I can't leave out Loopy Ewe and Sanguine Gryphon

5. Woolmeise has to have their very own category

6. See how easy this is for me... next up "Flicker"

7. of course there "Facebook"

8. almost forgot about "YouTube"

9. Twitter,,, no words LOL

10. I have to put my own blog here..2Sistahs Knit Together always something to do or see or say..

Whew.. that wasn't so hard... now just have 27 more days to go♥

In Knitting news
... I am still working on my 2@time socks, just started the legs. I made it this far. Now I can't take it any more. I have separated them. I think I like magic loop better. I fought those needles so much. I even mistakenly knitted the wrong yarn on the wrong sock..I will be just happy when they are finished. I got the lace pattern from my new Wendy Johnson, 'Socks from the Toe Up' Diagonal Lace Sock Pattern. I am loving this book. I want to make a lot of them. I was lucky enough to get a signed copy from her book signing at Knit Happens.

These bands make me think about a oldies band that I use to play to death that I forgot about and recently heard and it brought back so many memories of my younger days.so of course I searched on You Tube to see if I could find . I couldn't find the song that I wanted . It's called, "You and I", Bet yall don't remember this group 'Switch'... I think they only had one album. This was also a good song and will have to do for now.



That's it.. Have a good week, I still have fond memories of the past weekend MDSW( I noticed this year they are spelling it MSWF.

Ten on Tuesday/Weekend

I was in Chapel Hill for the past weekend. I also went to Durhram. I was lucky enough to go to Cozy's. It was a miracle how I got to go there. I was staying with some friends and they decided to take a ride to Durham for some shopping. Before we left I did a quick search to see if there were any yarn shops. I found Cozy's and didn't think I would get to go there. Luckily we went on Nineth Street to do the shopping and I didn't even realize that was where Cozy's was. While they shopped I headed down to 770 and found Cozy's. I can't believe how happy that made me. I didn't tell them, becuase they are non yarn folks. I managed to meet some cool knitters there and they were both making Clapotis. Amazingly that's what my next project is going to be.




Nissa greeted me at the door and Randi showed me the yarn section.
She helped me select yarn. She and Abbey were working on a Clapotis









I can't show the yarn I bought yet.
I think I will save it for a Christmas present:D
