The actual move took two days, but the settling in has taken quite a bit longer. Everything is pretty much where I want it to be now. I'm almost totally settled in. There are a few things here and there that I'm missing, but I'm sure, with time, I'll take care of it. The important thing is that I start making it my home.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_NF69PusVcLQ/SEXBr5HoyTI/AAAAAAAAAgc/FBxFEfgJcek/s1600-h/IMG_4126.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_NF69PusVcLQ/SEXBr5HoyTI/AAAAAAAAAgc/FBxFEfgJcek/s400/IMG_4126.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5207781503935236402" border="0" /></a>For one thing, I think I need larger wall coverings... my tiny Monet poster is almost comical on my huge empty wall.<br /><br />My knitting room is only missing a small side table that I think would be perfect next to the chair.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_NF69PusVcLQ/SEXC35HoyVI/AAAAAAAAAgs/xiveZZssHxo/s1600-h/IMG_4124.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_NF69PusVcLQ/SEXC35HoyVI/AAAAAAAAAgs/xiveZZssHxo/s400/IMG_4124.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5207782809605294418" border="0" /></a>After all, notions need to be placed somewhere while you're working. Come to think of it, so does a cup of tea!<br /><br />As surprising as it may seem, I've actually done some knitting through all this. For one thing, I've finished more dishcloth's than I can possibly count. I made myself some, and then my old roommate wanted some, so I made her about a bazillion.<br /><br />I also finished up a pair of socks that have been on the needles for an eternity. Ok, not an eternity...only since last October, but for me, that's a long time.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp2.blogger.com/_NF69PusVcLQ/SEXE95HoyWI/AAAAAAAAAg0/Qu717zGN18I/s1600-h/IMG_4129.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp2.blogger.com/_NF69PusVcLQ/SEXE95HoyWI/AAAAAAAAAg0/Qu717zGN18I/s400/IMG_4129.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5207785111707765090" border="0" /></a><br />I made them toe-up so that I could have knee socks. I absolutely love them. They're out of Lorna's Laces sock yarn and they're divine!<br /><br />I also started some boot socks out of some yarn I picked up at Rhinebeck last year. They're the Spiral Boot Socks out of Interweave Knits.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://bp0.blogger.com/_NF69PusVcLQ/SEXFkZHoyXI/AAAAAAAAAg8/G6mShDV9eSw/s1600-h/IMG_4128.JPG"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://bp0.blogger.com/_NF69PusVcLQ/SEXFkZHoyXI/AAAAAAAAAg8/G6mShDV9eSw/s400/IMG_4128.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5207785773132728690" border="0" /></a>The true color of these socks is much less washed out looking than this picture. I really can't begin to tell you how in love with this pattern I am. I just want to go out and buy a mini skirt just so I can show them off when they're done!Erinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00099894422067181971noreply@blogger.com6
