2KCBWDAY7 - Knitting Time


Day 7: Your Knitting or Crochet time

I have no clue why, but the title of today's post made me think of this video, and I feel the need to include it:


Anyway, as this is my first time doing KCBW, I've really enjoyed connecting with lots of other bloggers. I appreciate every single comment you all have left, and I really hope you keep coming back to my little blog, as I will be keeping up with all of yours!

Now, on to today's post....

I will admit, I'm a TV knitter. Either TV or music. But for some reason, if it's too quiet, I have a hard time concentrating. And that goes with everything - in college, I could never study unless I had music going, and I've been known to sing along with the music playing while my head is buried in a book. There is, of course, music playing as I type this. My favorite knitting spot is our couch, with a cup of tea and two kitties snuggled up at my side (although it gets a little hard to knit when the cats actually crawl in my lap.... and I wonder why everything I make is covered in cat hair from the time it is finished). Lately, I've been watching the old seasons of Grey's Anatomy on Netflix, because it's something that I don't really have to pay attention to. Music-wise, my knitting has been full of The Decemberists newest album, The King is Dead , Horse Feathers, and sometimes I'll stream our local NPR station. I have been known to knit in public, even though people make fun of me, and I almost always have knitting with me in case I need it. My favorite place to knit outside my house is my parents house. They have this great wood stove with a super comfy chair in front of it, and I love curling up there and knitting away.



So, that's it! My first KCBW done! I really enjoyed reading everyone else's blogs, and seriously hope you enjoyed mine as well - come back again soon! And stay tuned for the second half of Pearl The Yarn Destroyer - it will be coming next week! I had so much fun with it, I think it, or something similar, is going to become a semi-regular feature, so be on the lookout!

  4. I just posted on how I knit and tv watch, sometimes a little guiltily! I've enjoyed your week of nonstop knitting posts. It's funny how much those topics reveal about people.
