About Me
- Name: Justy
- Location: BC, Canada
I'm the proud Momma of "Son" who was born at home in Aug 2003.
I discovered eBooks back in 2005 when I got my iPaq 2490. Once I discovered I could have as many books as I wanted with me all the time without breaking my back I was hooked. The best thing is the development of eInk eBook Readers, specifically the Cybook and BeBook. Much nicer on my eyes, I don't think I'll ever go back to paper books again. In fact I still have a paperback to finish that I started in December 2007, just before I got my Cybook. I may have to find it in eBook format. :)

Just a simple little blog to talk about my knitting, my cats, my wonderful son, and perhaps other things in my life.

Picture Day
It's time for more pictures. The pictures are just snapshots really, I took them on my living room table. But I did want to share my works in progress with you. I've gone fancy and started to include bigger versions of my pictures, just click on the small image to see a larger picture.
Haiku waiting for it's sleeves to be attached.
The child sized Einstein coat with the bottom panel and top right front completed. The needles are in the stitches for the top back. I included the blue and green sleeve yarns in this picture so you could see how all the colours will go together. This sweater is knitting up so quickly with the chunky yarn and lack of distractions. I might even make another one in a bigger size for my nephew. I saw a cute blue/green variegated colourway in the same yarn that would look good on him, and his little brother of course.
