It seems to be intermittent, but I have it!  Any is better than none!<\/p>\n<p>I did learn something about myself, though.  I&#8217;ve been blaming the internet for me staying up too late.  However, with no internet, I actually stayed up later doing other projects.  One knitting project in particular I had had in mind since a friend had a new baby enter her life, and I had even ordered the yarn for it and was figuring out the best way to do it.  Well, the yarn arrived, and I charted the design, did the math, wrote up the pattern, and knitted the item last night.  I won&#8217;t tell you how late I was up, as my mother reads this blog and I don&#8217;t want her death on my hands.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll post a pic after it&#8217;s safely in the recipient&#8217;s hands.  Or maybe over in the knitting community &#8211; the colorwork wasn&#8217;t my best, but I&#8217;m still pleased with how it turned out.<\/p>\n<p>In other knitting news, I finished the mondo scarf.  The hubby was out of town, so I had to make do with a secondary digital camera.  No, I am not complaining about having to use the second digital camera.  That&#8217;s like complaining about having to take the year-old Porsche out for a spin because the new one&#8217;s in the shop.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tvini.org\/images\/style\/Jaynescarf2.jpg\" \/> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tvini.org\/images\/style\/Jaynescarf1.jpg\" \/><\/p>\n<p>I took copious notes, and snapped pics of the inside and of attaching the fringe so that I can work up a tutorial or pattern should anyone else be interested.  Double-knitting is good stuff.  It&#8217;s on its way now to a Browncoat in Canada, and I hope its double thickness keeps her toasty warm in style.<\/p>\n<p>The hubby has arrived back home from his trip out of town, and I am happy.  Now we can watch the Arrested Developments I recorded on Friday.  Assuming I don&#8217;t fall asleep first.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I have internet access!
