| upcoming changes |
I know my posts have been a bit sporadic lately, and there is a good reason for that. I've been working hard behind the scenes setting up a new blog over at Wordpress.
I'm posting this announcement here in advance to inform everyone that my blog address will be changing as of Wednesday, October 1 2008.
What does this mean for you?
If you visit me by entering http://www.jeloca.com into a web browser- this changes NOTHING for you. My new blog will be sent to my actual website, so you can keep visiting me there, and you will see all the fancy new changes.
If you visit me by entering http://www.jeloca.blogspot.com into a web browser OR through Bloglines OR any other feed reader- you will need to update your link. I will make the new address available on September 30th before I go to bed. :)
Why bother making the switch? As of October 1st not only will the blog have moved, but there will be new features available. The look will be cleaner and more organized, and there will also be patterns! Both my free patterns and my sale patterns will be posted.
I hope to see you on the new site, and will post the new address the night before. See you soon!Labels: admin |

| kat-tun |
You people are good!  I can't believe it was guessed! And by two of you, no less! Good job! Yes, I actually knit a Japanese "boy band". During Secret Pal 12, my pal posted the following photo, with the explanation that it was a band she loved and she wished she could go see playing (they were in Japan at the time).
 Seeing those cute little cartoony figures reminded me of the Pocket Pal I'd knit for Jakob a loooong time ago (Ravelry link), and I had a brain-wave. I'd knit her her very own boy band!
I used the basic shape of the Pocket Pal design, and changed the colors/clothing to reflect the cartoon figures.
All the KAT-TUN members were knit with scraps of Anchor and DMC embroidery floss, and on size 2.5mm needles.
If I knit more Pocket Pals with floss I would go down to a 2.25mm or even a 2mm needle, as I found them a little loose when stuffing. However, I think my next batch would be with worsted weight yarn, to have larger toys for my kids to play with.
 AKANISHI JIN He was the first one I completed, and I realized belatedly that he should have long sleeves, and not short sleeves, as I accidentally knit.
 NAKAMARU YUICHIYou can barely tell, but I actually knit his pants in fair isle to get the plaid effect of the original.
 TANAKA KOKIIf I were to change the pattern, I would only work 2 rows of the white shirt, instead of 4. I find it wider than the illustration and it bugs me. You can't see it in this photo, but I actually used silver floss for the chain hanging around his waist.
 KAMENASHI KAZUYAI had fun with this one, although his hair left much to be desired. If you look closely, you can even see the fringe I embroidered below his leather jacket!
 TAGUCHI JUNNOSUKEI should have stuffed this one more, but misjudged how much I would actually need. Luckily he's so busy with his funky jacket and pink waist-scarf, that you can barely tell. UEDA TATSUYA I struggled with how to include the gauzy over-shirt this guy is wearing, but in the end I decided to omit it. My photo doesn't show it, but I did include the white patches on each shoulder.  Here's the back view of the 6. Please ignore the jog on the black & white striped shirt!
Here's the group shot with all 6 lined up in front of their respective cartoon icons. I am very pleased with how they turned out, but they weren't for me, after all...
Want to know what my secret pal thought? To see her reaction, and the cute box I sent them in, click here.

| strangeness |
I tried posting a few times on Saturday and for some reason I could read other Blogger blogs, but not connect to my own. Weird!
I just realized I never showed you the finished BSJ, nor my recent progress on the Pinwheel Blankie (which might actually end up finished this week!). I need to clear some room on my camera's memory card, but check this space for those photos very soon!Labels: Baby Surprise Jacket, FO, Pinwheel Blanket, WIP |

| thank yous all around |
First of all, a big THANK YOU! to those who left me comments, both here and privately, wishing me a happy birthday. I don't remember if I replied to everyone personally, but I appreciate it all the same.
I spent a quiet birthday at work with Jakob and my dad, then passed the night away in my hairstylist's chair having my highlights redone. Nothing like a good cut and blow-dry to make a woman feel new again!
In the birthday spirit, I wanted to share some gifts I got recently.
Last Sunday Yannick and I did some shopping. We finally spent a store credit we'd amassed when returing some duplicate wedding gifts waaaay back in 2006, and picked up some nice household items. Before returning home Yannick decided to treat me to a little anniversary gift. See, we'd decided that since we have a lot of home renovations to do before the new baby comes, we wouldn't do our usual "go all out" on each other's anniversary/birthday gifts this year. We'd put the money towards our renos and just go out for dinner and a movie for each birthday. Last week I took him to see The Dark Knight on Wednesday and then out for dinner for calmari and fondu (mmm) on Friday.
Well, he decided that a little anniversary gift was in order. We have been following the traditional gift lists and exchanged paper gifts last year for our first anniversary. Anniversary # 2 is...cotton! (How perfect for a knitter?) We went out yarn/pattern shopping, on the provisions that a) the pattern be for me, and b) the yarn have cotton in it, preferably as the main "ingredient".
We found something!
 The pattern is Waves of Lace (Rav link) by Ilga Leja, and we bought enough yarn so I can make myself the tank top only. We thought it would be perfect to wear over a black or white tank, and go with either jeans, dressy pants or even (gasp!) a skirt. I always hesitate to buy blue yarn for tops even though I know it will be nice with my eyes, because I always wear blue or black pants and am afraid of looking like a bruise. I was going to choose a dark brown shade instead...however, Yannick convinced me. I really wanted a yarn that would be a bit slinky and dressy, not just a workhorse cotton. This Sirdar Duets yarn (Rav link) was the perfect weight and I think the shiny sections will give the tank just enough "oomph" without being too formal. Plus I can always order more yarn and make the shawl if I want.
On Tuesday night we had the first MKG meeting of the year, and Robyn brought me a gift bag stuffed with tissue paper. Being the anticipation-whore that I am, I insisted on resisting opening it until my actual birthday (Thursday). When I finally did open it, this is what I found:
 See a theme? Robyn knows I love ladybugs. :) There is ladybug-dyed sock yarn (of secret source, for now), a ladybug yarn cutter, some ladybug buttons, a pendant needle gauge and some Udderly SMOOth udder cream which matches the ladybug red/black theme (and works really, really well too!). Thanks Robyn!Labels: stash enhancing |

| SP12 QOTW |
Question 12 (a little late):
I'm sure most of us have a proudest moment when it comes to knitting. A project or technique that you've tackled and completed beautifully. What is your proudest knitting moment??
I'm still trying to come up with an answer to this one. There are so many moments I'm proud of with my knitting- my first a-ha! moment learning mattress stitch...Yannick's first pair of socks (also my first)...the first time I realized I could alter a pattern and not need to follow the exact directions (like doing short row shoulders and a 3ndl bo instead of binding off and seaming)...my first official pattern. I think everything that got me to *here* is my proudest moment.
And on the flip side? What is the one thing that you can't get right? What is that one project that you've never been able to complete? Or that you did complete but then hid away instantly because it was too embarrassing?
Honestly? None. I'm not thrilled with my Fair Isle but I know it will get better with practice. That doesn't stop me from using it. I have no hidden projects, and my only ufos are unfinished because of lack of time, not lack of skill or embarassment. I don't think there ARE any knitting skills that one cannot learn...so I have no answer to this part.Labels: secret pal 12 |

| package # 2 |
I took these photos about 2 weeks ago and feel horrible that I haven't posted them yet. Sorry Secret Pal!
Package #2 from my secret pal had arrived, and I am so happy with it!
 There is a cute knitting card, a sheep magnet, a candle (cucumber-melon scent, yum!) and a set of post-its, 'cus you can never have too many! The best part is a skein of Dream in Color Smooshy!
 I tried taking the photos in natural light but for some reason they kept coming out blue, whereas the yarn is actual dark green. The label says "Giant Peach" which is clearly wrong, so after browsing DiC's website, I think the actual color is not listed there. It might have to be Good Luck Jade by default, but it's not dark enough. (Unless of course, my memory is failing me, and it actual IS blue, in which case it is probably Midnight Derby). Either way, Yannick is trying to claim it as his, so I might need to eke a pair of socks for both of us out of it!
Thanks Secret Pal!
Because there hasn't been enough lately, here's a photo of Jakob on his Rock 'n Roll trike:

| Hanukah Dreidel Pillow, part 6 |
The finished pillow! Yay!
After finishing the front, I cast on for the back. The back was worked in 2 overlapping sections so that the pillow could come out easily for laundering/changing of the cover. My original intent was to leave it as is, but once seamed, the center of the back kept gaping, so I added a row of buttons. Had I had more time, and a proper plan in place, I might have sewn down a strip of Velcro instead.
 When it came time to join the front to the back I had been planning on working icord but since speed was still a factor (I had to mail it to Mary Maxim before the contest deadline) I chose the easiest and fastest way for me- single crochet. For fun I decided to use white around the blue areas, and blue around the white areas.
 And there you have it. One completed Hanukah Dreidel Pillow. Not a contest winner, but makes me proud enough to see it come out of my head and land on my couch.

| hey look- some of that stuff I've been knitting (and a special day too) |
I finally got around to taking some progress photos last night. It was really late so forgive the flash...but feel free to admire my new couches as the background! :)
This is the progress on the BullsEye Pinwheel Baby Blanket I've been carrying around as my "work anywhere" knitting. It doesn't look like much right now, but will hopefully look good once the bind off frees it from the confines of the circ I'm working on.
 I'm at row 38 and have calculated that I want to be at row 47 and either bind off, or work an edging, so the end is in sight!
Also, this weekend Maaike and I started knitting(along) Baby Surprise Jackets. Here's the progress on mine as I went to bed last night.
 I am at row 76 of the 114 row pattern.
 Here is how it will look when properly folded and seamed. I've decided that I will make the buttonholes on both sides as per the pattern, and will wait until our baby is born to choose buttons. The blue and green is pretty unisex in my opinion, but if we have a girl I think I'd like to put little flowers or something to push it over the girly edge.
I couldn't end today's post without mentioning 2 special things. 2 years ago, today, Yannick and I got married. Happy 2nd anniversary, my love!
 And perhaps even more special than that, today also happens to be Yannick's birthday.
 (Yes, chosen so he wouldn't forget the date).
Happy birthday sweetheart!

| dumb as a... |
I wish I could say I'd overheard this comment. But nope- this is all me.
I went out for dinner with the moms from Jakob's playgroup. We're trying to do an adults-only thing once a month. Anyways, many of us have wedding anniversaries coming up in September, which led to the topic of how long we've been married/with our significant others.
I mentioned that next week will be both Yannick's birthday and our 2nd wedding anniversary (same day). What did I say next?
"In December it will be ten years we've been together. I know. Ten years! But it feels like a decade!"
Ahem.
Clearly we all know what I'd MEANT to say? I was going for the joke- intending on "...but it feels like a century!". But nope- baby brain kicks in and I'm lucky I can string together a few coherent words without too much drooling.
And I thought I got dumb when pregnant with Jakob! Today I'm 20 weeks pregnant. It can't get worse, right? |

| Hanukah Dreidel Pillow, part 5 |
We're almost there!
The next step was to use more Patons Brilliant, this time in a shiny gold color, to duplicate-stitch the dreidel game letters in the four corners of the pillow.
 Another closeup for you!
 I know I said this before, but it continued to amaze me how much the finished product looked like my original sketch and computer design. I know it *should* look like what I wanted, but to see such an accurate representation tickled me every time I'd lay them side-by-side.
Almost done now...

| Hanukah Dreidel Pillow, part 4 |
We're getting there, folks. Won't be long now!
Once the white "ridges" were complete, I did the letters on the dreidel itself.
 Another closeup. While the white ridges were done using the same yarn as for the background (Patons Shetland Chunky), the lettering was done using Patons Brilliant, a thinner, stiffer, metallic yarn.
 Because this was a contest submission we had to use yarns from the contest sponsors, including Patons, Bernat, Diamond and Kertzer.
I know I'm teasing this out instead of just showing a finished object and being done with it. Sorry to do that, but I can't show you what I'm actually working on as I am busy swatching for a few submissions I'd like to put out.

| the interview |
Me: What is your favorite thing about my knitting?
Hubby: Socks.
Me: What is your least favorite thing about my knitting?
Hubby: Clutter.
Me: What is something I have knitted that you recall as being good?
Hubby: Everything you've knitted was "good". I think the Superman Costume was excellent.
Me: Do you think knitters have an expensive hobby?
Hubby: Yes.
Me: Do you have any hobbies?
Hubby: No.
Me: What are your hobbies?
Hubby: -
Me: If we compared money spent on hobbies, who would win?
Hubby: You, clearly.
Me: Has my knitting in public ever embarrassed you?
Hubby: No.
Me: Do you know my favorite kind of yarn?
Hubby: I think all yarns are your favorite.
Me: Can you name another blog?
Hubby: No.
Me: Do you mind that I want to check out yarn stores everywhere we go?
Hubby: Not particularily.
Me: Do you understand the importance of a swatch?
Hubby: Yes.
Me: Do you read my blog?
Hubby: Not very often.
Me: Have you ever left a comment?
Hubby: No.
Me: Do you think the house would be cleaner if I didn't knit?
Hubby: Yes.
Me: Is there anything you would like to add in closing?
Hubby: No.
Added by me: I APOLOGIZE for the utter lameness of this post. I saw the interview on other blogs and really wanted to do it too...my husband is usually remarkably chatty and I thought it might be interesting. I didn't realize he would be giving me one-word answers as if there were a maximum of words allowed per post. Still- I did it, and am posting it regardless.Labels: meme |
