I was pleased to watch Six Feet Under today and see Ruth (the mom) knitting in a YARN SHOP!!! i was shocked and pleased. last week they showed her knitting on the couch in front of the tv as her husband begged her to pay attention to him instead of knitting. hahaah.
but today's episode showed her sharing her feelings about her insane husband w/ her knitting circle. reminded me of our little group around the table at Simpatico.|W|P|111994080355264603|W|P|Six feet under...Ruth Knits!!!|W|P|purse.ho@gmail.com6/24/2005 04:26:00 PM|W|P|Jen Da Purse Ho|W|P|

I decided to start another DNA scarf for a teacher of mine who has been very helpful. he's a big science geek. but i'm already bored with it. it's such a pain doing somethign that requires so much attention. i kind of want to start my Einstein coat since i have all the yarn. :) hmmm..........|W|P|111964865362237780|W|P|Baby bow-tie bolero!!

anyways, saw your site from the asian knitters blog ring - friends call me a purse/bag-whore, so based on your blog name, i figured you would understand my bag obsession =)
p.s. great pics on all your projects!10/26/2005 06:55:00 PM|W|P| |W|P|I was reading through your archives (im in bed due to recovering off drugs from toothache) and saw that your birthday is the same day as mine. Now take into account I have not had 1 happy memory today and the fact that I found someone with a birthday on June 17th made me smile!! I was born in 75...woohooo!6/16/2005 11:49:00 PM|W|P|Jen Da Purse Ho|W|P|Tomorrow is my birthday. i'm going to be 28. woe is me. :(
I went to my friend's house tonight and gave her the sweetpea sweater. omg...she loved it. i was actually very happy she was so happy. even her hubby loved it. ahh...i felt so happy and proud.
I"m currently working on a bow-tie bolero from the Debbie Bliss Special Knits book for my friend's daughter. I meant to make this sooner...esp since the girl's b-day was last month. hehee i've decided to make it out of Classic Elite Flash Sweetpea color. it's knitting up nicley. Today i finished one front part and yesterday i finished the back. So just another front part and sleeves and i'm done. I'm scared i'm going to run out of yarn. I don't think i have enough. EEEK.
The stitches look really flat in this picture.
Much better picture. You can see the colors so nicely. I can't wait to see how it's going to look all knit up.
this is the back piece. It's all finished. i finished the left front already. hopefully i'll have this done in the next couple of days.|W|P|111898403753046062|W|P|Baby bow-tied bolero and baby sweetpea sweater|W|P|purse.ho@gmail.com6/19/2005 12:00:00 PM|W|P| Unknown|W|P|i can't help but to ask what yarn is that in such a pretty color?6/19/2005 12:58:00 PM|W|P| Jen Da Purse Ho|W|P|it is Classic Elite Flash Yarn in Sweetpea Color. I think it's a discontinued color...b/c i got it in a clearance section at a yarn shop.6/11/2005 08:41:00 PM|W|P|Jen Da Purse Ho|W|P|I finished ONE toe-less sock. I do like it. I like how the Regia knitted up. My only complaint about this sock is that it's a bit short around the ankle...even too short for me. but it's all good. i still like it. i had to get a pedicure today just so i could try on the sock and take photos. LOL. well, that's not the only reason. I was due for another pedicure anyway.
My short short sock.
My kitty try to muscle into my foot's picture.
My toes look LONg in this picture...when in reality they are short short stumps. Can you see the thong? hahaah. man..i thought i made the thong part too long. i was just perfect. :)

So last week i took a class given by Barbara At Simpatico for traveling stitches. It didn't help that I was an hour late to each class...but i had fun and it was very interesting.
I got started ont he traveling stitches hat. But then i got VERY distracted by the toe-less sock that I posted online last post. So far i'm about 2/3 done w/ the first sock. I'll post pictures in a little while. but 'im having fun w/ it. but everyone keeps asking me "WHY DO YOU WANT A TOELESS SOCK???" well, i love my toes to be free. i don't really wear socks for that reason. i'm odd like that. so far it's been a fun knit.|W|P|111851204155404396|W|P|birthdays and socks|W|P|purse.ho@gmail.com6/06/2005 01:56:00 AM|W|P|Jen Da Purse Ho|W|P|This has got to be one of the longest toes i've ever seen in my life!!
on a sillier note...i dig the sock on the right side...the toe-less one. :)

Great clutch! I have made two rag bag for my girls, and they are using it!6/05/2005 11:15:00 PM|W|P|Jen Da Purse Ho|W|P|Soooo..I'm done. this was a good knit. I was very satisfied. hahaa. it was fun, didn't take TOO long. hehehe. i started on April 17....stopped in them middle of May to do some other projects...and now i'm done. i'm happy. :)
This picture is one i took right before I finished it.
i was trying to show length here...you don't get that feeling. :)
I"m ghetto. I have no blocking board, nor have I attempted to make one. I cut up a big cardboard box one night out of desperation to block a poncho...and i've kept it since. works great. :) haha.a but i wish i had a blocking board b/c it looks so ghetto.
Close up of the pattern
isn't this picture hilarious?? it looks like the scarf is sooooo long. :)
