Welcome to the newest addition to my blog, Craft Corner. I’ve occasionally included callout sections in my monthly blog recaps about the knitting I work on during that month and occasionally talk about future patterns.
With the 2023 year change and future changes to the book portion of this blog, I thought I’d spend a bit more time on these recaps and talk a bit more about where a large portion of my time is spent outside of work, school and reading. The photo to the right is my Insta Top 9 and it’s basically me being a goofball and working on designs by Rastus Hsu and Maxim Cyr (who you’ll see more from below).
What a month! It started with us getting Covid from our trip to Texas (not bad cases, just knocked us out for a few days), was immediately followed by my graduate school program starting in the middle of makeup events at work from the last two years, with a birthday trip for Tim (thankfully drivable this year to Upstate NY), and the busiest time of the year at work in general for me (end of the fiscal year).
May did NOT fly by even though we spent a long weekend in North Conway, NH for our 8th anniversary and flew to Texas at the end of the month for graduation parties. Add in that work picked up with the end of the fiscal year coming up fast and school starts the first week of June, I’m trying to figure out how it felt like a regular full-length long-ass month.
We had a busy month full of hiking, travel, and knitting.
