		<title>A Bookworm&#8217;s Best Friend</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Over the past couple of months, I&#8217;ve fallen completely in love with goodreads.com &#8211; a website all about books.  (For those of you who use Ravelry, this is a very similar idea!) Goodreads not only has ratings and reviews of books, it also lets me keep track of what I&#8217;m currently reading, an ordered list [...]]]></description>

		<title>Christmas Knitting (Late Update)</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve been working hard on my Christmas knitting for the past few weeks. Christmas has passed you say? Well, I had a few people who I wasn&#8217;t going to see until New Years &#8211; and then there was just the general running late. Here are a few projects for you to peruse: Shawl/Blanket for Grandma [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Quilting Bug</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I recently made an *amazing* purchase from Craigslist &#8211; my very own Bernina Artista 180.  The price was a steal, and I&#8217;d been looking patiently for a used Bernina for 4-5 years.  I really lucked out with this one. I&#8217;ve been having a great time with the Connecting Threads kits I purchased a week and [...]]]></description>

		<title>January Phat Fiber!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My January Phat Fiber box arrived yesterday.  I was having a pretty cranky evening and it cheered me right up.  I know it&#8217;s hard to believe, but I think this might be the softest, prettiest, nicest Phat Fiber (or any collection) box I&#8217;ve ever seen.  Apparently &#8216;books&#8217; was a great inspiration! We&#8217;re off to watch [...]]]></description>

		<title>I Must Confess</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m sure it sounds silly. I&#8217;ve got this strange issue with my spinning &#8211; I can only spin thin yarns. I&#8217;ve thought of many reasons for this problem: I&#8217;m a perfectionist and I can only make very very skinny yarns be as consistent as I want. I&#8217;ve done too much work in the last two [...]]]></description>

		<title>Plying an Overspun Single</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Tonight I had a particularly unpleasant experience. About two weeks ago I&#8217;d spun a loooong green blended merino single from some fibre I really like (from SarasTextureCrafts on etsy). Unfortunately, for some reason I&#8217;d thought it was a good idea to give it some good, strong overtwisting. The sort that leaves tiny little kinks that [...]]]></description>

		<title>Et le Deux</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A second balanced skein! It&#8217;s not nearly as tightly plied as the first, and I (somewhat) succeeded at making a thicker yarn. I&#8217;ll wrap it to get a better measurement of weight when it&#8217;s finished drying. For now I&#8217;m pretty pleased with myself. Maybe soon I&#8217;ll get practiced enough to spin something aran weight -grin-. [...]]]></description>

		<title>No News is Good News</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Nothing particularly interesting to report on the fibre arts front today. I&#8217;ve got great reasons though &#8211; two good friends in town for the weekend! One of them is staying with me and ran the first session of a new Dungeons &#38; Dragons campaign for us this afternoon. Yes, I&#8217;m a geek. If you didn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<title>On the Needles</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A quick update on the projects I&#8217;ve currently got underway.  Well, the somewhat active ones at least. First a few things for a coworker whose wife will have a baby boy in January. Baby Boy 5-Hour Jacket Yarn/Yardage: Paton&#8217;s Decor, just over one ball Needles: US7 Progress: Just have the ends left to weave in. [...]]]></description>
