		<description><![CDATA[Whoosh! Winter is almost over and it&#8217;s August already! I remember my grandmother telling me when I was a little girl that time seems to pass faster when you&#8217;re older, and one day I&#8217;ll think 5 years only a very little time (as compared to then when 5 years was ages and was a good [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I know that Dunedin does not have the best reputation weather wise. This doesn&#8217;t actually bother me, people think it snows all the time and that it&#8217;s miserable here on a regular basis, I know better and I smile to myself thinking how wonderful it is to live in such a charming city that isn&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The winter sock club is about to kick off again. I&#8217;m excited and a little nervous. I like sock clubs; I enjoy making up little packages to send out, I like designing new sock patterns but I&#8217;m always a little concerned about time management and coming up with new things. Some things get easier &#8211; [...]]]></description>

January saw the debut of a Summer Sock Club, which meant three new exclusive club colours and three new patterns to design. In order (January &#8211; March), Blue Sky Baby, Theodora [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Yes I&#8217;m a very sporadic blogger, I&#8217;m sorry. Unfortunately blogging gets pushed to the bottom of the list these days. The business is going well and I&#8217;m not really keeping up &#8211; not that I&#8217;m complaining, this is a good thing.
My scanner has also been dead (really dead, not a peep, not a single glowing [...]]]></description>

And I&#8217;m busy working on the second and third installments.
 
I became an auntie! She was a wee bit early (6 weeks) but she&#8217;s done very well and was able to [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Camp was great! Lots of knitting time but my actual output was small &#8211; this twined knitting lark is tough going. And because I&#8217;m that kind of difficult person I decided to jump in the deep end by twining with two colours &#8211; four ends, twisting, concentration and very slow knitting ensued. My two colour [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This weekend I&#8217;m off to &#8220;Knitting Camp&#8221; for some exploration of Twined Knitting. It&#8217;s forecast to rain all weekend here so it seems an ideal weekend to huddle inside playing with yarn. The company will be superb and I can be all knit-geeky without getting strange looks from non-fibre obsessed individuals.

 
I&#8217;ve dyed up some z-twist [...]]]></description>

For many years my day job had been teaching at the local university but at the end of last year I decided to throw caution [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I do a little lace knitting and I&#8217;d read stuff by American knitters which referred to &#8220;blocking wires&#8221;. When I investigated this further it seemed like a way to ease the pain of blocking with just pins. The wires sold specifically to knitters for blocking seemed quite pricey and I&#8217;d read things about people using [...]]]></description>
