Or you can do this

Trying to learn HTML coding while knitting can cause errors. I did the cuff on the wrong size needles and am starting all over again -


My dear mother has finished the last 3 baby sweaters I started. It's because babies grow so fast!
This time I'm going to try to get it done myself!

How to keep track of stitches

I need to cast on 94 stitches, and I always loose count...My mom usually bails me out, but she's nowhere near to help me, so here is my solution.


Paper markers at each 10th stitch. I'm glad that I can count to 10! :)

Edible styrofoam from Amway in a house of 3 cats




You can eat this packaging material, it's made out of popcorn they told me.



The cat-who-won't-let-me-look-at-him is very intrigued with the stuff.


Especially when I put my hand into the box and make mysterious rustling noises.


Last night we made the cat so crazy that it made a flying leap into the box and dumped the whole contents on the floor. So we'll be looking for some other breakfast cereal this morning!

Mugs

Capitalizing on Anita's idea.
The symbol on the cup commemorates our survival of CO poisoning last month.
I can't wait to drink my morning coffee from my new TinTin cup!

Public transportation

20 years ago when I first came to Austria I really longed for a pair of skates or a skateboard because of all the walking we did. Now the Viennese have caught up with my daydream.


This was taken on the U-Bahn, a lady who uses a scooter to get around on city streets, then for longer distances uses the subway. It's a great way to get around!

On my new coffee cup?

From kyiv and Austria
Anita is the one who came up with this idea. I think the fact that I somewhat manipulated the graphic makes it ok for me to plagiarize it, any experts out there?
