Am I being stalked?Alright, so I officially joined the Knittyboard Blogstalking 2 'cause, you know, I'm I joiner.
So this weeks assignment is "Purse Guts" to which we reveal the deep dark contents of every guys worst nightmare.....seriously. I tend to fluctuate between the big purse and the small purse and I am currently in the big purse phase.

Courtesy of Target, apparently a popular purse destination for other Stalkees. I have placed a 9" needle for reference 'cause, you know, that's what was handy. Let's check out the contents, but a warning....one of the rules of this assignment was that you were not allowed to clean it out first, so bare with me.

From the top we have the address book, planner, B&N nametag, checkbook, wallet, excess card holder, sock pattern, wine list from
Grapefest 2007, Purse knitting (currently a
Pomatomus in Trekking XXL #100),
Lord John and the Brotherhood of the Blade, various coupons and receipts from the last grocery run, iPod, a bazillion pens and three tins of mints from the PKD walk goody bags, paystub and various business cards.

My wallet is my new favorite thing ever. I saw several customers that had them and finally asked someone where they got it. Of course, mine came from Target, but I have seen them other places, especially Hallmark. I like it cause if I need to slim down a bit, then I can just grab the wallet and go. I do use a little card holder for all of the other card that I have that I need but don't use every day, like the video card, grocery card, etc.
Alright, so how about some knitting. As you can see, I got the camera to work for a bit so here are the Flaming Monkeys!

Pattern:
Monkeys from Knitty.com
Yarn: Lorna's Laces Shepard Sock in Flames
Needle: US1
Mods: Increased pattern repeat to 18 sts and added a picot hem.
I have also begun a project for my cousin's future cousin-in-law. Everyone got that figured out? Okay, good. I am working on recreating a Christmas stocking for a newly arrived cousin.

It's progressing nicely and quickly. Should be done in plenty of time for the wedding in November and for Christmas!
Speaking of Christmas, I got gifted some yummy yarn from
Tasha.

It is some Lorna's in Glenwood and quite yummy. I also got some new Inox and bamboo sock needles from
Dawn, but that is when the camera cut out....one picture short.
