I had a surprise visit at the shop today from my friend Eva, who brought me a present from her recent trip home to Tasmania: some Art Viva knitting needles! They’re handmade from Tasmanian Oak. They’re beautiful and pointy and long, and they’ve got lovely bright red polka-dotted balls on top (that remind me of the mushrooms in Super Mario Brothers). I can’t wait to try them out. Thanks, Eva!
Important Note
This site features content going all the way back to 2000. The posts you’ll read reflect my views and writing style at the time. While I have gone back to clean up a few of them, I think it’s important not to sanitise too much. This site is a record of who I am and how I’ve grown. Any blog post written years ago may not reflect who I am today, nor how I would write about the same topic today.

wow that was quick! Maybe with those super mushrooms you’ll get extra boost to help you with those knitting projects 🙂
Hahaha… Everybody’s blogging at work!
Oooo, I have a pair of those. They’re a touch rougher than bamboo when you first start using them, but they soon smooth out.
