    Hey, I was on the telly Friday night! http://t.co/56LZ4QO0


    @drkknits Like 4, maybe?


    This weekend I roasted a chicken, sewed a dress, hung all my clothes on the line, and planned a quilt. Apparently I’m Amish now.

    @toastman Everybody shits on the Stable Table. I LOVE the Stable Table!


    @gemma747 Hey, is that the pizza place? I’ve eaten there! It’s not far from my office. 🙂


    @drkknits Lovely! And a bright colour – huzzah for personal growth. 🙂


    @AusVintageGrrl Ooh, that looks awesome. If you go back anytime soon, I’ll pay you to pick up one for me! 🙂

    Shirtdress gapes a bit between buttons. Have it safety pinned for now. What’s better: adding snaps or sewing down and putting in a side zip?


    @redambition I thought that was just gluing your boobs to your clothes, not gluing your clothes shut! 😀


    @AusVintageGrrl Ooh, I’d love one. (Are you coming to Halloween? Could get it from you then…)


    @redambition @zephyrama I think I have some snaps at home. They may be metal though. Any reason why plastic are better?

    I forgot my sewing friends are all tea drinkers. Horrors! Emergency run to shops…


    Sewing party has taken over the whole house! http://t.co/gs6GDPLY


    I made a Colette Hazel today! I hacked a bit to get a better fit. I think I need to make a smaller size next time. http://t.co/x8tiRmoF


    RT @drkknits: Chippendale sweatshop http://t.co/5drjhPWs // I haz concentration face.


    @drkknits @knitdra I should clarify it was $20 at Kmart in Indiana ten years ago!

    Running late to Guild. Nearly there…


    Frocktober #10. When in doubt, wear all the colours. http://t.co/3sPbNNje


    There are a lot of checked shirts and hipster glasses in here. (@ Hartsyard) http://t.co/VFpW3oyv


    My hipster hypocrisy knows no bounds. I am enjoying a bacon-infused Manhattan. http://t.co/LfjMSdlM


    RT @drkknits: Oh. My. God. http://t.co/cNld9fOC // So, this happened, and it was AWESOME.


    Remember that Mythbusters where they made the pig’s stomach explode? Yeah, that. Right here.


    Inner Westies: no one is being murdered in Chippo. That was me screaming like a maniac during ND’s overtime victory.

    @lemon_lime At Notre Dame, it meant “made out with at a party.” Caused much confusion when my Mom overheard me talking about hooking up tho.


    Frocktober #9. I defy this crappy, grey, wintry weather. DEFY IT! http://t.co/apfJwVdU


    @drkknits I did not! @knitterjp and I made the executive decision that it was more morally upright to buy a secondhand copy on the weekend.


    RT @drkknits: @web_goddess “even if i am freezzing my hipster arse off” // Pretty much. 🙂


    @mrs_sockvictim I nearly wore my hair in plaits but decided that might be a bit much. 🙂


    @zephyrama Are you doing the Hazel yet? I’ve got fabric ready to go. Trying to decide if I need to make a muslin for the top.


    @RoseRed_Shoes @drkknits Confession: I brought jeans to change into for tonight. Going to see Sydney Kings play with colleagues! 🙂


    @drkknits Oh, whatever. I am planning something with a loose waist. 😀


    @drkknits I have *some* standards. Sweat pants and flanno are only suited to dinner on the stable table at home, right @RoseRed_Shoes? 🙂


    Just bought 3 prints by @robertsonart from Anna at @artbuds. Really looking forward to seeing them framed on the wall!


    @Justacogitating Is that what that was? Apparently womb horror travels across the globe!


    @Justacogitating I don’t see as many photos of him here. To me, he just always looks exactly like Mr. Schu. It’s frightening.


    @imdominating @Justacogitating OH PUKE. He looks like someone put every douche in my college class into a blender.


    Power just flickered in our office in the Rocks…


    @Opheli8 Oh no! I didn’t know that.


    Congrats to @kunaal84 on his Buck’s Night, which I am in no way bitter about being excluded from. http://t.co/jZwDLvJ1


    Going to my first Sydney Kings game with the @Sitback crew including @trpurcell! http://t.co/6mgLmq5F


    If you are watching on telly, I am four seats to the left of LARA BINGLE. No shit. She looks like a dirty Ba http://t.co/8BqsXfsW


    Me and Paul and Lara Bingle. http://t.co/8IHxWqKt


    Apparently this dude is a singer/dancer of some renown. http://t.co/aDaQPnAq


    Who wears an AC/DC t-shirt and knee high leather boots?! This is not a rhetorical question. It’s Lara Bingle.


    It’s famous @Sitback developer Fernando with Lara Bingle. http://t.co/h73hsXtk


    @gilmae Sydney Kings game, corporate box, court side! We won!!


    @lifeasdaddy Nah, we just happened to sit by all of them!


    @goshling I’m as surprised as you are n


    @tinkabel Not so catty. She looked it!


    Not to be all Germaine Greer about it, but Nathan Jolliffe is seriously beautiful in person. http://t.co/cfrCVP2g


    @kunaal84 @lemon_lime @drkknits Well, I feel like ASS and my voice is shot, so you’re doing better than me!


    @kunaal84 @drkknits @lemon_lime Shall I tweet some of the photos Shane was sending me of you? 😉


    @drkknits @kunaal84 @lemon_lime I was just teasing. There was only one, and he posed for it. 🙂


    PumpkinWatch 2012 has begun! $3 a kilo at Coles Broadway. http://t.co/pOTsAUSB


    @knitdra @drkknits I will be a little late myself…
