"Tangled yarns from an unlikely knitter"
I'm a novice knitter, semi-pro frogger, and prodigious collector of unfinished objects living in a teeny-tiny apartment on Vancouver's North Shore. I'm an opinionated procrastiknitter, so my blog often features non-knitting content.
To finance my yarn habit, I work as a writer and editor.

Right now it's 2:45 in the morning, and Piggy really should be in bed. Well, actually I am; but I'm wide awake and typing this post, when I should be getting some much-needed beauty sleep (hibernation's more like it, in my case) in preparation for to...

I\'m too stunned to write a real post
I had plans to throw together a half-way decent post tonight, honestly. After all, today is the last day of NaBloPoMo 2009, and I've made it to the end. But I'm afraid I have been stunned by the television for the past 50 minutes or so, and have on...
