new math

6+6+6=24

WTF????

Oh no, I used to be good at math! I have three new patterns in the works, and the equation listed above managed to foil me this afternoon. Yes, apparently 6+6+6 does really add up to 18. Sigh...

a different sort of math...

We have cable, mainly because Paul's such a big enthusiast of Wisconsin sports and we're out of market for the Badgers/Packers/Brewers games. Plus the new Dr. Who's are on Sci Fi. :) I'm horrified by the price tag, however, especially since our special sign-up deal expired.

Last week Paul managed to get the cable company to lower our rates by following these suggestions from the Consumerist. Nice! It's definitely worth a try.

Apparently Kylie Cat was abducted by the Interweave Knits crew for a photo shoot..
Actual Kylie shots:


Uncanny resemblance, eh? I suppose brown/black tabby cats are a dime a dozen. The Kylie-lookalike is modeling the 40 Winks Basket for the new Interweave Knits Weekend special issue. Check out the preview here. I especially like the Gooseberry Cardigan.
