I was going to wait until I had a picture of the Café Bastille to post before I wrote anything, but that’s not going to happen for a while. Besides, Nealie asked for an update, and how can you say no to someone whose e-mail address is “WhatsHerToes”?

Well, I figured out why I was so violently ill today.
Among the other wonderful drugs I take, I swallow a tablet of Wellbutrin each day. It’s the only antidepressant I’ve tried that really agreed with me. I started on it just after Thanksgiving. I take a 300 milligram dose.

There’s the beginning. It’s done in Rowan Magpie - 100% New Wool.
Anyone know what “New Wool” is?
I’ve finally started my next Aran. This one will be done using the Café Bastille Cables pattern from the Fall 2003 Interweave Knits magazine. I’m making it for Thomas the Triathlete. It should knit up really quick, since it uses fairly bulky yarn and size 11 needles. I started it on [...]
