What's this? A post?!

This post is probably the proverbial tree falling in a forest after how long I've gone without posting, but I'm getting back into the knitting thing -- I swear!  Actually, I never got out of it... I just got wrapped up in other things.  Now I remember how much I love it, and have started making an effort to make time to do it.  I found that personal and work stress was making me a vegetable -- I never did the things I wanted to, even when I had time -- I don't know what it was when I wasn't doing "work" like things.  So I've turned over a new leaf and am not letting time get away from me so much anymore.

Of course, now there's ravelry... and if one has been so lucky as to get her invite, and has knitting-related time to spare, chances are it will be sucked into ravelry.  At least it will be if that lucky person is me.

Anyway, if anyone is out there and has any good comparative knowledge of what knitting-related stuff is available in Europe (I'm looking at you, Donni, if you still come 'round here once in a while), I'd appreciate recommendations -- I'll have some time in Germany next month, and might be able to twist my host's arm to let me pick up some sock yarns, back issues of Rebecca, and other goodies (yay!).

And maybe I'll be back here soon, too.  But for now, I've got to get back to imminent birthday knitting -- a Sideways Spencer (Interweave Fall 2004) in Knit Picks Swish Superwash.
