Every craft has it's unique labor saving tools, and knitting is no exception. Even though knitting itself is slow and monotonous (my view) knitters hate wasting time prepping their yarn. Hence the umbrella swift to hold yarn being wound by the ball winder (the alternative being husbands or small children to hold the yarn).

I am a technologist, foodie, photographer, gardener, music lover and political junkie. I have always saved ticket stubs, old business cards, doodles and other ephemera in shoe boxes, scrapbooks or desk drawers. Some things get saved and some are lost over time. I travel a lot, take many photos and try to keep notes of my experiences, whether interesting meals, great bottles of wine, or cool articles I have read. This site is my latest attempt to consolidate this content for the entertainment of my friends and family.
