I’ve been wanting to sit down to blog for a while now, but life kept getting in the way.  Lots of things are going on à la maison de Nox.

The biggest of these things is that I am getting ready to move.  Soon.  As in the next 2 or 3 months.  I’m doing the whole house hunting thing right now and it’s this weird mix of annoying/exciting/scary/fun.  I have all of these ideals in my head of the perfect house in the perfect location with the perfect tree in the front yard and the perfect window with the perfect view and on and on.  Reality is that none of these ideals will be met right away.  But is there the potential to meet as many of them as possible?  That’s really the question.  There are a lot of good things that will be coming from this move.  And frankly, it should have happened a long time ago.  But I guess the stars weren’t quite aligned yet.  But they are now.  And I’m foaming at the mouth to decorate!  Whatever place I choose will become a shrine to the handmade decor.  I’ve already raided my mother’s fabric stash for fabric for curtains.  I’m pulling out all of my cotton yarn to knit an crochet bath mats, dish towels and wash cloths.  My stack of card stock is going to finally become that mobile I’ve been wanting to make.  I’m even eyeing some lace weight to knit up airy curtains too.  It’s going to be wonderful.  I can’t wait!

I do need to add that I’m scared out of my mind at the thought of having to move my stash.  I think I could fill an entire moving truck with just my stash.

There’s been lots of yarns heading over to the shop recently.  And there’s been knitting.  I finally cast on that yummy lace weight I spun up from some moonrover batts.  I’ll leave you with that photo… Her way with color is truly divine.
