Tia Juana Knits: Knit Tips: Sock Info: Yarn, Sizing, etc.
http://tia-juana.blogspot.com/2007/01/knit-tips-sock-sizing-heals-etc.html
Tuesday, January 16, 2007. Knit Tips: Sock Info: Yarn, Sizing, etc. Tips from my Yahoo Sock KAL group. (I know there will be more - great group! Per Felicia:You could probably make socks from just about any yarn out there. The problem comes in with wearability- - too thick of a sock wouldn't be comfortable in a shoe, and too thin of a sock would take forever to knit. Magic Stripes, Lion Brand: you can get a quality wool blend yarn for less than $10. The problem is- it's difficult to find. Cherry Tree Hil...

Tia Juana Knits: August 2006
http://tia-juana.blogspot.com/2006_08_01_archive.html
Friday, August 25, 2006. The Beginning: Christmas 2003. I began knitting while I was visiting my Mom in Athens, GA. I'd been thinking that I was such a jock that I had no creative outlet or mental exercise other than watching an occasional foreign film where I had to read the subtitles. Then Mom drove me to the local Super-sized Walmart where I bought my first pair of knitting needles, a size 10.5 blue aluminum set. That evening, as we quietly sat together, she on her lounger, me in mine, I began to read...

Run, Tia Juana! Run!: January 2009
http://tia-juana-runs.blogspot.com/2009_01_01_archive.html
Run, Tia Juana! Wednesday, January 21, 2009. New Year, New Commitment to Self. First a catch-up: I ran two marathons in 2008. Plus 9 other races! Thank you www.Athlinks.com. For keeping our race records! I still ran them slower than I want. So, yeah, I got past the burn out phase. However after the last marathon, I stopped doing much. Thus the New Year, New Commitment to Self subject! I have gained weight because: I drink too much, run too little, eat lots of junky. Notice I did NOT say I'd cut out junky.

http://tia-juana.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Wednesday, August 27, 2008. Knitting on BART: Speaking the Universal Language of Knitting. When Mama died the only comfort I had, the only way to escape for a few moments from deep, deep sorrow was knitting. I knit like a fiend. Even now, I use it to escape moments of quiet when I can think about my loss. My loss is so overwhelming, I cannot allow myself much quiet time. They exchanged comments with each other. I thought for a moment this woman used to knit when she was younger. Probably when she was...

Monday, November 13, 2006. Adult Bib Comments and a Great Idea! I really appreciate hearing from people about my little projects. To think there people out there who will take a moment to say hello to a stranger and to send along encouraging remarks. So nice. Also one knitter wrote and gave me a great idea for making bibs for seniors. What a wonderful community knitting idea! That is a really cute bib. I bet you all had laughs about that. That was too funny! I like the buttons on it too! San Francisco, CA.

Friday, September 29, 2006. Distance Running and Knitting: Similar Activities. I can't help myself. I am so obsessed with knitting that I visit other knitters' blogs! Like running, knitting seems require doing numerous projects to learn the techniques, over a period of years. Both distance running and knitting require patience with both yourself and what you are doing. Both require practice. Both bring about a meditative state of mind. In the meantime, here is the result of the quiz I took:. Supplies: Si...

Tia Juana Knits: Helpful Hints: Cable Needles
http://tia-juana.blogspot.com/2007/01/helpful-hints-cable-needles.html
Friday, January 05, 2007. Helpful Hints: Cable Needles. I like to organize suggestions made by others. Here's some on cable needles. With big needles I usethe same size "big" needle. I slip the sts onto it.knit the following sts and then pull the needle out and turn it and re-insert it into. Try cabling WITHOUT a cable needle. you won't be sorry.So much faster than fiddling with a cable needle. Wooden cuticle (finger nail) sticks work well with larger needles. Mary.
