		<title>Off to Madrona!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The annual Madrona Fiber Arts Winter Retreat started yesterday in Tacoma, Washigton.  I&#8217;ve attended this fabulous event for the last three year and I&#8217;m excited about going again this year.  I&#8217;ll be heading down to Tacoma straight from work today, hoping to get there in time to do some shopping at the public market. 
I&#8217;m only [...]]]></description>

		<title>Testing mobile blogging</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I recently upgraded to a Google Nexus 1 phone, which I absolutely love.  In an attempt to fully utilize all of its features, I&#8217;ve  downloaded a Wordpress application.  I&#8217;m trying out the mobile application right now.  In fact, I&#8217;m  using the phone&#8217;s voice recognition abilities to write this post.  [...]]]></description>

		<title>I Just Love Me Some Noro Yarn!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[One of the brands of yarn that I just love, mostly for the beauty of it&#8217;s colors, is Noro. Some people are not fond of it due to the the VM (vegitable matter) often found in some of the more rustic Noro yarns (Kureyon, for instance), but as a spinner, it really doesn&#8217;t faze me [...]]]></description>

		<title>Frankenshed Needs a Makeover!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[We&#8217;re in the process of a massive back yard renovation.  We have had it nearly completely stripped and are rebuilding from the ground up (well, from below ground in some cases!)  When the work is completed we&#8217;ll have an easy-care Pacific Northwest garden. 
There&#8217;s just one problem that the landscapers won&#8217;t be dealing with - Frankenshed.  That&#8217;s [...]]]></description>

		<title>Sad Socks</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Well, I finished one of my toe-up socks &#8211; still have to add the heel and finish off the second one.  However, I&#8217;m not at all happy, so I may just frog the whole project and chalk this one up to experience.  I learned several things &#8211; both what TO DO and what NOT TO [...]]]></description>

		<title>Testing New Wordpress Features</title>
		<description><![CDATA[
Last month I finally took the plunge and uploaded the newer version of Wordpress. I noticed today that the photo features have been enhanced greatly so now I&#8217;m going to test them out using this post. 

Well, it appears that all that&#8217;s improved is that the uploader is different, and that you can resize the photo [...]]]></description>

		<title>Picking up a dropped stitch &#8211; the marathon!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m in the process of knitting a pair of socks, toe up, two at a time on circular needles.  This is the first time I&#8217;ve tried this technique &#8211; I like it very much as my socks will both be finished at the same time AND they&#8217;ll be the same size.  Since this is a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Schacht Matchless Anniversary Edition &#8211; On Order!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I broke down and ordered a Schacht Matchless Anniversary Edition spinning wheel.  The Schacht Spindle Company is making around 100 (possibly up to 150) of a special cherry wood version of their popular Matchless spinning wheel.  &#8220;Matchless&#8221; is a good name for this wheel, because in it&#8217;s class, it really is unmatched &#8211; I can&#8217;t [...]]]></description>

		<title>Found my theme!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Wow &#8211; I found my old theme immediately. I&#8217;m still going to think about some updating, like possibly a new header image, but at least now I&#8217;m not in generic land until I do it!

		<title>Upgrade Fun &#8211; my WP &#8220;theme&#8221; is gone!</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I just did a long overdue upgrad WordPress upgrade for my blog.  Lo and behold, my theme is gone, along with my header!  Ack!  Well, maybe it&#8217;s time to refresh my theme and header.  I may remain generic for a few days while I figure this out.  I&#8217;m not sure what I did wrong because [...]]]></description>
