W00t. Persuaded the devs to add me to their email list. This allows my ego to still pretend I’m in a technical role.

My Prime Factorization Sweater – That is some of the best, nerdiest knitting I have ever seen. I applaud you, madam!

@merrinmez @drkknits Not sure! Train is about 90 minutes.
@drkknits @merrinmez We just need to be back at our place before 7 since that’s when the people are turning up.
@drkknits @merrinmez Heh. Problem with train is inconvenient time tables. If we can get a lift home, that would be awesome.
@merrinmez @drkknits Sounds great. See you there then!

Woohoo, old couch sold to some cashed-up students. They didn’t even haggle! Score.
Massive thanks to @merrinmez for the lift home from the ‘Gong tonight…
@merrinmez Congratulations!

Destashing some knitting books. Get in quick or they’re going into our garage sale next weekend! http://t.co/YHR1YdKI
@drkknits Six sold in the past 5 minutes! The Snook says I priced ’em too low. Meh, I don’t care. I need to DECLUTTER ALL THE THINGS.
@purple_velvet When I worked there, a woman once asked to borrow a pen and paper so she could copy one out of a book.
Buy our stuff! Couch (http://t.co/LZDkl357), TV unit (http://t.co/rdasPkhw), and cat automation gadgets (http://t.co/8FV9I9WX).
Who wants to knit a Giant Cabled Chair Cover? Surprisingly, not me. But you can buy the chair and pattern from me: http://t.co/ys1gRlVH
@gemma747 Awww, yay! Hi everybody! You all look very rugged up. ๐
@miss_reecie That’s what attracted me, as you might imagine.
Our garage sale next weekend officially has a website: http://t.co/eBUbBjEY
@drkknits @knitterjp My stomach just lurched.
Just sewed in my best zipper ever… on the wrong effing side of the garment. FML.
@stufromoz @laimelde It was like a Mรถbius skirt. I kept trying to turn it right side out but never could!

Hey @drkknits – how long does the concert run? Working out when we can get back to Sydney so somebody can pick up our couch!
@drkknits Eep. We may have to duck out at the very end. I think the 4:41pm train is the one we’re going to have to take.

Modified Log Cabin Quilt Blocks
I just realised that I forgot to blog the April MetaQuilter quilt blocks! I finished these really early in the month and posted them off to Melissa, the designer for the month. They were a simple modified log cabin. Well, I say “simple,” but it’s just not patchwork if I don’t cut something the wrong size and swear repeatedly. But I managed to get them right in the end. ๐
Melissa said to feel free to put in any scraps we had that were LOUD. So the piece with the crazy fruit on it is actually mine!

Buy Our Stuff
Since our house is already chaos due to the kitchen renovation, the Snook and I decided we might as well upgrade some of the furniture as well. As a consequence, we’re having a garage sale next weekend! Saturday, May 5th is the big Sydney “Garage Sale Trail” event and we’re taking part. If you’re near Chippendale on the day, swing by! In addition to the furniture, we’ll also have knitting wool, VHS tapes, and some computer bits for sale.
If you think you might want some of the furniture NOW, we’ve actually put them up on Gumtree as well: couch, TV stand, and “cat automation system”. (That’s a LitterMaid plus an automatic feeder. The Snook wrote the ad and it CRACKS ME UP.)
For the knitters, I’ve also posted a few books and things over in the Ravelry Destash thread…
