polish

2009-07-16T20:17:00.003-04:00

Well this past weekend i took three hours over the sat and sunday and polished the motorcycle . let me tell you , i found an awesome metal polish it is called -purple metal polish.
it doesnt require the normal elbow grease usually needed to polish and it did an awesome job

i did a search online for "purple metal polish"

i was told they carry it at napa but my local napa didnt carry it

walt

Heroes

2009-07-11T16:38:00.002-04:00

well in the last eppisode of Heroes, Nathan got killed and it was said "the only way to keep him alive is to make Sylar think he is Nathan."

That is bull-ony because previously HRG - Clair's step father got killed and got a shot of Clair's blood and came back to life.

now why cant Nathan - Clair's biological father get a shot of Clair's blood and return to life?

they arent following their own story

now Sylar-Nathan is probably gonna be a Jeckyl and Hyde

those aree my thoughts

walt

matter of faith

2009-01-18T18:39:00.003-05:00

if you ever have a question about your faith or the bible and how it relates to a particular "problem" in your life. please dont hesitate to take it to yor pastor, reverend, or whatever they are caed in your denomination please dont let it cause doubt in your relationship with God.
i am speaking from my past experience it isnt god to try and figre it out yourself, it is what they are trained for.

walt

hello

2009-01-15T19:20:00.002-05:00

walt

2009 is here

2009-01-06T09:34:00.002-05:00

well this past saturday i took the oarts for the motorcycle and dropped therm off for paint
i have a friend who teaches at Wyotec and i am getting it done for the cost of the paint

on another front i have been officially been promoted to a standard clown in the clown brigade, most of my skills are behind the sceenes stuff more than performing but i am improving there too

Sundays clown practice

2008-12-30T20:15:00.003-05:00

Well this past sunday- the one right after Christmas- i went before the board of review .
the reason for the board of review was another advancement i have enough proficiencies to move to the next level in the clown brigade which is Standard Clown.

well i went through the board of reviews and was asked to do some balloon animals and some questions from the proficiencies i have earned and out of 50 i missed 4 so i got a 92 %
yahoo

well next is the brigade counsel approving the advancement and it will be official yippeee

want to wish everyone out there a happy, healthy, and blessed New Year.

God is with us always!

December 27

2008-12-28T02:29:00.006-05:00

Well the Pittsburgh are had a verry unseasonable day so much so that when a coworker was walking to eat and park he saw a group of bees that were out of hibernation.
Do you know what else was out of hibernation? Motorcycles.
thats right it was around 60 degrees and there were alot of motorcycles runnimg around.
not mine though, she is torn apart and waiting to be sent out for paint.
well tomorrow is church then clown practice (Later this morning really since it is 2:35 am Sunday )
well it will be interesting to see what happens with the weather for the polar bear runs that happen on jan 1st

i guess i should give a slight explanation to the polar bear run i have to miss for the 2nd year
it is where on january 1st you get out the motorcycle and go for a ride to bring in the new year right
in the polar bear run temperature is not a concern but snow and ice is
so if it is snowing or icy its usually canceled but if its cold its not but depending on how cold it is decides the length of the ride if it is really cold just showing up is the ride but if its warmer you gather then actually go for a ride but i guess you figured that out
being in the south west corner of PA it is usually COLD but it might not be this year after seeing todays temp and naturally i tore the bike aspart on christmas day so i was stuck riding in the cage(car)

i guess i will try to sleep some more just wanted to get this on here

walt

Christmas

2008-12-23T19:56:00.003-05:00

Well its been a while since my last post.
we had a clown advancement ceremony and I am now a junior clown from apprentice.
i have been doing a little motorcycle riding really just back and forth to where i need to go no real jorneys.
i guess it has a bit to do with the gas prices.

i also will be going to a family camp through the Salvation Army next month so that should be fun.

clown scarf

2008-04-29T21:08:00.006-04:00

well i promised a picture of the scarf i designed with 3 arms for the clown brigade and here it is
what I did was the first row was 1 knit stitch and for the second row i added a knit stitch and for the 3rd row i added a knit stitch at the beginning of the row and so on till i got the triangle for the center i chose to make the triangle 28 stitches

after i had the triangle i picked 3 rib patterns 1 for each arm of the scarf

after completing the rib pattern i reduced to the triangle like at the beginning knitting 2 together at the beginning of each row untill i got down to 1 stitch

then i picked up 28 stitches on the second side of the triangle and proceeded with the second rib pattern following the same procedure as before just with the new rib

and the same for the 3rd side of the triangle.

after the 3 arms were finished and knotted off i made 3 big pom poms for the ends

but a word of advice from my mistake make sure your choice of rib pattern isnt mostly stockinette as it will curl as my 1 arm is.

have fun if you dare, lol

walt

Sunday March 20

2008-04-19T20:06:00.003-04:00

Coronet
by Alexandra Virgiel
from Knitty, Winter 2003
http://www.knitty.com/ISSUEwinter03/PATTcoronet.html
it is my first cable project and i was told this is a great cable starter because you wont get overwhelmed like in a cable sweater. it is a little challenging till you get the rythem down.and in doing this project you also learn how to pick up stitches so i am learning 2 new things in 1 project- cabling and picking up stitches.

i did finish the scarf i made for mom

until later

Well as i mentioned Friday was my day off and as a project Mom and I went through her stash and she donated ALOT of her yarn to charity knitting. but before she donated it she asked if i was interested so here are a couple pics of my stash.
one of the big items is 30 of the Big skeins of Rainbow Boucle =can you say "sweater time"? lol
then there is about 6 hanks or bundles or something of super bulky for a sick blanket for the recliner. i admit its not a good color buttt...
then there is just a bunch of small treasures like sock yarn and misc yarns and even some that called out to be kilt hose.

and if all that wasnt enough i went to mens knitting night at Natural stitches and 6 men had a good time just knitting and talking.

walt

friday the 18

2008-01-18T09:59:00.000-05:00

well it is friday and i have the day off, so in addition to going to mens night @ Natural Stitches tonight, mom and i are gonna sort and organize her stash. we will see what she wants to keep for her stash then what is left will be sifted through for my stash then what is still left will go for charity knitting. mom gets first crack because she bought it .

looking forward to mens night,

walt

Sunday The day of rest

2008-01-13T21:41:00.000-05:00

i was going to church today and half way there i blew a brake line so i proceeded to go to church then i drove home with only the parking brake (fun) so i got home and proceeded to tear the brakes apart and in changing the brake lines for the rear i touched the fuel return line and it blew. so now not only do i have to replace the rear brake lines but i have to drop the tank and repair the gas line. boy it is nice being a knitting mechanic i guess.

walt

Friday night

2008-01-12T20:06:00.001-05:00

Well Friday night i went with Steven to the "cult" meeting at the borders in South Hills Village i believe it was. Had a SUPER time was a wonderful bunch of people. even thoughi wasnt knitting a manly project i was excused because it is for my mom. steven pointed this out even though he was knitting gay pride colors. the scarf is the 1 i started thursday night and it is comming along pretty quick. I definately wanna go back to the "cult" knitting group.

here is a pic of the scarf, enjoy.

new project

2008-01-11T00:29:00.000-05:00

well I finished the scarf i was making for myself and offered to make 1 for mom (CarlaK) and she loved the idea so we went hunting for the yarn she wanted, I felt like Elmer Fudd "Shhhhhhhhh be vewwy vewwy quiet" and we came across 2 yarns-a black and a medium pink- mom had bought to go together for another project. mom sugested that i try a double stranded knit and loves the way it is comming out. and the double stranded knit is easier than i expected and it makes the pattern go even faster, but anyone reading this already knows that.so i started with a size 10 needle and neither mom or i liked the way it was looking (too tight), so i moved to a size 13 and mom says that looks just right for her and i am only doing 17 stitchesso i believe this will take absolutely no time at all. even though this is 1 that looks like crap in a pic but good in person here is a pic to share with ya.

Ravelry at Natural Stitches

2008-01-08T22:41:00.000-05:00

Well we had a good turnout at the knitting group tonight. I was able to finish my scarf

We had a lady come to the knitting group from Denver to help knit on the Marley scarf for stevens clown unit http://zeeppoville.blogspot.com/ this link should help for details.

and on the last note for the evening i mentioned about our 2 manx cats and promised to share a pic of Smokey so here is our "Fat boy", goodnight

monday night

2008-01-07T21:57:00.000-05:00

Well I just got home from Monday night knitting at Joseph Beth booksellers AKA beehive knitting. it was a small turnout just the organizer Steven AKA Zeeppo The Great, hisa wife and myselfwhjich is good for me becazuse steven lets me pick his brain ( i am sti8ll a "new" knitter ).
it is also bad be3cause being new knitter i cant talk and knit yet but i am verry appreciative of his spreading of knowledge.

so after a day of changing tires all day at work then knitting i am getting ready for bed because we get to do it all over again tomorrow at the Ravelry knitting.

goodnight

I spent a few hours helping Natural Stitches expand the space for more exciting yarn and such.
i did get about 2 hours of knitting in on the scarf. and i got a bit of help to make the blog look a little better from my friend Zeeppo The Great.

o well take care all,

walt

Sunday Dec 30

2007-12-30T18:32:00.000-05:00

i have had a day of knitting, tv, and relaxing. I have been working on an Auntie Em scarf.

I started with 2 balls of the red/black Moods yarn, After getting to the end of the first ball I decided to do the second half of the scarf in the teal/black Moods. I hope it looks as good when done as it does in my head.

The pattern was inspired by a suggestion of the owner of Natural Stitches. It is calleds the Auntie Em scarf.

2007-12-27T21:50:00.000-05:00

Well i dont have verry much time to knit during the week and being i am a newbie i am not a fast nitter but i manage to squeeze in a couple hrs while watching tv each night. so to the point of this post: as of the 9:39 pm measurement i am up to 40 inches on my moods scarf, and even if i do say so myself i think it looks awesome. and i am surprised that having 40 inches i still have some yarn left from my first ball it is going farther than i expected . here is a picture and goodnight.

Christmas present

2007-12-25T15:24:00.001-05:00

well i gave mom her christmas present a couple months ago which was a gps. and today i got my present the complete dvd series of Gilmore Girls.
i am a big fan of the show because the relationship between the mother and daughter is so close to the relationship mom and i have.

i gave her her gift early because she had more need for it then than now.

2 current projects

Well here is a picture with 2 current projects I am working on. The 1 on the right is a steeler scarf done in stockinette stitch just to practice because I started knitting way too tight. and because I am a Steeler fan.

The 1 on the left is a scarf made from Moods yarn that I fell in love with when i saw it at Natural Stitches http://www.naturalstitches.com and the pattern was designed by the owner Martha. It works up fast especially on a size 11 needle.
