I'm Stephanie. I like to knit, write letters and poems, read (novels and blogs!), and stress out to the max. ;) At Sunbeam Soapbox I write about the knitting, letters, and whichever thoughts I want to share with the world. I also like new friends! Feel free to drop me an e-mail anytime using the contact form.

And they’re both Mystery Socks, so I’m going to cut it here so those that don’t want to be spoiled won’t be.
On number 5, If no yarn sold in the next year nobody would be without a project. Uh. Yes I would. At least I never bought yarn from you. But my LYSs better not close.
It’s been nearly a week since I posted and no one’s screaming yet? Whoa.
It is REALLY easy to give this up when the inspiration isn’t striking, I guess. Maybe not inspiration, exactly, but energy. I need to find my energy again.
This morning I woke up on the wrong side of the bed, literally. I punched [...]
Recently I sent Rebee an e-mail with some blog topic ideas because I have too many bouncing around my head. (Tired of hearing about Rebee yet? Huh are ya? Well too bad! You should see her latest post; I’m planning on writing a reaction to it in the next few days. So you’ll still have [...]
