a good old girly-girl sleep-over for bride-to-be Kerrie
august 15, 2003
panty her
Welcome to Kerrie's sleep over party. Just one of the many festivities Kerstin has cooked up for our favorite knitblogger before her wedding (in two weeks!). And here's our guest of honor, joining us virtually in her pj's.

Yeah, we were doing a little knitting before you all got here. But now that you're here, let the fun begin!
Did you know that you can rearrange the letters of "Kerrie and Wayne" to spell "naked yarn were I"? Well, now you do. And speaking of getting naked with some yarn, why don't we start the evening by trying on some crocheted thongs?! Come on, it'll be fun! We have to find a good one for Kerrie (hen party = panty her). Perhaps this one would do for our blushing bride.

Now we know why she's blushing! And our purple pixie, hostess with the mostest should definitely have this one. I think I prefer this one. Who's gonna try on this one?
So what should we do now that we've got our sexy underwears on? Let's knit! Here's a pattern from White Lies Designs designer, Joan McGowan-Michael, for a knitted thong. And we can't forget about the guys. I've got the pattern to make willie warmers! I know you brought your needles. But did anyone bring the Barbie knitting machine??
Well, we're off to knit a bit in our fancy underwear. All of you staying up tonight, check back in two hours for an update from the slumber party!
(we're havin' a party in the comments box!)
rumply breast
Hey, you're back! While you were gone, we've been having lots of fun knitting and making up funny anagrams. Did you know that the letters in slumber party can be rearranged to form rumply breast? You do now. And where can we find the best rumply breasts around? Why Cosmo, of course.

We have GOT to take Cosmo quizzes right now!
So which Sex and the City personality are you? I'm most like Charlotte. Apparently I'm "refreshingly naive" and my dream man is "Superman with a trust fund." Actually, that does sound pretty good. (Tee hee.) What did you get?
Which one of you is the biggest flirt out there? Who's completely boy crazy? And I don't want to hear about anyone answering "scarf" to #8 on this quiz.
Now Kerrie, we know you're ready to settle down and wedding obsessed already, but how risque are you in the bedroom? Inquiring minds want to know! (Giggle.)
I'll be back in two hours with another update and you better have taken that quiz by then! (wink, wink.) And if no one's looking, check out the Cosmo guy candy gallery too!

Yum.
(girl talk, this way to the comments...)
munchies
Oh hell, it's too late for anagrams. It's pizza time! There was some discussion of making prank calls, but by the time I got the phone book out the girls decided we should just call for pizza.
And, there's the doorbell. Pizza's here!

The pizza guy wasn't the quite the cutie we were hoping for. Too bad. He certainly hit the jackpot though, delivering pizza to a gaggle of girls wearing crocheted thongs! Still, to hear him tell it, being a pizza delivery guy isn't as sexy as you'd think.
News flash! Whoops, busted. (hee. hee.)
Gotta get some slices before the girls eat 'em all up. See ya in two hours!
(don't bogart the comment box, dude.)

It is, like, you know, sooo late. Like, what are you doing still awake? Okay, so d'ya'wan'know what we're doing? We're acting like valley girls. Fer sure!
So, here's what you do. Go here and type in the URL of one of your daily reads and you can read it valley girl style. Oh my gawd. Like start at your own blog and surf the knitbloggers ring through the valley girl site. It's like totally cool.
Here's like something from our bitchin' bride yesterday:
"So Kerstin asked what to drink: like, fer sure, it totally has to be Sex on the Beach? I am so sure!"
Fer sure, girl! Like, totally have another.
An eBay Knitting listing:
"Lion TERRYSPUN Citron Knitting Yarn 480 YDS! Like, oh my god!"
Gag me with a spoon!
CNN headlines:
"Officials not like, fer sure about what caused outage"
"Judge totally won't remove commandments"
From the White House:
"In speaking to military personnel and families Thursday, President Bush said, 'I'm honored to be in the presence of the hunks and skanks who wear our nation's uniform. I'm proud of you, and I want to thank you for your service to our totally awesome country.'"
And now you should like, so make your way to Kerstin's site for the rest of this bitchin' party, but valley girl style please. Fer sure!
(like, totally leave a comment, okay?)
wild night
What a wild night! I hope you all had fun at Kerrie's slumber party. I have to thank my husband for putting together the so-called automatic slumber party update system, which took over for a couple of hours there when I nodded off. Still, I'm beat! It is definitely a hat and sunglasses kind of day for me today.

In addition to partying, I got some wild knitting done. I finished the front of native and even spent some of the party last night weaving in the ends.

Now to sleep off this headache and then sew the wild beast together!
