In theory, it's all about the fiber – knitting, crocheting, sewing, and spinning – but really, it's all about my life.
I’m up to the heel on my STR Leyburn Socks, and I’m completely in love with them. The color isn’t very accurate in that shot, because I took it indoors at night, but you can see the pattern. It’s awesome. The KAL on Ravelry is lots of fun, too – all those colorways! Artsy-fartsy closeup!
Just saw this post over on Insaknitty’s blog, and I’m joining in. I think it’s a brilliant idea. To quote: 2009 is going to be the Year of Decisions. I’m tired of my WIP pile getting out of control. I often lose interest in a project or fall out of love with it. Sometimes it [...]
Yup. I’m a sheep. Why this time? Well, I got a message on Ravelry that someone had linked to my profile in a post. Specifically, Cristi linked to me to ask me if I wanted to join in on the Leyburn Socks KAL in the Socks That Rawk! group. Basically, they are taking this lovely [...]
Presenting the answer for those of us who knew better than to do Knit From Your Stash 2007: This one I’m pretty sure I can stick with. Off to Little Knits! …and Knit Picks! …and WEBS! …and StitchDC! …and All About Yarn!
By the rules in this article from Knitty, this qulifies as Souvenir Yarn because I bought it at Great Yarns in Raleigh last weekend with Mtwelovett, but I do actually have plans for it. My very first Malabrigo! Yes, I know – it sounds crazy, but I’ve honestly not owned any before now. It’s lovely [...]
Yes, I joined the Fair Isle February knitalong. I am planning to make the KnitPicks Palette Fair Isle Cardigan, but I decided to dip my toes in with a slightly more portable project first – Kris’s We Call Them Pirates hat. Yes, the one I promised him ages ago. I started it Saturday night while [...]
OK, I finally remembered to scan in the picture of the sweater I am doing for the Grey’s Anatomy KAL. The Handyman sweater, from Knitter’s Fall 2005 issue. The dark brown part will be done in black, and the mustard-yellow part will be done in grey. Woo hoo – my husband, the fashion wild man. [...]
In honor of Talk Like a Pirate Day, this picture that Kris took at the Ren Fair this weekend: How awesome is that? His name is Stefan Rosario – he’s the nicest guy, and he has a great gallery of pictures people have sent him here. We were chatting with him while looking at kilts [...]
Hee… yeah, because I have a public. =) Seriously, you guys crack me up. Anyway, nothing much going on here (No, Cristi, seriously), but I do have a couple of pictures to show. First – I joined the Monthly Dishcloth KAL, and the mid-month one for August was the first pattern I did. (I skipped [...]
