Nothing like a solo trip to help get some knitting done. I flew up to Vermont to see my Dad on Memorial Day weekend. Lots of sitting around in airports and on planes – and lots of time to knit. I managed to finish a couple things (before I came home and cast on a […]
The day before Mother’s Day I was out shopping with my daughter. We stopped in AC Moore for a minute – not for anything knitting related, but I did find myself over in the yarn section somehow. I hadn’t really been looking for it, but noticed they had some of the Patons Kroy sock yarn […]
In just about two weeks I’m finally going to get to meet my step-sister’s baby!! Her parents are really great about putting gorgeous pictures of her on Facebook and Instagram, showing off her amazing smile and eyes. I can’t wait to meet her in person!! I’m bringing her the pretty little sweater shown above. It’s […]
Last week I laid out my plan to get my startosis problem under control – and hopefully to start to see some progress on my projects and get some finished objects to show off soon. I gave each of my Top Four a little love this week. So — progress but still — it will […]
So another couple of months have passed without a blog entry. I have been knitting, and have actually finished a couple of things. The biggest news of the past couple of months is that Stephanie Pearl-McPhee, the Yarn Harlot herself, visited our local yarn shop (Yarns Etc) this month. What a great weekend! It started […]
My goodness it has been a LONG time since my last post. I thought I’d be getting back on track after I posted in early July, but I guess not! I’m still trucking along with Camp Loopy. I did project #2 with time to spare. Not in love with it, but I think it’s because […]
Last weekend I focused on one thing: finishing up the Saroyan scarf for my director. I finished the knitting late Friday night (actually Saturday morning!) and then wove in the ends and blocked it the next day. The first thing I did before blocking was to stretch it out on the floor of my bedroom […]
As I posted earlier this week, I finished the Cradle Cardigan and am just in love with it! I also finished the coordinated beret as seen below: Just too cute. I just need to get them in the mail now. Here’s a photo of both together. Not a great shot. So I’ve been looking at […]
I spent a lot of time with my little Cradle Cardigan this week. Actually finished it off last night, and put it in for a good soak. This is it right after I took it out of it’s bath. It still looks “bumpy” to me in this picture. But this morning, it looked a lot […]
I took a little break from knitting for my classes to finish up a couple other projects. The first one is the hat I’m making for Sophie. I sent her a picture of the yarn, but she will be surprised to see the finished product. Hoping to get it in the mail tomorrow. It is […]
