Countdown, day 21
Today's pattern is...actually a book, The Knitter's Curiosity Cabinet, Volume III. You can get it on ravelry for 25% off with the code COUNTDOWN. People ask all the time if the patterns from this are available individually, and I confess they are not. I don't like splitting up books (they're so much more fun as a whole package). But this is a chance to get all the patterns in the book for less than the cost of 3 individual patterns, so it's a heck of a deal! What's going on? I'm doing a countdown sale. Every day through December 24, [...]
So I have this idea…
So that lovely purple Hedgehog Fibres yarn I bought? It's because I have an idea. But when it came it was a teeny tiny bit skinnier than what I had in mind for that particular idea. (This is not a complaint about the yarn, the yarn is lovely and exactly as advertised. It's just a demonstration that it can be hard to judge yarn online.) And I happened to find myself at Over The Rainbow Yarn not too much later, and I thought I'd see if they happened to have something similarly lovely, just maybe a tiny bit thicker. And [...]

Behold!
Behold, an actual finished sock. Ends woven in and everything! And, just as important, sock two is underway. Well underway as a matter of fact! It's amazing what a deadline will do... [pextestim pex_attr_set="looking-for-this-pattern" pex_attr_autoplay="false"][/pextestim]

This should be fun…
The yarn fairy came (Skinny Singles by Hedgehog Fibres in Ghost, I got mine from Eat Sleep Knit). And then this happened...this is a fairly normal thing. And thin this happened...and that is not at all normal. Yes, yes I am trying again to make something on circs (these, as always, amazon links are affiliate links). We'll see how that works out. Generally it leads to muttering which quickly progresses to swearing and throwing things. But I don't have any long DPNs in that size (please, for the love of wool, if you make 12-14 inch DPNs in sizes 2, [...]
Countdown, day 18
Today's pattern is Spicule. You can get it on ravelry for 25% off with the code COUNTDOWN. What's going on? I'm doing a countdown sale. Every day through December 24, I'm putting one pattern on sale. I started with socks and am now moving on to quicker projects (think slippers then hats then cuffs) as the time gets shorter. Each sale lasts until 11:59pm eastern time that day. I'll be posting about it here on the blog as well as on Instagram and Twitter. If you want to be sure to see today's sale, you can either swing by the [...]

Told you they were cute!
Don't worry, the sock has not been abandoned! There's actually been an awful lot of knitting going on behind the scenes these days, I've got a fairly alarming amount of back log I should be showing off... But for today, we're sticking with the socks. And just to recap, this is with Mineville Wool Project's merino cashmere nylon blend in the color Minegold (but they do short run yarns so I can't promise you can find this exact color any more). And this will almost certainly be January's pattern. If you want to hear when it's out (and get [...]
