And this is done too
I'm pretty sure this is cuter and more fun than should be allowed... Of course it's also unblocked and has its ends waving shamelessly in the wind. But we won't talk about that. How about we distract ourselves with the cute way the top of the hat folds over on [...]
And done!
I'm calling this little patch of stitching done! That's the one I just did now, and just for reminders, here are the ones I did back in November. That's the one on the cuff. And that's the one on the front near the pocket. And here's the one on the [...]
Good Mail
One of the many lovely things about this job is all the good mail it generates. There are few things more fun to find in the mailbox than some yummy yarn. And when it's book yarn selecting time, you get a lot of good yarn in the mail! That's Merino [...]
Next…
This is just about ready for the decreases. Which means it's time to start figuring out what to do for the third one (the blue one here). Expect swatches soon...
One more round
Remember back in November when I had some holes in an old sweater? And I hated the idea of shopping so much that I decided to embroider over the things instead of buying a new sweater (you can follow along on the whole adventure over here if you're so inclined, [...]
So when I say a set…
So when I say I'm thinking of doing a set, I'm speaking fairly loosely. We're not talking a hat and mitts and a cowl, we're talking a few pieces that all explore a similar idea. In this case, that idea is 'what if I start with a lovely, neutral background [...]
Because one is never enough
The hat continues to grow, and I continue to be hopelessly smitten with it. It starts out with the rows of doobly-dos all squinched up together, but then as you go along they spread out. I love having things taper off like that. It makes it feel like the hat [...]
Just in time
This is growing, and I'm loving it. And apparently we're going to have one last snowstorm (oh please let it be this winter's last...I'm so ready for spring), so maybe I'll get some time to tuck in and finish it up. The wee twirly bits are going to spread out [...]
I’m sensing a theme
I'm sort of loving this mellow gray yarn as a background, funky colorful single for an accent thing. I think there may end up being a few of these. So far it's going well. And you know I love how it came out for the hat that just came out. [...]
Entrapment (plus giveaway)
You know that feeling you get when you're doing something that's actually really easy but looks super impressive? That feeling that sits dangerously close to smug self satisfaction? That feeling is what Entrapment is all about! I know it looks like you're doing something complicated there, but you're really not. [...]
