Neeeeext!
Those lovely blue cabled socks? The ones you kept asking about? They'll be going up for sale on Tuesday. This is just a heads up so you can go pick yarn and make plans (it's written for either 7, 8, or 9 stitches per inch so you'll be able to [...]
A Good Start
Did I mention I'm deep in the middle of the next book (the one that should be out in early fall 2015)? I'm at that stage where all the patterns are written and most of the projects back with me. The sock part of the projects look a little something [...]
One Sock Two Sock
So, that's two finished socks. Alas (and I didn't realize this till I took them both outside in the daylight), they seem to be two slightly different colored finished socks. I'm going to try very hard to tell myself I don't care (I mean really, if I didn't notice while [...]
Rescue Mission
While I did not buy any yarn at Rhinebeck, I did get myself two little treats. One was the blanket I told you about back in October (and which I continue to adore). The other was a purse from Julia Hilbrandt. I love it, it is just the right size [...]
Winding
Here's hoping you find all of your favorite knitting treats under the tree or in your stocking! Image from the Library of Congress' website (and it looks like it's old enough that it's fine to use here).
Industrious
This is what things have looked like around for the last little while. That's what it looks like when you set out more than 500 envelopes for the postman in one day (don't worry, I told them they were coming, and I helped load the truck). Do that for a [...]
Shades
I've wanted to do an all gray book for, um, forever. I just kept telling myself no. No, no one will like it. No, people will think it's boring. No, all the projects will look the same. No, it will be hard to photograph. You know what? I'm doing an [...]
Additions
The Chez Violence Home for Wayward Knitting Props is adding a wing. Or maybe it's just a room? However we're justifying it, I am now the proud owner of a Nifty Old Trunk. Strange as it sounds, I actually need it as a photo prop for Book the Next (yes, [...]
43 and a Toe
Sock the first is done (that's him, smugly pleased with his blocked state, there in the background). Sock the second has a leg, a heel, and even a gusset. He only needs 43 rows and a toe to be finished (yes, yes I do count rows and keep an obsessive [...]
Close Enough
There is no sun. The sun is gone. The sun will never shine again. It will be gray, and probably sleeting, until the end of time. This means I will never get a good picture of this sock. We'll just have to accept this and move on. We can console [...]
