Variations on a theme
You know how I've been telling you to block your knits? And showing you how much of a difference it makes? And perhaps you recall that the project I knit most recently was a bit willful when it was on the needles? Right. So you might imagine that this one [...]
TNNA
I am typing this from my hotel room in Indianapolis. I'm using 'update the blog' as a fairly shameless excuse to delay leaving my quiet, private hotel room and start walking the noisy, bustling show floor at TNNA. I know I'll have a great time once I actually convince myself [...]
Lucent
Ok, important stuff first (but do read to the end, I've got yarn to give away). This is Lucent. It's a marvelous little hat and cuff set. It was a Woolen Rabbit club pattern back in the fall. Ever since it came out, I've had oodles of folks asking when [...]
Soon…
So this happened. That's all the pieces and parts of KCC3, fresh from the printer. When you get a book made, you get lots and lots of packages with various iterations of the project. They all have jobs to do (check the color, make sure the pages are in the [...]
Under the big top, yarn and giveaway
I told you last time that I came home Friday to find a lovely little mood elevator hanging out on my front porch (yarn...fewer side effects than prozac, though it is rather habit forming). And, while I showed you Kitten Overlord Barry chilling in the box it came in, I [...]
HMS Cardboard
A box came in the mail yesterday. A box of lovely yarn from Jaala over at Knit Circus. The timing was perfect, as it was a cold, gray, rainy afternoon and The Boy was out of town and my sinuses were giving me fits and the dishwasher was broken and [...]
Amenable
The pattern for Amenable, the lovely, versatile socks I've been playing with for the last few months, is now up on ravelry. First things first, some pictures. Because I'm easily entertained and like pretty pictures. Now maybe a bit of that useful information stuff. Just in case that would come [...]
Upcoming
I think I have a plan. Well no, I totally have a plan, I always have a plan. It's more like I have a plan that is far enough along to do something bold like mention it publicly. Let's do a little run down, shall we? First up will be [...]
Conjugate
Shall we conjugate the verb snow? How about weep? Regardless of what mid-April snows do for one's state of mind (or one's sinuses), they do at least provide encouragement for knitting. The first mitt of the re-knit version of Adumbrate is done. I'm awfully fond of them. The thumb is [...]
Angles
Here is the same mitt from last time, just with its tendency to go all three three-pronged reigned in a bit by a handy glove form. This has actually grown a bit since the picture was taken. The thumb gusset is finished (and oh my goodness is it tidy, I [...]
