Growing
Alrighty. You should be able to see what's going on here now a bit better. It's about 4.5 inches tall now and I'm really liking it. The colors absolutely work together (not sure I could wear that particular color of greeny-yellow without looking like I'd eaten bad clams, but the [...]
Wee Hats, Part 1 (Not so Wee)
I've learned something. Five year olds have heads that are more or less the same size as adult humans. At least some five year olds do. My secret plan is to go for super stretchy and thus forgiving as to size (and also hopefully thus somewhat long lasting). This is [...]
All Official Like
Lookie what I got in the mail: That's my lovely spiffy notice from the Copyright Office saying that Knitter's Curiosity Cabinet is all registered and official. I find it amuses me to no end (though admittedly, I am easily amused). I'm still tickled that I seem to have managed to [...]
Unheard Of I Tell You
As predicted, 45 minutes of knitting brought about the end of the second sock. That's two whole socks...all the way down to the toes. I wouldn't make such a big deal of this, but these are the, um, second pair of socks I've managed to finish this year. Now that [...]
Nifty
So that thing? Where you use sticks to pull loops of yarn through other loops of yarn? And get a shaped and decorated fabric as a result? Yeah. Turns out I like that. I actually found an hour to sit still and do it this weekend. Amazing I know. Turns [...]
Looming
Sorry for the radio silence over the last few days. I'm finishing up a big stage of the behind-the-scenes stuff for KCC2. The bulk of it goes off to the layout artist on September 1, which means I need to have it, say...finished...by September 1. Wait...I did tell you guys [...]
Happy News
I'm going to share a very happy sentence with you. Ready? 'My local brewery is starting a knitting night.' See? Isn't that an awesome sentence? You can say it a few more times to savor it properly if you'd like. I'll wait. The brewery in question is The Bottle House. [...]
Stacks
Aiming for once a month on these, at least until they stop being amusing. Part of the stacks series, and as always click for the bigger version. Books show are What is Cultural History, A History of Our Time (mine is an older version, the link is to the most [...]
Rabble Rousers Yarn Giveaway, Last Chance
Giving all this yarn away has been so much fun. Well, there may possibly have been the occasional teeny tiny twinge when I mail out the oh-so-pretty goodies, but that's only to be expected. The fun parts far outweigh any such ignoble feelings. I must see if I can do [...]
Sidetracked
The sock, it is not yet finished. It was a productive weekend in lot of other ways though (if by productive you'll take 'relaxing' and 'enjoyable'), so I'll pretend I don't mind the delay. This is, of course, a filthy lie and the delay is actually driving me bonkers. But [...]
