Once More With Feeling
The socks I mentioned the other day are out. I've called them Once More With Feeling to commemorate their magical transformer-style nature. When the bottoms (inevitably) wear out you can snip one stitch, do ten minutes of finishing, and have a pair of fingerless mitts made from the stitches of [...]
So Much for Restraint
It was supposed to be a swatch. It really was. But you see, I hate swatching in the round. I know how, I can do it, I just don't like to. So I went ahead and swatched over a whole cuff's worth of stitches. Then, well, then it was too [...]
It’s Quiet…Too Quiet
I finished the Greenhorn socks on Sunday. This, combined with my continuation of the knitting olympics finish-a-thon, means that I currently have no socks on the needles. None. Now sure I have a few single socks lingering in the back of the closet, but I have declared those 'showpiece socks,' [...]
It’s About Time…
So, about that news I mentioned the other day. Yeah. Um...There's going to be a book. I know, I'm rather surprised too. I've already gone through the transition from "really, me, are you sure?" to "hooray" to "what on earth am I getting myself into" to "I can so totally [...]
Still not the Big News
So this is still not it. There's a good chance the 'it' will be discussed tomorrow or Monday. Instead, I bring you some other news, this time accompanied by a photo. It's been an unreasonably long time since there has been a photo of a new sock. So, with no [...]
Not the Big News
Yeah yeah. Accuse me of toying with you. This is not the big news. We'll call it building suspense. It's actually me needing a few more days to get all of my ducks in a row. Let's pretend it's an intentional and ingenious plan to string you along instead. It [...]
Hmmm…
It's been an interesting few days at Chez Violence. Not the bad sort of interesting. Not even the 'I'm saying interesting because I can't think of a single other civil thing to say' sort of interesting. Nope, this is actually the exciting and potential-filled sort of interesting. The weekend was [...]
Caprice
Caprice is up! I know these have been a while in coming. I finished them way back in December (and have been happily wearing them in the months in between). I thought that, since there was snow in the pictures, I'd better hurry up and release them before all the [...]
And Yet More Testing
Lest you be worried I've abandoned socks (perish the thought), allow me to set your mind at ease. I've got the newest sock, greenhorn, up for testing. Click the picture for a much bigger version. As usual, the place to volunteer is on Ravelry. I need several testers for these, [...]
Testing
If you're itching to make them, the pink frilly confections I posted about the other day are up for testing. The thread with instructions is on Ravelry. If you'd like to volunteer, head on over. I'm picking testers Thursday morning.
