Call for Testers
The newest sock is ready to go to testers. I know some people have been upset to miss testing opportunities in the past, so I thought I'd mention it here too just to give everyone a shot. If you'd like to try for a chance to test these, head over [...]
Brrrr
Now that it's officially November, I've succumbed to temptation and turned on the heat. Woolly socks are marvelous things, but they can do only so much once the lows dip into the 30s. However, the cold weather does provide lovely atmospheric backdrops for photos. Or at least that's the excuse [...]
Felled by the Flu
I have been felled by the flu. I have spent the last two days in bed taking strenuous naps and accomplishing precisely nothing useful. Today I felt human enough to stand up but still far from functional. I tried to read (I'm a grad student, reading is my day job) [...]
Winner!
And the winner is...Steph, with comment 52! I'll be emailing you later today to arrange to send you your goodies. Thanks to everyone who entered, and thanks for all the nice comments about the socks. I'll be placing an order for more of the Three Irish Girls yarn some time [...]
Calcareous
Calcareous is live, click here if you'd like to make yourself a pair, or to find out what I meant by yesterday's crack about my misspent youth. I also have the distinct pleasure of announcing that Sharon at Three Irish Girls has graciously agreed to donate a skein of the [...]
Criminal Underworld
My newest pattern, and a brief account of my youthful descent into the criminal underworld, will be appearing tomorrow or the next day. In the meantime, I can show you a picture of the finished socks, and tell you that their name is Calcareous. The socks I showed you last [...]
Almost Sunny
You'll note I said almost. It's been raining every day, and we still haven't had a day that would qualify as actually sunny. Despite these meteorological impediments, I still managed to get outside, sock and camera in hand, and get a picture of the newest socks. In addition to being [...]
Yarn Part the Second
As I mentioned earlier, when I was at Sock Summit, I had the marvelous experience of picking out yarn from several dyers who had asked me to design socks for them. It was great fun, even if it still feels a little bit like crime. One of the talented dyers [...]
Filthy Lies
I know I promised information about a new sock pattern in this post. Not only have I kept you waiting a shamefully long time, but it turns out I was full of lies about that new pattern bit. There is a new pattern (there are actually several) and I will [...]
Mystery Knit Along
The first part of my first mystery knit along pattern is up. It can be found here. The discussion thread for the project is here. Those are both Ravelry links. The pattern is currently (and will likely remain) available only on Ravelry. If you're not signed up yet, shame on [...]
