Me? Seriously? Me?
In one of those truly mind bending moments, I find myself in the running to be one of the designers of the month on the 2009-2010 Sock Knitters Anonymous schedule. In case you're not on Ravelry (and really, why aren't you? There isn't even a waiting list anymore! Go sign [...]
Any Minute Now
The testers (skilled and speedy knitters that they are) have succesfully made the Pedigreed socks. The pattern is almost done (all 13 pages and 8 giant charts of it). With any luck at all, I should have it out early next week. Start your finger excercises now. This is not [...]
Propitiate
They're done! Two legs, two heels, two toes. All finished, and I even got them on The Boy and him outside before the sun went down. See? More about them and how you too can knit them for your very own feet can be found right here.
Clickity Click
Propitiate is almost done. They need a few more hours of knitting, Wednesday is the goal. The real question is how much does having them finished matter? Is it ok to release a pattern that just shows one finished sock, or do you prefer to see both of the socks [...]
More and yet More
As promised, the rest of the news. First, I'm thrilled to announce I'll be designing a sock for another yarn/pattern club. This one is a little different. There is a theme - Wicked Women - and it's a joint effort. It's a three installment club with an exclusive yarn and [...]
Lots of Business, Very Little Knitting
Pardon the uncharacteristic quiet. My non-knitting life has been intruding to an entirely unjustified degree on my knitting. I'm in the final week of a 6 month project and busy writing my little graduate student heart out. By the time I've met my writing quota for the day my arms [...]
Q and A
So I've been just thrilled by the response I've gotten to the patterns I've made available for sale. Seriously, thrilled. The Boy can attest to the rather ridiculous happy dance and squee of glee that accompanies most checks of my sales and website statistics. More people have bought my patterns [...]
All Downhill from Here
The first of the Propitiate socks is done and the second cast on. The first draft of the patten is written, and I'll likely have it out to testers next weekend (and hopefully available about two weeks after that). This pattern is going to include instructions for the sock as [...]
Embonpoint Done
The next step on the path to Violently Domestic's world domination has been taken. The pattern for Embonpoint is finished, tested, and available for sale! These socks are intended to be worked on slightly thicker yarn (they were designed specifically for Schaefer Yarn Company's marvelous new yarn Nichole yarn) and [...]
Loot!
Alas, poorly photographed loot, but loot none the less. So yesterday I hauled my somnolent form out of bed at 4 in the morning and somehow managed to make my way to Columbus for Knitter's Connection. I took a class on reading Japanese patterns. The class was well done and [...]
