Tiny Nonsense

Countdown, day 23

Today's pattern is...actually a book, Curls.  You can get it on ravelry for 25% off with the code COUNTDOWN. People ask all the time if the patterns from this are available individually, and I confess they are not.  I don't like splitting up books (they're so much more fun as a whole package, and Curls books are full of all sorts of informational material at the beginning that you don't want to miss).  But this is a chance to get all the patterns in the book for less than the cost of 3 individual patterns, so it's a heck of [...]

Practically speedy

Greeny McGreensalot the Second is coming along quickly. It's almost like I really really really like them and want them done soon so I can wear them and take photos of them and get the pattern out or something. These will almost certainly be the next pattern out...the pattern's all written and tested, I just need pictures of the finished sock to call it good.  So hang in there, I'll have them out to you as soon as I can!   [pextestim pex_attr_set="looking-for-this-pattern" pex_attr_autoplay="false"][/pextestim]

Countdown, day 22

Today's pattern is...actually a book, Fine Things for Plain Occasions.  You can get it on ravelry for 25% off with the code COUNTDOWN. The code will work on both the electronic and the paper + electronic combo that raverly has.  Ravelry is phasing out their paper books, so this is pretty much your last chance to get a free copy of the electronic book when you buy the paper one! People ask all the time if the patterns from this are available individually, and I confess they are not.  I don't like splitting up books (they're so much more fun [...]

Countdown, day 21

Today's pattern is...actually a book, The Knitter's Curiosity Cabinet, Volume III.  You can get it on ravelry for 25% off with the code COUNTDOWN. People ask all the time if the patterns from this are available individually, and I confess they are not.  I don't like splitting up books (they're so much more fun as a whole package).  But this is a chance to get all the patterns in the book for less than the cost of 3 individual patterns, so it's a heck of a deal! What's going on? I'm doing a countdown sale. Every day through December 24, [...]

So I have this idea…

So that lovely purple Hedgehog Fibres yarn I bought? It's because I have an idea.  But when it came it was a teeny tiny bit skinnier than what I had in mind for that particular idea. (This is not a complaint about the yarn, the yarn is lovely and exactly as advertised.  It's just a demonstration that it can be hard to judge yarn online.)  And I happened to find myself at Over The Rainbow Yarn not too much later, and I thought I'd see if they happened to have something similarly lovely, just maybe a tiny bit thicker.  And [...]

Behold!

Behold, an actual finished sock.  Ends woven in and everything! And, just as important, sock two is underway. Well underway as a matter of fact! It's amazing what a deadline will do...   [pextestim pex_attr_set="looking-for-this-pattern" pex_attr_autoplay="false"][/pextestim]

Countdown, day 19

Today's pattern is...actually a book, The Knitter's Curiosity Cabinet.  You can get it on ravelry for 25% off with the code COUNTDOWN. People ask all the time if the patterns from this are available individually, and I confess they are not.  I don't like splitting up books (they're so much more fun as a whole package).  But this is a chance to get all 20 patterns in the book for less than the cost of 3 individual patterns, so it's a heck of a deal! What's going on? I'm doing a countdown sale. Every day through December 24, I'm putting [...]

This should be fun…

The yarn fairy came (Skinny Singles by Hedgehog Fibres in Ghost, I got mine from Eat Sleep Knit). And then this happened...this is a fairly normal thing. And thin this happened...and that is not at all normal. Yes, yes I am trying again to make something on circs (these, as always, amazon links are affiliate links).  We'll see how that works out.  Generally it leads to muttering which quickly progresses to swearing and throwing things.  But I don't have any long DPNs in that size (please, for the love of wool, if you make 12-14 inch DPNs in sizes 2, [...]
