Countdown, day 12
Today's pattern is Excursion. You can get it on ravelry for 25% off with the code COUNTDOWN. What's going on? I'm doing a countdown sale. Every day through December 24, I'm putting one pattern on sale. I started with socks and am now moving on to quicker projects (think slippers then hats then cuffs) as the time gets shorter. Each sale lasts until 11:59pm eastern time that day. I'll be posting about it here on the blog as well as on Instagram and Twitter. If you want to be sure to see today's sale, you can either swing by the [...]
Wash them
Wash your knitting needles people. You spend hours holding them. Anything that's on your hands (lotion...hair stuff...chapstick...possibly that pizza you had for lunch) is on there too. Just chuck them a sink full of warm soapy water (ahem, making sure you don't send them down the drain...that's no fun) and let them hang out for a bit. You can use the same soap you use to wash/block your knits, I like Soak (as always, amazon links are affiliate links). After they've sat for a few minutes, rinse them off, and dry them off with a soft towel. They'll feel so [...]

Countdown, day 9 & 10
Today's pattern is...actually a book! Ne'er-do-Well Knits is available again for this weekend only. You can get it on ravelry for 25% off with the code COUNTDOWN. I get lots of requests to make the patterns from this one available individually. And I am, alas, not going to do that (I really hate breaking books up). But this is a chance to get the whole book for less than what two patterns would usually cost. So, if you've been waiting for these, grab them while you can (the book goes back in the vault once the weekend is over). What's [...]
Oh look, they grew!
Clicking along quite nicely if I do say so myself! I'm actually starting to feel like both sides of this are nice, and you could carry the patterning on down the whole leg instead of folding down a cuff if you wanted. I like it when knitting comes with options! Though I always have a fondness for ribbing where the bigger parts are purl and the narrower parts are knit, so I suspect I'll wear them like this.

More Mending
So remember that sweater? The one that I spent far too much time mending already (scroll down...you'll see it)? Yeah...yeah so it's due for another round. It's got a few holes (I wear it all the time, I climb on rocks and through prickly things more than I should, and I have kittens...holes are a given). I've got some thread, and I clearly have an excess of free time. I should probably just find another pajama sweater...I've had this one since at least 2014 and I've worn it more than just about anything else in my closet. But I love [...]
