I do still knit and here’s some proof. 2 lovely pairs of socks. One with that new tomato heel. The jury is still out on if I really like it or not, but it was fun for this pair. The purple pair is my friend Julie’s pattern Monet’s Twist with a few variations. I’ve basically [...] Well it seems that since I started quilting, my knitting and spinning has slowed to a snail pace. It got even slower now that I’m working on the Farmer’s Wife. So, it’s slow, but not forgotten. I joined Knitspot’s Fall In Color Club and this is the first pattern – Long Shadows. I had [...] I’ve been working really hard to finish up some really old projects. They had been WIPs way too long and that had to come to an end. In a finish or frog it decision I decided to felt this mitten and make it a cat toy. It was too big and I was not [...] So I have not forgotten to knit. I’ve been working on the Northern Lights Shawl (a Rav freebie) with my newly purchased Sophie’s Toes Magic Ball in Preppy Girl. This is my project page if your interested in my notes. I managed to whip up this large knitting bag and the shawl even on [...] I have a few finishes under my belt this year that finally have been photographed. Yeah! I knew you were all worried I abandoned knitting and it’s been nothing but quilting, quilting and more quilting, but as you can see there was no need to worry.

[...] Yesterday I started the day off with a bang by finishing two pairs of socks. A lovely simple car sock (my favorite pattern is Classic Socks for the Family, but there seems to be a lot of free ones on Rav that have a similar recipe) – that just needed kitchnering and the second [...] "I'm so handsome in my new sweater." "Finally! I get a sweater." Here’s the Rav link. This was really a fun project and happily it blocked out large since my gauge was off. He pranced around the back yard ready for his close-up. Big thanks to Lucky Penny Knits for a [...] Yeah! All the squares are done and now it’s onto collar and cuffs. A completed Yoda sweater for Max is on the horizon. Coco says she’s not jealous. Happy Dog’s on Thursday. [...] Last week the Gumdrop socks met the frog pond. Can you see the trouble with sock two. I know, I know… heinous in sock knitting. One cuff is shorter by 1/2 inch and I messed up which diamond to start the heel on. I really felt no love lost with this project – so [...] |
