Finished these three Miettes, May 20 – June 13! Still have to weave in the ends, but wow! Of course, by the time #3 was mostly done I had made some minor alterations that made the knitting lay smoother on the edges and makes me want to go back and redo #1, except that I […]

Knit some more socks… I’ve just about finished a Tegna from some nice raspberry colored cotton, the back is done on another Deschain in green linen, there is another pair of socks in progress in the car… And I’m […]
Read MoreSpending a moment on this gorgeous afternoon with my feet up on a rail….a glass code by….and a good book! Dreaming of new projects and contemplating those close to being finished. What are you knitting today?
Read MoreAs the weather turns cooler I definitely want to knit warmer things! I finished my All the Love in 8 days…it’s blocked and modeled (with the ends still sticking out). Playing yarn chicken necessitated short sleeves and a slightly shorter body but it is so soft I’m looking forward to wearing it! My first gift […]
Read MoreWell today is Wednesday….All the Love has been on the needles four days. (At 7am today doesn’t count!) I’m already 3+ inches past the arm hole join! This cashmere blend is so soft! Gotta get a round in before getting ready for work… Happy Knitting!
