My new start for 2022…Here We Gnome Again by Sarah Schira. Yes, the hat is fiddly. But, how cute? Ice blue acrylic of unknown origin seems a perfectly cold January color. The alternative is to work on my Starflanket which is in the naughty corner. I don’t like the way the inc/dec sections of the […]
Read MoreThree finishes, and a first. The Bias Pink Shawl is yet another iteration of my standard recipe shawl…a wardrobe staple. CO3, inc up one side almost to desired length/yarn usage, change from stockinette to (yo,k2tog) just long enough so that yarn-chicken isn’t necessary to complete a stretchy BO. A lovely layer that will go with […]
Read MoreAnkers Summer Top and Pink Ranunculas are done….woohoo! Sock are also done, the heels made perfect in the car knitting while waiting for M at an appointment. Bottom left is a beige silk/linen Cedar Pullover which has been frogged twice due to sizing issues. Who knew! I love the fabric and it should be loose […]
Read MoreFinished 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 […]
Read MoreIsn’t the Basket Weave sweater is progressing nicely? Its just a bit boxy like a comfy sweatshirt. As usual when designing on the fly, the first sleeve has been reworked…this is #4, to get the decrease slope correct. Sunday evening I was about 9″ in, when I realized I had a sleeve that would fit […]

I don’t want to hear or see anymore, leave me alone and let me knit in peace, take care of my husband, and work from my home office. Call me when I can go out again! On any given weekend, I would […]

It’s been a busy 5 months! Where do I start?! Well, how about with finished objects? 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 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!
