Isn’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 […]
Everywhere you turn, everything you hear…its all about current pandemic conditions. I’m done! 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 […]
I’ve already knit one I’m calling Orange Sherbet, a third set of socks are on the needles, a Plum Boxy is keeping me warm. I can’t wait to wear my Marettimo in Pink when we get some warmer weather! Wow, Ravelry says that’s already 4,140yds used this year….that’s a lot of stitches, and what a […]
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 […]
As 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 […]
Well 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!
Not quite cast-on-itis since all the pieces of my Aqua Frieze are done….Not in the mood to sew in ends today so taking the time to do some planning. The pink is a discontinued Cash Vera. I got gauge on 4mm needle to start an All the Love by Joji Locatelli. My plan is to […]
The feels like temp is supposed to be 105 today. Not really sweater weather yet…but it’s coming. Making great progress on my Aqua Frieze pullover, from…wow, all the way back to Knitter’s Summer 2015. The yarn is a Craftsy special from a couple years ago that has been struggling to become something! Son’s blanket is […]
Local Yarn Store day got me! The bamboo and Pima cotton are for now. I will dream fabulous smooshy-cashmere dreams until late fall! My drift sweater is blocking. Photos and all the details to come. So…..of course I’ve started something new! This is Snowflake by TinCanKnits in Elsebeth Lavoisier Silky Wool -Mallard. If you […]
