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 […]

I still can’t believe it! I knit all the way through sections 3 and 4 on my On The Spice Market shawl. As I wrote out the instructions for sections 5 and 6….I discovered a massive error in my transcribing! In three places in section 4 I wrote – and knit – kfb – when […]
Started the fabulous On The Spice Market shawl on March 4th…section 3 hand me confused until I just started knitting it, wow…! The yarn is Hippo for Mardi Gras 2018, plus the minis that go with it, on 3.25mm needles. I’m not sure I like all the garter stitch that is coming off the needles […]
My best man decided we should do brunch at the suggestion of a co-worker. Griffin Tavern in Flint Hill….was awesome! The staff was warm and wonderful, the food was creative and executed perfectly and the site itself was really nice. If the weather had been better we could have eaten outside, there is also a […]
