Last night I gave in to the madness and signed up for the Ravelympics and The Goddess of Lace’s sock swap. I know, I know. This is clearly too much. I may not be to blame however, as I am still riding the euphoria that is Rhinebeck. Ack. So, I have decided that the best [...]

Someone had a birthday today. Two someones actually. We had a Mega Bounce House. We had presents. And we had cake. Good fun was had by all. In other news, I finished the first Cleopatra Stocking. Are you wondering what the white tail is sticking out? That’s a [...]
On Life

Ok, so life has been a little unkind lately. Not so much in a full on kick you in the teeth sort of way, but more so in a hey, check out what’s important to you and make sure you make time for it sort of way. Again, with the cryptic, I know. More details? [...]

I have been on the fence lately about lace knitting. I keep buying lace yarn, because I want so much to be a lace knitter. However, I am forced to face the fact that my lace knitting spends more time in the time out basket than in my hands. Oh well, I shall persevere. As [...]

Life has been a tich stressful lately. Seems as though the things that I thought would be a slam dunk have been a big ‘ol mess and the things that I thought would be uber tough ended up turning out in the end. Could I be more cryptic? I doubt it, but suffice to say, [...]
Happy Birthday Baby

Monkey is One today. I can’t believe how far she has come from when we first brought her home. She was perfect from the first minute of being born. Easy going and snugly, but still determined and busy as hell, she makes me laugh from the moment she wakes in the morning, until the [...]
Needle in a Haystack

Have I shown you the dpn tubes that I picked up from a friend? I loves these. I actually lost a needle a few weeks ago. I stood up to go plug my meter and when I came back and sat down, the needle from one of my socks was gone! Seriously. So, to combat [...]

The first Spring Forward sock has sprung off the needles and the second one has jumped onto my needles. I think that the Duet Skinny is now my new favorite sock yarn. Just the perfect balance of sproingy and smooshy. As well, I have been working on the Embossed Leaves socks in Conjoined [...]

Laces Out!

I think I am at the half way mark for my SOTS II stole, which is great since the stole KAL ended, um, back in March. The nice thing about this stole is that there is an ability to add extra rows which I have chosen to do as the Socks that Rock Laci that [...]
