Not much knitting to show you today as I am working on some very boring stockinette while I wait to get started on the next Cookie A. KAL sock. So, instead I thought I would share a little bit about Bunny and some of the things she does to make me laugh. My oldest, Bunny, [...]

The first Cookie A. KAL socks are done. A huge thanks to all those who voted. The pairing of yarn and pattern couldn’t have been more perfect! I will be casting on for the second pair of the KAL on Monday, June 1, so you have until Sunday night sometime to get in a vote [...]

Well, it looks as though you all were bang on regarding the Lilac Mist Squoosh sock yarn that you choose for Glynis. See how pretty? Given that you all were so right the last time, let’s see if you can work your magic again and come up with something just right for this months sock. [...]

New Pedicure: New Sock: Finished baby sweater: Get your sweater details here. p.s. I wrote most of this post last night and when I woke up this morning, it was snowing. Perhaps I angered mother nature when I threw caution to the wind and dared to get a pedicure…

Dudes, I think these socks may be cursed. It’s too soon to tell, just yet; but look at the yarn barf that I ended up with yesterday. But, fear not, all is right with the world again. I got it rewound (only took 6 tries, seriously!) and have cast on for Glynis. I love this [...]

The VaVaVoom Vest is finished. Done Like Dinner. Finito. I have pictures, finally. And, I like it… It fits like a glove and works so well over a black dress shirt and pants. Too bad that winter is nearly over. It almost makes me miss the snow… p.s. The sock yarn vote in my previous [...]

It seems as though I have a little problem with indecision. A big problem, actually. See, I signed up for a knit along for Cookie A.’s new book; Sock Innovation. And, the idea is that we will KAL one sock from the book (in order) each month. But, I have a problem with which yarn [...]

I have so very much to show you. I have been such a busy girl this past week. The yarn? Hazel Knits in 117 Chuckanut Drive. Bought while on vacation in Seattle (the first time) and cast on the other night. Didn’t even know these were a self-striping. I suspect the dyer didn’t actually plan [...]
