I finshed another pair of socks. Well, I actually finished two pairs, but one pair still needs to be blocked. I think perhaps tonight might just be the night. Pattern: Embossed Leaves by Mona Schmidt Yarn: Wollmeise 100% merino (Were you expecting anything else?) We are all busy fighting off colds, making quiche, and going [...]

Lest You Thought I Was Dead…

It’s been over a month since I last blogged. Wow. Time flies when you are this busy. What’s kept me away? Work, work travel, and contract knitting. I knew it was time to cut down on the work travel when TG and I had this conversation two Monday’s ago: Me: Hi honey. I will be [...]
Off. Like M’bra.

So, TG and I are hopping off into the Skies and heading out to the city of beads. That’s right, we are headed off to New Orleans for almost Mardi Gras. And, no, despite the title of this blog post, I won’t be showin’ my 38 longs and collecting beads. We are going for the [...]

I really need to get my butt in gear and take some pics of my knits in progress as there are a few noteworthy projects on the needles right now. But, honestly, it is so dark by the time that I get home that I just can’t seem to bring myself to take any photos. [...]

I have a sore throat. So, I thought the right thing to do would be to get in a blog post before the thing that is to be a head cold takes over my body and I am no longer able to make sense at all. I knit a fish. It is also a hat. [...]
On Completion

I finished the Mushroom sweater on October 22, 2009. I don’t know why I haven’t blogged about it sooner. It fits like a dream. I swear. I used less than four balls of Malabrigo and added about 3 inches of length. I normally have to do this because most patterns don’t [...]
Where Did That Time Go?

Wow, I just realized that it has been almost a month since I last blogged. How did that happen? I may never know. Would you like to see what I have been doing? I knit me some Monkeys out of Wollmeise 100% sockenwolle in Terra di Sienna. I started a couple of Kitty Pi’s And [...]

This may well be my last post before Sock Summit. So, without further ado, here are the finished Eunice Socks. All the details here. I still say they look like tree bark socks. There is still time to vote on the next pair of socks in the Cookie A. KAL. So, go vote, damnit! Check [...]
