I started another clap. This one is being knit out of the Wollmeise; but this time I am using a color called Krauterbeet. It’s also not for me. Once I finish this clapotis, I have only one more pair of socks to knit and I can call the contract knitting quits. Wish me speedy needles.

I’m Looking for Something in Red

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’ve Got the Clap Again, Baby

Hey, remember the Clapotis that I posted about back at the beginning of May? Well, I am finally at the dropping stitches part. I had forgotten how liberating dropping stitches can be. I really didn’t like Manos at first. I kind of felt like it was the uglier cousin of Malabrigo. Sort of the black [...]
Kickin it old school…

Right now in my house, a weird thing is happening. TG and Bunny are kickin’ it old school and enjoying a bit of gaming action, Sega style. Seriously! Bunny has been begging TG all week to pull out his old Sega gaming system and get it hooked up. See, this past weekend, she found some [...]
The Best of Intentions

I wanted to show you a finished Imogen (ravelry link) today. I really did. However, since I cast off, I have been struggling with a rolling edge on the bottom part of the sweater that neither a good steam or soak blocking will fix. See, because the back of the sweater is really just a [...]
Whew… We Made It

On the other side of the pestilence that rocked this house, I find myself doing odd things. For example, I constantly think that I hear a baby crying. In the shower, while I am doing laundry, sleeping… and I find myself straining to hear if it is the baby that has been crying for the [...]
Gearing up for the BIG Day

The pink mystery thing is starting to take shape. It should now be patently obvious that it is a Sock Monkey a la Blue Moon. This is one of the two kits that I picked up at Rhinebeck and I am trying to get all sock monkeys finished for Christmas for the small people in [...]
On Rhinebeck (Ok, Not Really)
Posted in FO's, project photos, Rhinebeck, Scarf, Socks, Travel on October 24, 2008 | 1 Comment »
Wow, so I really screwed the pooch messed up and forgot to take any pictures of Rhinebeck. I have pictures of New York, Brooklyn, New Jersey, and even Woodstock, but no pictures, what so ever of Rhinebeck. I think at that point, I was just plain delirious and perhaps a little high on wool fumes [...]
Match-y Match-y

Look what jumped onto my needles. Now that the Malabrigo Mitts are done, I decided that I needed a matching scarf to keep me warm (and stylish) this winter. Truth be told, this scarf, although simple, has been a serious pain in my butt. I actually cast on for it 4 times, [...]
