I have one little FO to share today. Presenting, the Awesome Girl! This was part of a quick swap on Ravelry - a friend wanted someone to knit this for her in exchange for yarn. I was happy to step up. The end result I think is pretty cute. There were some fiddly bits, but… Continue reading Awesome Girl

The State of Things
Oh May, oh my. I'm still working on my Vigorous Violet socks (finally ready for heels). I've pulled out two older projects that need serious attention. I really want to cast on for a new pair of socks (my May sock club yarn is "Wonderfully Super" by Yarntini - it's another self-striper with the most… Continue reading The State of Things
InstaFriday
I have no FOs this week. Knitting and crochet time has been minimal, but sometimes that is just how you have to roll. For today's post, I'm excited to play along with InstaFriday, hosted by Jeanett. I have followed her blog for a while and would suggest you do to. The lady does nice work… Continue reading InstaFriday
WIP Wednesday Awesome Girls
I like a good theme. This week the theme seems to be "Awesome Girls". I'm knitting an Awesome Girl for a friend on Ravelry. My current pair of in-progress socks I have named "Vigorous Violets" in honor of my niece (who unfortunately is back in the hospital). When I was working the other day, as… Continue reading WIP Wednesday Awesome Girls
Motivate Me Monday
Hello Monday! Would you believe I have been looking forward to this day for a week? Seriously. My to-do list is longer than I am tall with house stuff, work stuff, crafty stuff, and getting everyone back on a schedule following school vacation last week. I think we all have a bit of holiday hangover… Continue reading Motivate Me Monday
Digital Dust and Cookies
Oh the joys of getting a new space laid out just right. I'm working on the kinks and getting a few more items settled. I'm really trying not to overthink it, plus, it can all be changed! Anyway, this post is so I can make my claim for my blog on Bloglovin. That's my blog… Continue reading Digital Dust and Cookies
Obvious Issues
Here's the nitty-gritty: It's school vacation week. My brain is full. My knitting mojo is weak. It happens. I started working on a crochet washcloth just to have something to occupy my hands and do something creative. That seemed to have worked, because I'm now on cloth #5. This is my new "potato-chip" project, and… Continue reading Obvious Issues
FO Friday and Mojo Search
My FO this week is another amineko, this one is a birthday gift for my aunt/godmother. While I love working with a theme, I know how easy it is to get overwhelmed by that theme. When I was younger, I loved poison dart frogs. I still do actually, they are so interesting! Well, people ran… Continue reading FO Friday and Mojo Search
More stripey socks
I finished these socks March 29! I knit this pair on US1s, and I really like the resulting fabric. These socks have been worn a few times already. This is my third pair of socks, third pair knit two-at-a-time, third pair self-striping, second pair toe-up. I think I'm sensing a pattern. I love a good… Continue reading More stripey socks
On a limb
I thought that once March wrapped up, we might be able to start April off on the right foot. Well, I may as well have started April off with a visit to the Ministry of Silly Walks because holy chickens, it has been a whirlwind of activity and not all of it is great. You're… Continue reading On a limb
