Poppins and Plans

January 6, 2016 Becca3 Comments

I am this close --><-- to having my current sample knitting project finished so that has had all my focus for my knitting time this week.

Pieces in Progress

October 28, 2015 BeccaLeave a comment

Projects in pieces, appropriate for a work-in-progress Wednesday post right? Shown here are the front and back sides of the Watercolor Pillow I'm making for the Sophomore year assignments of Loopy Academy. I am hoping it all works out okay, because man, my colorwork heart is a bit wonky. I should have given a lot more slack… Continue reading Pieces in Progress

New Books and a WIP Confession

October 21, 2015 Becca3 Comments

  I forgot to include the two books I picked up at Rhinebeck in my earlier post! These were on my mental shopping list and I am enjoying them immensely. Unexpected Cables is by Heather Zoppetti and impresses me more as I stop just flipping through the pages and really take a look at her… Continue reading New Books and a WIP Confession

As I mentioned in my last post, I have a number of works in progress. They all suit a current attention span or mood. Do I feel like paying attention to the pattern?

Work has picked up, the kids were busy with assorted camps, and most recently we took a family trip to a local orchard sunflower maze, celebrated birthdays and now we're recovering from some sort of summer bug. The little knitting I have… Continue reading Rectangles Slightly Askew

August 12, 2015 Becca6 Comments

I have several projects that suitable to share this week. Enough work has been done on each that they are out of the blob phase. I was surprised when I pulled these projects together to see that they all sort of go together color-wise, and not one of the colors is blue!

This week I pulled out the Rainbow Blanket for my daughter to work another color stripe and then some. Might as well work on a blanket while the air conditioner is running right? I've also got my yarn ready for two more projects! I'm in a sweet spot right now - the next Camp Loopy… Continue reading WIP Wednesday Something Old Something New
