It's Wednesday again, time for WIP Wednesday & Yarn Along! I finished up my Stripe Study (yay!) so you'll have to wait until Friday for that report. I have other secret projects I'm working on and in the "downtime" until the next Camp Loopy project starts (tomorrow! I have to get my yarn wound!) I… Continue reading New Project, New Book

Socks and a Rattle – FO Friday!
When I think of the projects I have to share this week I mostly think, FINALLY - it's about time! My Jelly Bean socks, were started in August 2012 as part of a KAL! The delay in finishing these is due purely to my own distractions. The yarn is Green Mountain Spinnery Sock Art -… Continue reading Socks and a Rattle – FO Friday!
Lots to Share!
I'm very excited to link up with WIP Wednesday & Yarn Along this week, look at that pile! Sharp Objects by Gillian Flynn, is very good and I am half-way through it. I want to read Gone Girl, but currently the library has it on a 7 day loan status, something I may have been… Continue reading Lots to Share!
WIP Wednesday & Yarn Along
My socks are making very good progress! I have turned both heels and one sock has the gusset decreases finished. The deadline for these, for Camp Loopy purposes, is July 1 and I think I just might make it! While working on these I am remembering why I love knitting socks so much and it… Continue reading WIP Wednesday & Yarn Along
It’s My Birthday
Happy Birthday to me, happy Thursday to you! Today is the first day all week where we have not had any plans set, so it is especially nice to take our time, work on a few projects, play outside and relax. I'm still recovering from the brain mush. I've skipped WIP Wednesday this week and… Continue reading It’s My Birthday
WIP Wednesday (Post #1001!)
I noticed when I logged in this morning that this is post #1001! Keeping things moving, here is what I have been working on this week. I started a pair of Carousel socks. They have been on my mind for a while and they qualify for a Ravelry sock group's March challenge of "Unusual Construction". … Continue reading WIP Wednesday (Post #1001!)
Happy Feet – a FO post
One of the items I finished last week was a pair of Yoga Socks for me! At last year's Rhinebeck, I found a great little kit at Solitude Wool. I really enjoyed their booth for the options of breed-specific yarns and the range of colors. The Yoga Socks kit contained two coordinating yarns for the… Continue reading Happy Feet – a FO post
So this was Christmas…
Whoosh. Another Christmas has come and gone - it was a whirlwind (as always) and went by way to fast (as always) but was a good time & a success! This year we were low key on the side of decorations due to the Little Nutmeg being rather full of grabby hands. We had a… Continue reading So this was Christmas…
Weathered
Sandy has come and gone. She destroyed a lot of trees in my town and left a lot of people in the dark for most of the week. It could always be worse and my heart just breaks for the people in New York City and along the Jersey Shore. Connecticut took a beating, no… Continue reading Weathered
In threes
You know how it goes - there seems to be a bit of blogging "meh" going about. I've got it too. I want to blog, but have lost some of the energy for it. Could be life in general, could be work (which involves writing blog posts for others), could be house stuff, could be… Continue reading In threes
