I finished a pair of socks last weekend and immediately wanted to cast on another pair! Rarely do I make socks for anyone other than myself. My husband has proven to be sock-worthy and I made two pairs of socks for my daughter, which she has outgrown. So I've let myself be distracted from my… Continue reading Sock Bug Bites Again

WIP Wednesday- Pollen edition
I have so many projects going on right now and I can't share any of them! It is a mix of custom requested projects, gift items, and test/samples - all under wraps for the time being. I really wanted to share something this week, so I started something new. (Who's surprised? No one who reads… Continue reading WIP Wednesday- Pollen edition
Yarn Along / WIP Wednesday – For the kids edition
Truth: It's been a decent week for starting projects. I am super pleased at how a few of them are progressing, so that's good. I am not so pleased with how a finger on my hook holding hand tends to cramp up / lock straight when I crochet an awful lot. Has this happened to… Continue reading Yarn Along / WIP Wednesday – For the kids edition
WIP Wednesday – a bit of everything
Instagram has captured what I have worked on this week. I finally cleared out my garden beds. After a not-so-successful garden last year (the weeds won), I left everything there over the winter.

I should be able to start the sleeves next week! Except for the first skein which was… Continue reading WIP Wednesday – Ombre Coffee

Today I started the washing machine and left the top open;… Continue reading Too much stuff – Yarn Along & WIP Wednesday
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!)
WIP Wednesday
I have had a lengthy love affair with Malabrigo. I think it was one of the first "nice" yarns I bought myself in my early knitting days. Over the years I have stashed it, admired it, coveted it, and yes, knit with it. Lately though I have just let it simmer in my stash. I… Continue reading WIP Wednesday
