It seems to me that everyone, everyone is knitting a super cool, gorgeous, must-wear it sweater. The Central Park Hoodie is very popular right now. Brigitte knit a CPH in a stunning pink. Margaux is almost done in a lovely grey Skye Tweed. Have I mentioned I love pink and grey? And Fearless Cara’s will [...]

Finally, a FO!
Posted in FOs, mitts on January 28, 2007 | 4 Comments »
This weekend has not been the most conducive to knitting. I spent yesterday with a couple of friends attending a diocesan congress on the Liturgy of the Word. It was very good, but it cut out some knitting time. Nevertheless, I do finally have a FO for 2007. Mitts for Karen in LL Swirl DK [...]
Sock Futures Rock!
Posted in Landscape Shawl, shawls, socks, STR on January 26, 2007 | 9 Comments »
After hearing about all the banking angst Blue Moon Fiber Arts went through, I decided to do a little shopping there, especially since I have never knit socks with Socks that Rock yarn. Shocking, I know. I was delighted to find a color scheme that reminded me of my new blueberry tea-for-one. Socks that Rock [...]
This and That
Posted in mitts, shawls on January 25, 2007 | 3 Comments »
I’ve been feeling rather antsy. It’s January 24th, and I don’t have a FO for 2007! The knitting has thwarted every attempt at completion, but I have a deadline on the horizon, so a FO must be born. Karen is arriving a week earlier than I thought she would be, so I need to finish [...]
More Plans than Progress
Posted in scarves, socks, victorian lace on January 23, 2007 | 3 Comments »
Due to errant, painful sinuses, a busy social schedule, and a misbehaving sock, I didn’t have a big weekend in terms of knitting progress. While the gingerbread cable sock sat in time-out until Sunday evening (all is back now on track with it), I did restart the ice cream sundae socks on smaller needles in [...]
The Good and the Bad
Posted in mitts, socks on January 19, 2007 | 9 Comments »
The good news is that I have one mitt done of the pair for Karen. I successfully adapted the pattern from chunky to DK weight yarn. The bad news: I had a “little” sock knitting mishap. Note to self: don’t knit with a headache. At least I found all 60 stitches after ripping a third [...]
Questions
Posted in Uncategorized on January 18, 2007 | 7 Comments »
While thinking of various projects and possibilities, I have come up with some questions for which I have no answers. As I puzzled and puzzed about who could help me, I thought to ask you, my readers, if any of you have the answers. So, here are my questions, and if you know an answer [...]
Victorian Lace Cast-on and a Sock’s Disgust
Posted in socks, victorian lace on January 17, 2007 | 4 Comments »
Last night I taught myself the crochet cast-on and started the first striped, wide border of the “Scarf with wide striped border” from Victorian Lace Today. I knit two repeats before I needed to switch to more mindless knitting so M and I could watch Inside Man on DVD (I really liked the movie BTW). [...]
The State of the Stash
Posted in stash on January 15, 2007 | 2 Comments »
Wendy and her friend L-B have christened 2007 the year of “Knitting from Stash.” They have set up some very flexible ground rules, and they have invited anyone who wishes to thin out their own stash to join them. I won’t officially join the Knitting from Stash movement, because unlike Wendy, who writes about a [...]
First WIPs of 2007
Posted in shawls, socks, WIPs on January 11, 2007 | 4 Comments »
2006 was my most knittingest year so far. I completed 14 projects, including one sweater. However, not everything I started in 2006 I finished, and I am carrying some things over. As I have a lot of knitting I want to do this year, I have been knitting furiously the last several days to turn [...]
