Yes, I really do wear them all

(What? New blog posts two days in a row? This hasn't happened in a long time!) Awhile ago, Lolly asked about how we wear the things we knit. Sure, we show off pictures of the finished projects, draped nicely over a table or something, but it's always fun to see pictures of those finished projects…

socks make everything better

Or at least, that's the idea. I was planning to hold off until Project Spectrum begins (on Feb. 1st) to start my next pair of socks, but decided last night that I needed a little sock-therapy. Yesterday was a bit of a cruddy day; I wound up having to drop my Mathematical Foundations of AI…

And now we have sleeves…

...or at least, parts of them. My mom asked me the other day whether she had sleeves yet, so I figured I ought to post a picture of my progress on them so she can see where they stand. I've knit 59 rows so far (recording this number here, given my notoreity for forgetting where…

Mom’s Rogue: Now, with hood!

After finishing my Ganomy hat, I made a little promise to myself, to finish the hood of my mother's Rogue sweater before starting any other projects. I made good on my promise, but goodness gracious, I'd forgotten about how that hood goes on for-freaking-ever! When I knit my own, I'd done over 1/3 of it,…

green, green, green

I finished the Lemongrass socks yesterday afternoon, and had my husband take some pictures of them for me this evening: Here they are on my…

fun with colors!

As those of you who've been reading awhile might've noticed, I've apparently got a bit of a blog-crush on Lolly, and last year, I happily followed her into a number of very rewarding knitalongs, and of course, participated in Socktoberfest. And now it's time for Project Spectrum, round 2, and of course I'm joining in…

Red Scarf, completed

I've been in a bit of a low place the past few days. Just the sort of seasonal depression I've battled with for quite a long time. So it's been a bit tough to get myself working on the various projects I've got going on, and I've not been particularly up to blog-reading, writing, or…

Happy New Year!

Ok, so I'm a few days late with that one. But I've been taking a bit of a blog-break (both here and elsewhere) while I'm on vacation, mostly because I feel a bit rude taking time out of what little I have for visiting family to sit and write blog posts. But, speaking of family,…
