I just got back from a visit to my DH’s family in Pennsylvania. We drove there and back, which in hindsight was not a great plan – it took 2 days each way! We did get to see a few sights, and stopped to visit with Alissa of AlissaMakes and her DH, which was a… Continue reading Pennsylvania Visit
Other than the moon squares, I have one work in progress right now, which is an argyle cardigan. The back, which is plain gray, is done, so now I am starting on the fronts. It’s much slower going because I have a bunch of little bobbins of yarn I have to try to keep untangled,… Continue reading Thursday ThWIP
I got most of the embellishment done on the three moon yarn squares I’ve done so far! Mostly I just embroidered the full moon name and date on the moons and added a little extra fun. At first the wolf moon was just going to get the regular wolf patch sewn on. But then I… Continue reading Monday Moonday
Well, this was an extra-long break! There was a lot of life stuff going on this past few weeks, but hopefully it has calmed down, at least for a while. I’m going to try to post at least once a week going forward, and also keep up with reading everyone’s posts! Will be catching up… Continue reading Lunacy
Nothing finished this week, sadly. However, I am making progress on my two current projects. The first is my Peggy Sue cardigan, which I initially started last summer at some point, then set aside. On picking it back up a few weeks ago I found what I had done was way too big, so I… Continue reading Weekly WIPs
The title says it all – my Mothman socks are finished! The pattern is Above the Clouds by Annabeth Suchy, and the yarn is Chester Sock from DyeMad yarns. I have to admit I didn’t follow the sock pattern as such, just the colorwork, which I added in where I felt like adding it. The… Continue reading Mothman Socks Done!
Seafarer’s Balaclava is finished! The pattern is Seafarer’s Balaclava by Vanessa Ewing of Cape May Fibers, and the yarn is her Non-Superwash Aran in the Wuss Puss colorway. This is a quick knit, as you would expect with big yarn and big needles for an accessory. I really like this hood – it is warm… Continue reading Seafarer’s Balaclava
With the year’s first WIP done, I am focusing on two smaller projects right now – socks and a hood. My Mothman socks are coming along! The pattern is Above the Clouds by Annabeth Suchy, the main yarn is Chicago Mothman and the accent is Ruby, both from DyeMad Yarns. I am changing up the… Continue reading Wednesday WIPs: Head to Toe
Last week I posted my almost-finished mermaid sweater – this week it is done! The pattern is She Makes Waves (Ravelry link) by Natascha Tullock. I made a couple modifications to the original pattern – I did short sleeves for mine and added the little fish pattern band at the bottom. And all I did… Continue reading She Makes Waves
