The Black Hole socks are done! DH was having fun posing 🙂 I know these look like they are hanging off the front of his toes, but his feet really are that long! Anyway, whew! Glad those are done! Going to give myself a little break before the next pair of socks. Time for some… Continue reading Sock It To Me Monday
Well, the Buttoned Wrap Skirt did not go as planned. The fabric wasn’t right, and basically, this yarn did not work with this pattern. Which is fine! It’s a nice pattern, and eventually I will find the yarn that will work for it. Maybe even the suggested yarn – who knows? And for now, this… Continue reading Try Again

But there was a really good reason – a class I have been looking at for a while that has consistently sold out finally had a few slots left. So I had to jump on it! The class was… Continue reading There Was a Really Good Reason
I have absolutely got to get myself organized. Will I? Who can say?
It is coming along! Because it’s mostly straight knitting with a seed stitch border, it knits up pretty quickly. This skirt has a little shaping built into it, in the form of gusset at the front and back of each hip, and some shaping in the back as well. I just finished the first hip… Continue reading Wrap Skirt Progress
