Getting there! The heels are turned, and starting up the legs. I’m hoping these will be done by Halloween, but if not I’m not going to stress. I do have off for part of this week and am planning on getting a lot of knitting done, but we’ll see how that goes 🙂 If you… Continue reading Sock It To Me Monday
Up in the sky! What is it? Some dark, mysterious, yet sexy creature of the night! No, not that. Closer! What could it be? This. Coming soon, to a knitting blog near you!
When I wrote about (Ravelry link) this project a few weeks ago, several people indicated they would be interested in a KAL. That would definitely be a way to bring the fun back into this weird, terrible year. So who’s in? If you are interested in doing a KAL, then please answer me these questions… Continue reading 2020 Dumpster Fire KAL

It has strand of black fuzz and a strand of subtle sparkle spun into it that gives it a really lovely effect 🙂 The silver yarn is left over from my Arachne… Continue reading Yet Another Cowl
My Bat! cowl is done 🙂 The yarn is DK weight from Old Crow ArtYarn in the What We Do In The Shadows colorway. The cowl isn’t done to a pattern. The little bats are a bobble and some light cabling. I lifted the motif from the (Ravelry link) Fangtastic sock pattern and just placed… Continue reading Friday FO: Bat Cowl
My bat cowl is coming along pretty well! I’m actually binding off the lower edge right now, but it may need more finishing. I tried a couple different edge treatments, and none of them was great. The last thing I tried is an i-cord bindoff with a different but coordinating purple yarn that looks halfway… Continue reading Wednesday WIP: Going Batty
