Recalculating

October 30, 2016November 1, 2016 quiteayarnblogLeave a comment

As it turns out, I didn’t need the mitten project along with me.  These socks are taking forever to knit.  In the general course of things, I don’t like wearing short socks.  Knee length is about where I like them. However, that’s a lot of knitting. A day or so into this past week’s work… Continue reading Recalculating

Travel Projects

October 24, 2016 quiteayarnblogLeave a comment

So a whirlwind week has gone by, but not a lot of knitting news. I am away from home on a work trip – one thing that is great about work trips is that there is often plenty of time to get some knitting done in the evenings.  Most of the places I go for work… Continue reading Travel Projects

Things are finally getting done!   Specifically, my long personal nightmare of a skirt is finally finished!  I’m dramatizing a little bit here, mostly for comic effect, but it seriously felt like I was knitting this darn thing for at least a year.  Now, when I check my project page on Ravelry, it turns out… Continue reading Finally!

Keep Knitting and Knitting and Knitting…

October 8, 2016 quiteayarnblogLeave a comment

That’s what this past week felt like.  Miles and miles of plain stockinette, as far as the eye can see.  The two projects I have going right now were each chosen when I was feeling like I really was not up to much complexity in my life.  But right now, they are both so very,… Continue reading Keep Knitting and Knitting and Knitting…

Skirting the Issue

October 2, 2016 quiteayarnblog1 Comment

So one of my knit projects right now is a skirt.  To get ready for this project, I bought a pattern – for the Simple Straight Skirt, by Churchmouse Yarns and Teas –  which I proceeded to then not really follow.  I also bought and read a book entirely on the topic of knitting various… Continue reading Skirting the Issue
