This was an absolutely crazy week in a lot of ways, yet I still managed to make at least a little progress on all my WIPs! First, Glenesk is moving along nicely. I have added in the steek* stitches for the sleeves and started decreasing for the V-neck, so am maybe 3/4 of the way… Continue reading Weekly WIP Report
It’s been quite a week, and the nuttiness is not over yet! However, I have been able to make a little progress in my latest cryptid knitalong – Nessie! Here is the front of the first sock.

I’m thinking about doing long tassels alternating the aqua and pink on each end, and then doing that kind of macrame knotting with… Continue reading Done! (mostly)
45 repeats done – 7 more to go! In other news, our Poirot-a-thon continues. I found out that you can add on a subscription to Acorn TV to an Amazon account, which lets you watch pretty much all the British murder mysteries you could possibly ever want. We decided to just start at random, so… Continue reading Twinkling Along
