Termination Dust

September 29, 2019 quiteayarnblog16 Comments

We have a couple signs that fall is here in Alaska – it gets colder, the leaves turn, the fireweed flowers finish blooming, and we get termination dust on the mountains. It’s called that because it’s the termination of summer. For the summer, we don’t have snow on the peaks we can see in Anchorage… Continue reading Termination Dust

A Few Brioches More

September 28, 2019 quiteayarnblog8 Comments

Not much to report on the knitting front. We had a lot of little errands to run and things to do today, so did not get as much knitting done as I wanted to. Hopefully tomorrow will be a quiet, knit-filled day! What I did get done is a few more repeats on the Falling… Continue reading A Few Brioches More

Perfect Blend: An Odyssey

September 27, 2019September 27, 2019 quiteayarnblog12 Comments

The last time I mentioned my Perfect Blend shawl here was late July, but it hasn’t been hibernating. I took it to work and have been doing a bit here and a bit there as I have a minute over lunch. Although it hasn’t been long stretches of time all together, since I started I’ve… Continue reading Perfect Blend: An Odyssey

Skullduggery

September 25, 2019September 24, 2019 quiteayarnblog6 Comments

Earlier this month, I wrote about my Mom and I doing a ceramics event to paint sugar skull mugs. Last Friday I got the call that they were fired and ready to be picked up, which was much earlier than we were told they would be ready. So YAY for early pickup! Mine (the one… Continue reading Skullduggery

September 24, 2019 quiteayarnblog9 Comments

My tea of the month from Harney and Sons got here over the weekend, on top of all the other tea that has recently arrived. Fortunately since our weather has started cooling down pretty significantly, we have been hammering the hot beverages pretty hard, so it is actually welcome at this point. This month’s selections… Continue reading Tuesday Tea Day: OMG More Tea

Sock It To Me Monday

September 23, 2019 quiteayarnblog4 Comments

These are the Soft Pretzel socks from Knitters Brewing Company, and the yarn is their Sock-aholic Old No. 8 in Hoppiness. Not a lot to report with these guys – I’m about halfway up the foot at this point – close to where the gusset starts. Having just done this pattern, it is going pretty… Continue reading Sock It To Me Monday

Brioche Again

September 22, 2019 quiteayarnblog14 Comments

Not much to report today. Got some cleaning done, but not a lot. Watched some old Good Eats episodes and then a movie this evening. I did make some good progress on the brioche scarf! One nice thing about this project is that being a scarf it’s long enough to show you the light and… Continue reading Brioche Again

Pumpkin Queen

September 21, 2019 quiteayarnblog12 Comments

We got a box from Webs! What is this stuff? It’s for making this… So I’m not the only Halloween fan in the house, I guess? Hope your weekend is the fun kind of crazy too!
