Lifelong yarnaholic and craft junkie. I'm on a quest to learn all I can about knitting, and I plan to take you with me!
Eh
The new doorway curtains are done! Did my devil-may-care pattern-less method work? Eh. Sort of. Original lace curtains. Problems – no heat retention, easily see-through at night. New knitted curtains. Solved: keep out the cold better, not see-through at night. Sounds good, right? Problems – not quite wide enough. Substantially too long. Actually, they were… Continue reading Eh
Wednesday WIPs
Still just plugging away at the same two projects, but making progress! I’m about halfway done with the second curtain, and ready to be all the way done 🙂 Hopefully this week. The first Mom mitten is underway, but these will certainly not be finished by this weekend. So I will have to either be… Continue reading Wednesday WIPs
House Progress
There’s actually been a LOT of progress on our new house since I last wrote about it, but I’m waiting for areas to be “finished” to talk about them. But there’s one room I can’t wait on – my office!

I was debating free-forming the “pattern” on the second one, but decided to try to make it more or less match the first one. So #1 won’t… Continue reading Thursday ThWIPs

I really only have the cast one and a little bit of the cuff done. So a bit more to do on these… Continue reading Thursday ThWIPs
Halloween FO – Cats Sweater Done!
My Halloween Cats sweater is done! The pattern is Fall Favorites by Meghan Reagan (Ravelry link). This isn’t the first time I have knit this sweater – last year I did the pumpkin version. Like last time, I KALed with Alissa of Snakes & Cranes and Sarah of mildlygranola. The yarn I used is Cascade… Continue reading Halloween FO – Cats Sweater Done!
There and Back, Yet Again
This week I had a work trip back to Anchorage. I did get some knitting time in, but mostly during travel time there and back again. But tomorrow I will be settled back in, and have knitting and house news to share. Also tomorrow – catch up on everyone’s blogs!
