Bullet Journal Train

December 20, 2018 quiteayarnblog8 Comments

As I mentioned in an earlier post, I signed up for Kate Davies latest pattern club, which somehow or the other incorporates bullet journaling. Also, lately a lot of the knitting sights seem to be all about bullet journaling – Mason Dixon sells a journal and recently published several articles about it. Webs is selling… Continue reading Bullet Journal Train

December 16, 2018 quiteayarnblog8 Comments

This Q & A is stolen borrowed from Karen at  NothingButKnit, as ususal 🙂  Have you made holiday decorations for your home? What have you made? Do you have a tradition of making something every year? Did you craft for holidays when you were a child? Do you have a memory of something you made? Do… Continue reading Holiday Q&A

Yay! Knitting Again!

December 13, 2018 quiteayarnblog3 Comments

Well, all is right with the world again!  In spite of having a couple stops to make on the way home and a few chores to do once we got home, I still got some knitting in.  It’s amazing how much you can get done in one episode of Midsomer Murders – around an inch… Continue reading Yay!

A Day with No Knitting

December 12, 2018December 12, 2018 quiteayarnblog12 Comments

Into each life, a few days with no knitting must fall.  Sadly, today was one of those days.   I tried to knit.  My Find Your Fade shawl came to work with me for some sneaky lunchtime knitting, but issues kept coming up, and I never got to touch it.   This evening was filled with grocery… Continue reading A Day with No Knitting

To Goal or Not to Goal

December 9, 2018 quiteayarnblog11 Comments

That is the question.   Earlier today I was looking over my projects from the year, and comparing them to the goals I set for myself for 2018.  I will be writing up a final reckoning a little later this month, but the short answer is – I did hit most of them, but missed on… Continue reading To Goal or Not to Goal

Document, Document, Document

December 6, 2018 quiteayarnblog10 Comments

For some reason, documentation of knitting projects is suddenly a thing.  Or possibly it has always been a thing, and I just didn’t notice. Whichever, how you plan your knitting and document your projects while they are in progress and after they are done is currently a big deal.   Ravelry is, of course, one of… Continue reading Document, Document, Document

All Shook Up

November 30, 2018December 1, 2018 quiteayarnblog11 Comments

In case you missed it, Anchorage (where I live) got hit with a 7.2 earthquake today at 8:29 this morning. We have been also getting aftershocks of varying magnitudes all day long – some of them pretty strong ones.  For the curious, you can check out the Alaska Earthquake observatory website here. Click on the… Continue reading All Shook Up

Busy Day

November 26, 2018 quiteayarnblog4 Comments

In spite of having a day off, I got very little knitting done.  I did get some Christmas prep done, and also a few chores, so that was all good.  Clearing the deck for later this week!   But I have passed a milestone on Ixchel – the 2nd sleeve is done!  I did decide to… Continue reading Busy Day
