For the first time in a long time, I am working on only one project! After I finished the Bone-A-Fide hat, I decided to just focus on my Ghost Knitter’s shawl for a while to see what kind of progress I could make. I’m finished with the striped part of the shawl and into the… Continue reading Wednesday WIP
The pattern for this hat is from the Jimmy Beans Wool Fright Club, and is the Bone-A-Fide Halloween set. (Ravelry link) The black yarn is Cascade Heritage sock, and the colorful yarn is self-striping yarn from Knitterly Things. The colorway name is Creepin It Real 🙂 Next up – matching mitts!
First, to all my blog friends – I’m sorry I am so far behind on reading everyone’s posts! Life got in the way a little, but I’m working on catching up 🙂 My projects are coming along pretty well! I’m about halfway done with my Bone-A-Fide hat. The background yarn is self-striping, and it’s fun… Continue reading Wednesday WIPs
I’m down to two projects at the moment, my Ghost Knitter’s shawl, and a start on my Bone-a-Fide hat. The Ghost Knitter’s Shawl (Ravelry link) is coming along. I still have doubts about the stripe colors, but am getting more used to them, I think. Or maybe I will wind up giving it to someone.… Continue reading Wednesday WIPS

It’s one of her spooky designs, having similar skull lace as last year’s Betwixt shawl. Here is the Etsy link for the pattern, and the Ravelry link. The yarn… Continue reading It’s Spooky Time!
The yarn for these socks is Urth Yarns Uneek sock in the Tigress colorway. The yarn comes in two pre-wound balls that would result in much longer socks, I got bored of it at the point you see here. And then my Mom absconded with the rest of the yarn! I didn’t use a pattern… Continue reading FO Friday: Tigress Socks!
Not a lot different going on in my knitting world, but making progress on all the things. My cardigan fronts are about an inch from the armhole bindoff and lapel increases. The second Elvis mitten is started but not very far along. And my tigress socks are started and ready to come along on my… Continue reading Wednesday WIPs
I started a pair of socks to take along on my upcoming trip to the Wisconsin Sheep and Wool Festival. Because socks are the idea travel project 🙂 The yarn is from Urth yarns, and is their Uneek Sock Tigress. Meanwhile, my own tiny tigress wonders what the neighbors are up to.
