My socks and skirt and progressing. There’s not much to show – they look mostly the same, there’s just more of them now. The skirt actually has a little bit of shaping to it, but its not very visible. So since there’s not much to talk about with the current WIPs, what’s next? I finally… Continue reading No FO
Making some progress on DH’s Black Hole socks, but not a lot since last week. I got no knitting done this evening, and it’s not looking great for tomorrow either. This afternoon I got an idea about how to move around some furniture (and get rid of some of a couple pieces) to solve some… Continue reading Sock It To Me Monday
Last month I said no more VK Lives for a couple of months. Well, I lied. But there was a really good reason – a class I have been looking at for a while that has consistently sold out finally had a few slots left. So I had to jump on it! The class was… Continue reading There Was a Really Good Reason

This skirt has a little shaping built into it, in the form of gusset at the front and back of each hip, and some shaping in the back as well. I just finished the first hip… Continue reading Wrap Skirt Progress

I’d say… Continue reading Sock It To Me Monday: Black Holes Colliding
For my next project, I am going back to the plan! I’m making the Buttoned Wrap Skirt from Churchmouse Yarns & Teas, using some Debbie Bliss Milano from my stash. I did a swatch last night, and the yarn is slightly off of gauge. The pattern calls for a slightly heavier yarn than this, but… Continue reading What’s Next?
Just being a glamorous mermaid and stuff. You know – NBD 🙂
The socks continue. There’s a bit more of them than there was the last time I posted about them, though not as much as I had hoped there would be. I was focusing on a different project this weekend, which I will post more about tomorrow! Are you working on any socks? If so, how… Continue reading Sock It To Me Monday: Black Hole Socks Continue
Shelley Summer Top is done! The color on this is terrible – another terrible indoor late night photo, but it’s done! The color is more true in this previous photo. The pattern is Shelley Summer Top by Nancy Ricci, and the yarn I used is Bamboo Pop in the Brilliant Blues colorway. It was an… Continue reading Friday FO!
