Since last week, I have made scant progress on my eternal Colorblock sweater, but am making good progress on my annual Halloween socks! Specifically, this year’s socks are Fangtastic by Wendy Gaal, and the yarn is a kit from Knitter’s Brewing Company. My Mom gave it to me as a Christmas present last year, and I… Continue reading Batty For Halloween
Well, once again a week with a little progress! I am positively giddy from things getting done! No, not my Colorblock Top of many previous posts fame. I genuinely do not know what is taking me so long with this thing. It is just straight, plain stockinette, and a sleeveless shell at that! The slubs… Continue reading Wednesday WIP Report
This week’s Knitter’s Bookshelf entry comes to us from Sweden via Interweave press. Pop Knitting: Bold Motifs Using Color & Stitch by Britt-Marie Christoffersson is an exciting and inspirational book, full of truly different bold, graphic stitch patterns and motifs. It is a slightly older book – published in Sweden in 2009 and the translation… Continue reading Knitter’s Bookshelf: Pop Knitting

The socks fit me, and I have a little yarn left – I’m wondering what to… Continue reading At Long Last, Something is Finished!

The third and final clue was just sent out today – I’m about halfway through the first clue. Here’s what it looks like so far… … Continue reading Wednesday WIPs
Well, it’s been a kind of a boring week, knitting-wise. As far as everything else, it was a crazy one, so maybe it all balances out! What I mainly did this week was wait. The first thing I’m waiting for is to start the Hunting Sasquatch sock MKAL! By the time the first clue was… Continue reading A Week of Waiting
My big focus this week was on getting caught up with my Geek-Along squares. Here is what I’ve gotten done: The orange and green one in the upper left is Aquaman, and then going clockwise are Black Panther, Mas y Menos, Red Tornado, and Cyborg. And now I’m all caught up again! I will be… Continue reading A Little More Geekery
I don’t know about you, but I spent a good portion of my long Labor Day weekend knitting! Got a little more done on my Colorblock Top. I know this looks a lot like the last time I posted this project. It feels like that too 🙂 But progress is happening, just not as quickly… Continue reading Such a Knitty Weekend!
