I decided to leave the body on scrap yarn for a while and finish off the sleeves, then go back and finish the body. The first sleeve is going fine – just plain stockinette, so it’s sailing along. I plan to keep trying it on though, to make sure the forearm webbing goes where I… Continue reading Arachne Progress
I’m getting ready for Sarah at mildlygranola‘s Rainbow sock KAL next month by fishing around in my stash for skeins that will do. I don’t have any self-striping rainbow, but I do have some rainbow variegated sock yarns. The top skein is Radioactive Rainbow from Knitted Wit. I have seen it knitted up, and it… Continue reading Rainbow Sock Choices
I had so much fun playing around and learning on Saturday that I spent Sunday afternoon messing around with more mini-shawl shapes. I didn’t use any patterns, just cast on and figured out what I needed to do to make certain shaping things happen. It was so much fun that now I’m wondering if I… Continue reading Mini-Shawl Mania!

It sold out pretty quickly, and I missed out on several classes I wanted to take while I was fumbling with my calendar to see if there were any weekdays I would be able to take off. However, I did manage to snag two classes… Continue reading Virtual VK Live!

I’m a couple rows past sleeve separation! The body is on hold for a little while so I can get the neckband done. I am just loving this sweater so far! If you are interested in making your own Arachne, join our KAL! We are taking our time with it, so there’s plenty of time… Continue reading Arachne Update
I recently decided it was time to go through my stash. It has been getting a little out of hand lately. I got a start Sunday afternoon – I excluded all the cats from our room, spread out an old sheet, and dumped everything out from a couple of bins. It took an hour or… Continue reading Organizing with “Helpers”
