A Sheep, A Shark, and a Camping Trip

July 12, 2018July 12, 2018 quiteayarnblog8 Comments

As I have mentioned several times before, I am kind of easily distracted.  It takes nothing more than a tantalizing project or yarn to pull me completely off of a carefully thought-out and solid knitting plan. Up until recently, I had such a plan.  I am going to finish Glenesk and Call of the Siren… Continue reading A Sheep, A Shark, and a Camping Trip

Progress Report – Sirens and Entrelac

June 17, 2018 quiteayarnblog2 Comments

I have a bit of progress to report on both the Call of the Sirens and the entrelac kerchief, so that’s exciting.  Glad to be moving forward! On Call of the Sirens, I got back to the point where I made the decision to rip back and then went into clue 2 with no problems. … Continue reading Progress Report – Sirens and Entrelac

The Knit Aquatic

June 14, 2018June 14, 2018 quiteayarnblog6 Comments

Tonight I watched The Shape of Water while re-knitting my Call of the Siren, so now I am feeling very aquatic and weird 🙂 Edgar and Lazlo assisted, as you can see here. The Shape of Water, if you aren’t familiar with it, is a modern retelling of the Revenge of the Creature, which is a… Continue reading The Knit Aquatic

Sirens to the Frog Pond

June 7, 2018June 7, 2018 quiteayarnblog8 Comments

Since I last wrote about my latest efforts in the field of knitting cryptology, I actually finished clue 1 of my Call of the Siren shawl! It was about that time I noticed a problem There’s a pretty noticeable color shift about one and a half pattern repeats before the end of the section.  Maybe… Continue reading Sirens to the Frog Pond

Coming Attractions!

March 23, 2018 quiteayarnblog4 Comments

This is one of those times when I totally get how people have “startitis.” My current knitting is exactly the same as the last several times I wrote, and I’m boring myself even thinking about what to say about it right now. So instead of telling you even more about the things I am continuing… Continue reading Coming Attractions!
