I got done knitting my Perfect Blend shawl Thursday night, which was a relief – it’s another one of those project that felt like it took forever, though objectively it wasn’t that long. It was waiting in hibernation for a few months, but that’s not quite the same thing as working on it for all… Continue reading Perfect Blend Shawl is Done!
I’m halfway through Clue 3 of my Perfect Blend MKAL, at which point it will be halfway done! Clue 3 is continuing on the theme from clue 2 of alternating an interesting stitch pattern section with a garter stitch section.

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

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
