This past weekend I went to Kansas City for Knitting in the Heartland with a few of my favorite people! You may recognize Alissa of Snakes and Cranes and Bonny of BonnyKnits – also included were non-blogging friends Ivy and Jess! Bonny lives in the area and very kindly picked me up from the airport… Continue reading Knitting In the Heartland!
Progress!
Tonight I did something I rarely do – mended some socks. These socks have been laying around waiting for me to either fix them or throw them away for months now. But it’s finally done!

My Fright Night socks are done! They turned out pretty well, and I’m thrilled to have them done in time for Halloween 🙂 The stitching is a little loose in the colorwork section, but I suspect that will even out once they are blocked.
The Arrowhead cardigan is coming along – I’m maybe halfway through the first pattern repeat. I’m slowing down on the Just Beachy shawl – I’m only a little way into clue 2, and clue 3 was released yesterday. And the socks are moving along slowly but surely. One more inch or so and then it’s… Continue reading Wednesday WIPs – Slowly but Surely
