The July project for the Boost Your Knitting pattern/technique club is for learning intarsia in the round. For non-knitters playing along at home, intarsia is a colorwork technique where you knit a pattern using one or more extra colors in just one area of the fabric, instead of carrying the other colors along the length… Continue reading BYK Socks Started
Well, it’s been a week of getting things done! So far this week I have finished my Valentine’s Day socks, which went pretty well. The yarn is from Gnome Acres, and the color is I Lurve Ewe, one of her Valetine/Galentine colors. I bought the yarn a couple of years ago and just now got… Continue reading Friday FOs!
Wishing you a soxy Valentine’s Day!
In the week since I last talked about how well my standing projects were going, I have had a rich array of distractions, some of which have joined my list of existing projects.

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
The soxual experiment you see before you is purely a travel project. I started them the night before I left for Florida, worked on them exclusively while there, and just finished them last night. So they went for a little longer than just my trip, but still, they were with me for two days of… Continue reading Yet Another Soxual Experiment
