I’ve got two projects currently active, my Melville and DH’s socks. DH’s socks are coming right along! I have turned the heels, so now it’s just straight up the legs until I run out of yarn. Melville too is coming along! I’m about 25 rows into the colorwork, and I am happy with how it… Continue reading Thursday ThWIPs
My two main projects right now are my Melville sweater and some socks for DH. Now that I finished my Astronomy socks, I am back on DH’s black socks. They are coming along pretty well. As usual, I’m not using a pattern, just my 2 at a time, toe up socks. Big news on my… Continue reading Wednesday WIPs
Still working on those two main projects – Melville and the Astronomy socks. Still working on the yoke of my Melville. Just a few more rows until I can divide! My Astronomy socks are almost done – just one more stripe then the ribbing with some more of the toe/heel yarn. These socks are way… Continue reading Thursday ThWIPs
For whatever reason, I just was not able to get my act together earlier this week. However, I do have some progress on my WIPS! It doesn’t really look like it, but Melville is moving along! Only about 10 more rows and I can divide off the sleeves. That will be nice, because this is… Continue reading Sadly No Alliteration WIPs

I love the colorwork pattern of the waves and the whale (though the pattern shows a baleen whale and… Continue reading Thursday ThWIPs
OMG – Powdermill is finally done! I started this cardigan 1/1/2023 as a KAL with Alissa of Alissa Makes, so it’s been in the works for a little over 2 years now. It spent part of that time in time-out while I worked on other stuff, but still. That’s a long time to work on… Continue reading Friday FO – Powdermill!
I have, in fact, Banged Out a Sweater! The pattern is Crowberry, from the MDK Moss Field Guide, by Helene Magnusson. Instead of the suggested yarn, I used Lettlopi. The main body color is Lapis, the lighter blue is Glacier Blue, and the vine colors are Garnet and Mimosa. I’m very happy with how the… Continue reading FO Friday: Crowberry Sweater!
My Crowberry (Bang Out a Sweater) is really moving along! But that’s not surprising given that it’s all I’m working on right now, and also – big yarn and big needles. I’ve gotten to creating the opening for the armholes started doing the yoke rounds. I have a few more rounds and the start of… Continue reading Crowberry Progress
Progress report on my Crowberry, aka the sweater I am * Banging Out. It’s coming along OK! I did have a little setback with it initially. I didn’t really do a proper gauge swatch and did not get gauge. So I did a little mathing and decided to just do the next size up. A… Continue reading Bang Out a Sweater!
