Arachne Update
I haven’t gotten a huge amount done since the last update – there’s a few more rows left until I separate out the sleeves, then I hope to move a bit quicker!

Arachne Update
Well, I have made some progress on my Arachne this week, and finally remembered to take some pictures outside in the daylight! I have been focusing on it in the evenings, mostly because there is a storm of other projects coming up and I wanted to get a good start. I am trying something a… Continue reading Arachne Update

Crafting Confession
I got this card in a yarn shipment today. It made me smile a bit, but got me thinking – what would my crafting confession be? While I was thinking about that, I sat down to work on my Niazuma. Now, the couple days I’ve been working on it, it has seemed kind of big… Continue reading Crafting Confession

What I finally decided on was Arachne by Andi Satterlund – part of her Spooky collection from last Halloween. I have some lovely purple yarn… Continue reading Addendum to The Plan
Progress on Both Fronts
Dockside is moving right along! One of the nifty features of the fronts and the sleeves is that the ribbing doesn’t end in a straight line. On the fronts the line of the ribbing changing to stockinette forms angles in to the center. There is a similar slant on the sleeves. It’s not a lot… Continue reading Progress on Both Fronts
