The Haunted socks are moving along. I have maybe an inch and a half to do on the feet, then the heels, then on up the legs until I run out of yarn or get bored with them 🙂 Even though they did not turn out to be self-striping, I do like the slanted stripe/color… Continue reading Sock It To Me Monday
I believe I mentioned having gone a little crazy with the Halloween yarn. Well, a lot of that has been coming in finally, making for some pretty happy mail days 🙂 This is a mini set from Ms. Monster Creations that came with the nifty little bag from the Ginger Ewe. I really liked this… Continue reading Stash Enhancement Saturday
October 1st I’m going to put aside any regular projects I have going and just work on spooky knits. I have a little bit of yarn winding to do this weekend… I should be able to get my slippers done this weekend, but the skirt is going to go on hold for a little while.… Continue reading Winding and Winding
Shortly after I started knitting my Buttoned Wrap Skirt this past weekend, I psyched myself into a random yarn panic. I tend to do this to myself sometimes, especially when the yarn I’m using is no longer obtainable.

Shark… Continue reading Shark Week!
A couple weeks ago, I saw this yarn from Old Crow ArtYarns on Etsy: I love What We Do In the Shadows, and it’s pretty yarn, so I bought it. Then when it showed up, I thought it would be cool to use for something with a bat pattern. So I found this cowl pattern… Continue reading Cool Idea Sadly Gone Wrong
I know I have posted about my yarn for this sweater before, but I’m pretty jazzed about it, so I’m posting again. The main yarn is going to be this Knit Picks Galileo in the Nebula colorway – it is a really deep plum color, which as it turns out is hard to photograph indoors… Continue reading Arachne KAL Yarn and Resources
Last night DH and I got our taxes done. (We have the wildest Friday nights!) We have a tax preparer we have gone to for the last couple years – she does a great job and is very pleasant as well. Well, this year she is pregnant! Very much so – she is due in… Continue reading Bam! Booties
