Sorry I haven't posted in a while - I keep getting caught up in life and don't have time (or forget!) to pop in here and post! If you would please send some kitty mojo to my poor 17-year-old furbaby Harpo, I'd greatly appreciate it - we discovered that he has a growth in his belly… Continue reading WiP Wednesday

WiP Wednesday
I've been knitting away at all kinds of things, mostly Christmas presents, so I sadly can't show you most of my WiPs or recent FOs. Now that I finished up my sock pattern and published it (see here!), I have a new design on paper and on the needles - this time for a shawl. But… Continue reading WiP Wednesday

The 'On Your Way to the Masters' day on Wednesday was fantastic. … Continue reading Master Knitter Monday #16: TKGA Wrap-Up

Socks!
I finally finished the pair of socks I had on the needles for my son! They had been hibernating for so long, I wasn't sure they'd still fit him (he's growing so fast!) but there's still an inch or so of room at the end of these, so they should last him for a little… Continue reading Socks!
WiP Wednesday
Sorry I haven't posted in almost 2 weeks! My grandmother passed away on the 5th, and we drove up to Michigan for the funeral this last weekend, so I've been swamped and the blog was the last thing on my mind during this whole time. I'm sure you all understand. Our drive to and from Michigan… Continue reading WiP Wednesday
