Another Wednesday! And I have a cold. 🙁 But, I'm taking it easy today (as easy as a mother of 2 boys can!) and am getting quite a bit of knitting done today. Here's my progress on my Camp Loopy Catkin so far: The colors are a bit off - they're not quite as orange-tinged… Continue reading WiP Wednesday

I stayed up past midnight last night so I could cast on right away for my Camp Loopy project! I've gotten a few rows done on it so far today, and hopefully I'll have a good chunk of knitting time tonight to work on it.

I have lots on the needles now - LOTS! I'm on a roll cranking out the MK swatches, but I'll save those to show you on Monday. I also have 3 half-pairs of socks that need mates soon (before the boys have another growth spurt!), but I've put those on hold for the time being -… Continue reading WiP Wednesday

I've included instructions for 3 different sizes (child, women, men) - as well as 2 different gauges for the child size. There are also some extra instructions for customizing… Continue reading William’s Socks – Expanded

I'm finally knitting up my chili pepper yarn (well, it's called 'Ring of Fire', but I think of it as chili peppers since the gift package came with chili pepper stitch markers and a… Continue reading WiP Wednesday
Three pairs of socks
You know how I said last Monday that I'd have a FO post for my shawl soon? And maybe have some Master Knitter swatches to show you? Well, I didn't bank on getting super sick later that day. Strep throat, ear infection, sinus infection, and now a major cough. I'm on the mend now, but for a few… Continue reading Three pairs of socks

So, it's been a little while since I blogged last! I haven't gotten my Master Knitter package back in the mail yet, but I am waiting very patiently to find out my results. :-)I haven't finished much lately - a pair of socks, a charity washcloth, and something else that I'll blog about later. (shhh,… Continue reading Making progress…
