You know how sometimes you need a change? I need a change.
I mean, I’m almost there … with this moving to Nashville, starting a new grad program thing. But I want something sooner, too.
Maybe I just need a new knitting project.
baby sock of doooom, originally uploaded by katie:m.
I’m back in the homeland for a while, so as I attempt to relax and write (in that order) in the Great Northwest (TM), posting might be a bit sporadic. Kind of like my progress on the baby sock of dooooom and surprisingly high yardage.
The weekend was [...]
… by kidsilk haze. I can’t get enough.
Although I already have a shawl in progress, I couldn’t resist the siren song of the kidsilk. It’s just so shiny and pretty. For some reason — having to do with VLT, I suspect — I bought four balls of candy girl (606) a couple of years ago. [...]
According to flickr, I finished this on April 2, 2009. This version did not self-destruct; indeed, it even made it all the way to Switzerland in one piece. Notice the lack of glass beads.
No new knitting around here, hence the dive into the archives. Things are looking up, though, as the kindess of professors is [...]
I’m keeping on with the force. These shawls are so addictive.
So far, I’ve just got some yummy Jitterbug in Vincent’s Apron, size US9/5.5mm needles, and a dream. A dream of stockinette and a kicky edging pattern. As of yet unknown.
Blogging is proving to be a nice break from writing … we’ll see how I keep [...]
1. The bandit (minus Smokey, unfortunately) is finished. All the details here.
2. Work, work, work. It’s going.
3. Luckily, I still have time for knitting. And Cary Grant.
More baby knits, brought to you by my tired brain.
I finished this up a couple of weeks ago and have yet to add it to my Ravelry projects. Oh well.
It’s the lovely lil’ devil hat in some basic Paton’s Classic Merino that has been in the stash practically since I started knitting. Some rather punk-rock [...]
I’m going to copy the Yarn Harlot and do a random Wednesday on Tuesday. Just to mix things up.
1. Work sucks. Baby socks are cute. I would like more baby socks in my life.
2. About that work: I think I’m going to have to cut some draft pages. This is hard, as they were very [...]
Two knots in one skein? Gob Bluth says: “C’mon!“
That said, the silk yarn is lovely and knitting up nicely. As a springtime bandit. I’ll detail my battle with the caprice of hand-painted yarn when I have a bit more time. Deadlines are coming up and things are busy, busy, busy here at chez furball.
Mission before [...]
