  • A Weekend of Knitting

    A Weekend of Knitting

    This was a weekend of knitting.  I added some new yarn to my stash, finished a baby blanket that had been a lot of work, and after finishing a weekend’s worth of grad school work I have cast on another project.  The devil dreams on an idle horse, so I need to keep knitting to…

    Celtic Myths Shawl is DONE

    This has been a project over two years in the making and boy am I happy to be done with this thing. The only thing I have on the needles now is a Gamekeeper Scarf, so I’m going to return back to knitting that and see if I can get through it.  KnitCompanion, my favorite…

  • A Little Update

    I’m back home again and man does it feel good.  I’ve also gotten some more crafting done, which has been good.  But mostly I’ve been focusing on Wiggly and getting her happy.  She’s been all over the place and seems to have really missed her friend, as have I.  I took her out yesterday and…

    Little Late: A Squirrel Cloth

    I can’t believe I never shared this one with you.  I can’t wait to decide which of my squirrel friends gets this baby for Christmas.  It was super fun, since it was knit on the diagonal.  I loved working on it because of the squirrel. I’m super excited to have another cloth done.  I’m currently…

    Celtic Myths

    I have pulled out the beast yet again. I have been working hard on this (or hardly working, I should say) project for roughly 2 years.  I’m determined to finish it by Christmas.  My best friend Ashley wanted a shawl to use as a nursing cover for her baby girl and I decided to make…

  • Just Off the Needles:  Snowman Cloth

    Just Off the Needles: Snowman Cloth

    Check the project out on Ravelry. Lately I’ve been in love with things that are on the diagonal.  The last scarf was on the diagonal, in a sense.  I’ve made over 20 of the Grandma’s Favorite Cloth, so this is a variation with a snowman in the middle.  Of course, I had to cast this…
