I may need to order this sweatershirt.
The Twelve Months till Christmas group over at Ravelry has started off with a bang. Wow. The last count was 238. Impressive to me as I thought for sure everyone would be tired of knitting/crafting for the holidays. Being ready for next year is the ticket.
With the snow that [...]

I picked up the book “Fitted Knits” by Stefanie Japel from the library today.
Thumbs Up! I’m off to amazon.com after posting this to have my very own copy.
Shelley has made mention of this book on her blog and is currently working on one of the sweaters…very pretty and very Shelley.

It feels like that to me, at least. My allegies and daffodils are springing up as per this time of year. I am looking forward to gardening this year, having purchased many different seeds for “dyeing” purposes only. Now to figure out which raised bed to plant these in.
I am in [...]

OMG…I am sooooo happy with the new Spring 07′ Knitty. I will say, hands down, it is better than the Spring 07′ IK issue. Please don’t be offended by my comment…we don’t have the same tastes, but there were a few knitters out there that agreed with me on the new IK format. [...]

Rusted Root.
Elizabeth over at A Mingled Yarn is very inspirational…besides all the great quotes, her fabulous knitting gets my fiber need moving along.
So….with snow, rain, sun, sleet, more rain, more sun, more sun and again, lots of rain, I will be working on this little sweater. I started it last night, taking advantage of Elizabeth’s [...]

I’ve had the new issue of Interweave Knits for a good week or more, sitting on my work table, just waiting for me to sit down and dig in to the new patterns.
Why has it taken me so long getting to this, usually, delightful task? At first glance, as I walked from my post [...]

What is with me? I have hardly picked up my knitting in the past two weeks, though this past weekend I would mindlessly go round and round on Ms. Marigold. Only 5 more inches to go till the rib. I’m so ready to move onto another project.
Tonight is Knit Night at Cutter’s [...]
