Knitting Update
In which there is a flurry of five fibery finished objects. I haven’t been motivated to blog, but I haven’t stopped knitting. In fact, I have FIVE finished objects to show off. And bonus – they all used yarn that … Continue reading

And That’s When I Ran Out of Pins
Half a dozen from the end of the shawl. Well, I didn’t actually run out completely, just out of the pins in my pin storage box. I still had several unopened packets of T-pins. Thank goodness. I was just going … Continue reading
More knitting!
Heh. Two knitting posts in a row. I’m on a roll! After finishing my sweater, the only thing I still had on the needles was the Holbrook shawl. I’m on the border now, which makes it a bit less easy … Continue reading
