I know, both of you are saying, “What? What did I do? I didn’t do anything!”. Well, yes, you did, even though it was in the subtlest of ways. Just as Helen subtly influenced me into this knitting addiction, the spinners of this group have enticed me into trying out, at least at […]

OK– the sweater is done. I just have to snip the ends of straggling yarn off one sleeve, wash and block it, and sew the buttons on now. Woo-hoo! It’s a good thing too, as my FIL will be coming this week, and this way, I can send it to my cousin/niece Amelia. I […]

Last night, before going to bed, I thought I’d work on a row of the baby blanket that I’m making for my sister, just to relax after a difficult day. (Also, it’s going to be a big blanket, so the more I get done now, the less I have to do later.) Just as I’m […]

OK, unless you are into the craft that we all know and love on this website, the rest of the world would think I’m a total dweeb for being excited about my find today.
I’ve been playing with the idea of dying my own yarn for a while, a la the Kool Aid method. […]

I crossposted this info to LJ Knitting, but I thought it was amusing.
I was surfing the web, and came across this. If you really wanted to express the knitter inside you, believe it or not, there are “skins” for your cellphone or computer that actually have patterns of stockinette stitch on them in a […]
