This is the teddy bear I knitted for my favorite coworker’s baby shower. He and his wife were totally tickled.

I finally figured out how to do the cable on the tank top sweater I’m working on. Hooray! I’ll tell you the trick– it was….READING THE DIRECTIONS MORE CAREFULLY. duh. Once I did that (and paid better attention to what I was doing), then it gelled and started to come together. […]

OK, I was very excited to make a new tank from the Yarn Girls’ Beyond the Basics book that involved a cable in the middle of the front panel of the tank. I figured that with only one cable to worry about, that would be a good project to tackle as a first cable […]

So yeah. I said I’d update and I haven’t, therefore I am a slacker. However, I actually have some knitting to talk about, so this is a good time to break the silence! *waves hi to everyone*
I’m still a relatively inexperienced knitter, despite having taken up knitting more than a year ago. I have a […]

This weekend, looking for something fun and quick to do for a baby shower, I knit something small and fun. I’ll post the pictures and the info after the shower.

Well, I promised to post the photos of the dreaded baby blanket when it was done, and I finally have the photos. Ironically enough, my little nephew’s due date was today, but after seeing my sister just two days ago, it’s highly unlikely he’s coming today. She hadn’t dropped or dialated or […]

We interrupt your nightly blog reading to inform you of the following:
It is now 11:54 PM on July 3rd, 2006, and I have FINALLY finished the baby blanket from hell! I actually cut the project short, as I may have mentioned in a previous posting, because it’s plenty big enough for a baby. It’s […]
