KNITSTER

So. Here I am, the prodigal blogger of Knitster, but I do not return empty-handed! [or empty-headed!]

I *have* been knitting, but I’ve been delinquent in my blogging. I decided to attempt something fun and quick, so that I could post about it and get back on track - and that Calorimetry would [...]

Okay, so maybe I’m not masked, but I’m been blazing through a lot of projects lately. I think it’s mostly because of my new job. It’s incredibly boring, non-stimulating in any way. I have almost no interaction with people, and all I do is open mail and pull and file check stubs. YAWN. Like I [...]

I’ve had a few side projects that have gotten me off track of me doing the projects I have in my personal cue that I’ve wanted to do. First, I had a request to do some more wrist warmers for my net-friend, Molly. I made some for her a little while ago, and she “commissioned” [...]

Okay, let me clarify that statement before your mind goes astray in the wrong direction. I recently mentioned holiday knitting.  I only decided– at the last minute, no less– to make a scarf for my boss for the holidays. Money is tight, and she gave me something nice, but I felt I needed to [...]

I tell ‘ya, I’m on a roll! It sounds funny, but I had two– no, make it three incentives for finishing this project.  First, I was so far along, that once I got going, there was no turning back. Second, my feet were cold and I wanted them done. And third, but not least, I [...]

Boy, I’ve been posting here a lot, even though I don’t have a lot to show for my knitting lately. I’ve been trying to get more things done, because I miss taking the time to work on projects. Knitting really is a form of relaxation for me, even when I’m initially stressing about getting the [...]

I don’t know about anyone else, but these days, with the holidays and everything else going on, I’m finding it hard to make some time for knitting.  One way I’ve been squeezing it in is by bringing a project with me while Drew is at TKD. It gives me something to do and distract me [...]

Yes, it’s true. I actually finally finished a project, and a big one at that. I’ve been working on Dad’s sweater vest for a while now, and you saw the start of it a while ago, but now it’s truly FINISHED. It was rainy enough today to warrant not going outside for much of anything, [...]

I think I can speak for all the Knitsters here that we’re all still around, but just each have very busy summers! And we’re all working on bits and pieces of different projects, but as any good knitter knows, some projects take longer than others.
As for myself, I have several projects going on at the [...]

Actually, I’m still working on my dad’s vest. It’s a little longer to work on that, but it’s getting there.
But today, I felt inspired to do a quickie project. And I got it done PDQ! I have had a skein of Phoenix Soy Silk ribbon yarn sitting on my desk for a while now. I [...]
