KNITSTER

Do you remember when, not too long ago, I posted a few finished things, which included Oceandirt’s Mittens? (Her mittens are the very first photo in the post.) Well, I finally got my buttocks into gear, and finally mailed them to her. While she lives relatively closeby (maybe a half hour away), my schedule has [...]

Do you remember a while ago I was drooling over a Jordana Paige Knitter’s Satchel as expressed in this post? Well, sometimes “dreams” come true! It’s also a case of persistence (and persuasion) pays off! I got after JC enough that I REALLY wanted the bag, and had been drooling over it for so long, [...]

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, [...]
