I am absolutely delighted to say that my Oregon cardigan is finally finished! I normally don't take a whole year to finish a sweater, but I was using this for a project challenge and there were certain deadlines for it, so I couldn't work too far ahead - but regardless, it's done! The yarn and… Continue reading FO Friday: Oregon

I'm trying to finish up some languishing WIPs this month since I have two fairly large projects (one big stole and a sweater) I want to start in the next couple of weeks, so I pulled out all the things sitting in my basket to see what I could get off the needles before then.… Continue reading WIP Wednesday – January 19, 2022

I have a few things on the go that were last year's Year of Projects pieces I didn't get finished or were other works in progress. I'm slowly trying to get those finished up and I worked on two of them this week. I am in the home stretch on my Sonoran Shawl project. This… Continue reading WIP Wednesday: January 11, 2022

A few non-Year of Projects things on the go right now of note: Sprocket Socks. Pattern is by Pip and Pin and it's a fun way to use up some minis or sock yarn scraps. I've finished sock #1 and have made it through the heel of sock #2. Hoping to finish this pair up… Continue reading WIP Wednesday: November 10, 2021

A few of the things I've been working on this week: I finished up the Pussywillow Cap (Ravelry link). This is a nice, basic ribbed hat that knits up quickly using one strand of sock yarn held together with one strand of mohair. I used Travelling Yarn's 757 Sock in Alchemy of Herbs and their… Continue reading WIP Wednesday – October 26, 2021
WIP Wednesday…or Friday? – October 22, 2021
This week has completely gotten away from me between work and my DH being on business travel and errands and life. I started this post Wednesday but completely zoned getting photos and then pushing the publish button, so eh... let's close the week out with a 2-day late WIP Wednesday, shall we? I've been working… Continue reading WIP Wednesday…or Friday? – October 22, 2021

Hard to believe we are already halfway through June (seriously, where is this year going??), so I thought I would do a WIP post that shows my current projects and outlines what I'd like to try to get done before June has completely disappeared! First up, the In Stillness Cardi, with design by Alicia Plummer.… Continue reading WIP Wednesday – June 15, 2021
Oregon Cardigan – April 29, 2021
Today's Fair Isle Friday project brings me to a stopping point on my Oregon Cardigan for this month (and probably through May - I'll pick it back up in June). Again, I got the yarn and pattern card as a kit from Alice Starmore's Virtual Yarns site. I have about 5 rounds left to knit… Continue reading Oregon Cardigan – April 29, 2021

Right now, before I start on the May planned projects, I've got a handful of WIPs on the go. These will likely go into hibernation for a bit while I work on the May things, but none of them have deadlines in the short term. First up, Romi Hill's Quadrilinear scarf (link to Ravelry). I'm… Continue reading WIP Wednesday – April 27, 2021
