Antoher pair of socks.

DH stepped in last night, just before my laptop was about to take a flying leap out a 2nd story window. My may laptop is back up and running, and look I even have pics of my latest pair of socks for the SAM KALIII.

Yarn: Trekking XXL, I’m not sure the colorway, the ball [...]

What a weekend

Let’s start with Friday’s visit from the UPS guy. He brought me a box from Knit Happens and look what was in that box.
Some Jade Company Mongolian Cashmere in a lovely lilac ( 6 skeins to be exact) and some Touch Me in “Burgundy Cream”, it really does look that purple in person (5 [...]

Welcome to my new Blog home.

DH got me my own domain, so my blog has moved. Since I haven’t figured out how, or even if I can move my blogs from blogger, everything to date will remain there, until such a time as I can figure out how to move it, or maybe just reside there permenantly. We’ll [...]

Yarn and another quickie FO

The roving from my last post, spun up wonderfully quick. Now I wish I had more of it, because It came out beautifully. Long sections with the barber pole with intermittent sections of dark blue or light blue. Only 93 yards, but I’m sure I’ll find some use for it.
I went into [...]

Pattern: Wicked by [...]
