Here’s the Monkey Sock by Cookie A. from Knitty. I made this pair on size 3 needles with Lorna’s Laces “Springer” sock yarn.

I like how these turned out except for the fact that I had to use […]
Carol and Nancy came over yesterday and finished up their Fresco Tank Tops. I’m sorry I didn’t get a picture of their Finished Products to show, maybe I can get one at our next Love Knots meeting. I’m so proud of these ladies! They stuck to their goal and now have the skills to make […]
We had a blast at Silver Dollar City! Two days of rides, food, shopping, food, lots and lots of walking up and down hills, and did I mention food? I ate more in two days than I do in a week at home, ha,ha! The kiddos had a blast and wanted to go again on […]
The whole clan’s going up to Missouri for a few days and I hope I can get some major sock progress done. I’m not driving and it’s 3 1/2 hrs to our destination, so I should get a lot of work done on my newest project I cast-on for last night… Jigsaw Socks
I joined Carrie’s […]
Look what I found in my front yard!! Isn’t he cute?
He’s very friendly. The kids we named him “Mr. Bunny”.

Really soft superwash marino yarn and nice colors, too! I’m happy with this yarn. I’m thinking maybe I’ll get some thicker weight for a sweater in a solid color, but after I have finished all the […]

Do you think we knitters could bring a class-action lawsuit against knitting podcasters out there? Those podcasters who have led me us (by raving about the color, texture and cost) to buy tons of yarn I we don’t really need, but it all sounds so good […]
Randi at I Have To Say is having her “Get Real Monday” and it’s about favorite artists.
My favorite is Andre Orpinas.
I only know about this painter because my MIL has given my DH and I so many pictures of his. I think he captures the world when it was more romantic and innocent.
At class this weekend, my friends and I were talking about blocking various articles of the knitted kind and I told about the sweater blocker from Wooly Board . It’s a “must have” product if you are avid about knitting sweaters, it’s also great if you’re not a knitter, but have purchased sweaters made from […]
