I finished my Iris Socks!
The cuff is done in a Vandyke stitch. A simple diamond lace design.

Dear MagKnitters
I am really sad to have to tell you that we are no longer going to be
publishing free patterns on […]
Just an update on what I have been knitting, and also what my 7 yr old has been knitting.
First, presenting her first pair of knitted socks (on dpn’s), here are Ky’s socks:
Aren’t they adorable?! She decided to give them to her little brother so he’d have some house socks. Isn’t that sweet?
These are the tank […]
Today I wanted to share some fun, informative blogs and books that will help you learn about this amazing craft.
I have only been learning on my drop spindle for about a month, but I’m hooked! I’m still not finished with the 4 oz. of roving I got here , but I can’t hardly wait to […]
My family and I went down to the Millennial Way Farm to watch their spring shearing. We had such a great time! They have several Jacob Spotted sheep, a few Alpacas and quite a few Angora rabbits.
We watched the shearing, got to pet the new baby lambs, and the super soft Angora bunnies, bought roving […]
