Something To Aspire To – 2KCBWDAY6
“Is there a pattern or skill that you don’t yet feel ready to tackle but which you hope to (or think you can only dream of) tackling in the future, near or distant? Is there a skill or project that makes your mind boggle at the sheer time, dedication and mastery of the craft? Maybe […]
Where Are They Now? – 2KCBWDAY4
“Whatever happened to your __________? Write about the fate of a past knitting project. Whether it be something that you crocheted or knitted for yourself or to give to another person. An item that lives with you or something which you sent off to charity.” Instead of a finished project, I decided to write about […]
Tidy Mind, Tidy Stitches – 2KCBWDAY3
“How do you keep your yarn wrangling organized? It seems like an easy to answer question at first, but in fact organization exists on many levels. Maybe you are truly not organized at all, in which case I am personally daring you to try and photograph your stash in whatever locations you can find the […]
Skill +1UP – 2KCBWDAY2
“Look back over your last year of projects and compare where you are in terms of skill and knowledge of your craft to this time last year. Have you learned any new skills or forms of knitting/crochet?” This topic is somewhat moot because it has been a little over a year since I started knitting […]
A Tale of Two Yarns – 2KCBWDAY1
“Choose two yarns that you have either used, are in your stash or which you yearn after and capture what it is you love or loathe about them.” It’s been little over a year since I’ve been knitting and within that year I’ve practically turned into a yarn snob. I remember first starting off with […]
Mittens To Match The Cowl
It’s Spring now and what better way to celebrate by making mittens that I won’t be able to use until next Winter. >__> Well, I’ve been wanting mittens for a while now to keep my fingers warm where my fingerless gloves couldn’t fulfill. As always I found the pattern on Ravelry. Now, don’t laugh, but […]
Quick Project: Cowl
Whew. It’s been a few weeks since my last post. I’ve been meaning to post, but as always I’m either busy or lazy. I’m recovering from that respiratory bug that has been going around. I hate it. It sucks. My sinuses are dying. I got good ol’ pseudoephedrine to help out a bit, but it […]
Die Hard Cross-Stitch Ho, Ho, Ho
Greetings. Going to sneak in a hopefully quick post before the end of January. I’m proud to say that I have accomplished one of my resolutions for the year. I finally completed another cross-stitch project. I present to you Die Hard cross-stitch: If you don’t already know, this is a reference to a scene of […]
More Harmony Wood Needles
Recently, I received more Harmony Wood knitting needles from KnitPicks.com. What more could I ask for? Well I could ask for more needles in sizes that I don’t have, but for now I have enough to last me several projects throughout the year. My wonderful boyfriend got them for me as a late Christmas present […]
