see . . . all the time

(post started before the onset of the plague) 

Another finished hat . . .

pattern:  Avalanche Hat Pattern (pdf)
yarn:  Lamb’s Pride Bulky (85% Wool 15% Mohair) from stash
cast on/off:  Jan 11th
notes:  I knit the pattern as written, but with the thinner yarn and smaller gauge the resulting hat is more of an infant size.

I think I’m done with hats for a while.  I [...]

all hats all the time

Here is how much I knit while waiting for the NP to look at Bug’s toe this morning.  Toe will be ok, just have to soak it 3x a day for a week.  Hat will be another one for the Dulaan Project.

This is what I knit up last night.  Yes, that is snow in the background.

pattern:  Basic hat [...]

dang it’s cold

Do you see that?  15 degrees!!  It just doen’t get that cold around here, at least not at this time of year!  This is just below the legal limit, in my opinion, just not allowed.  This is the Pacific NW, we don’t have real weather, we have bland weather.  I drizzles, summers are mild [...]

so much yarn, so little time

There is so much going on in the blogsphere.

another one bites the dust

pattern:  CIC Toddler Sock 
yarn:  Kraemer Yarns Mauch Chunky – Strawberry Y1007
needles:  Clover Bamboo 5mm
notes:  Love this pattern.  Simple, fast to knit.  I knit the first sock a few months ago and then decided to knit up the second yesterday after Jenn declared this “F your O’s Week”.  One down, too many to go.  These socks will go to the [...]

the hat

I was able to finish the hat on the way to the fair. 

pattern:  Ann Norling #55 – Head Huggers
yarn:  Marfi (?)  Stripe (I lost the ball band, but I know it was called Stripe)
needles:  Colver bamboo US8
cast on:  Aug 24th   cast off:  August 26th
notes:  If hubby had actually liked the hat (grrr) I would have ripped [...]

hey, is that a piece of fairy cake?

Yesterday morning was the “Great Yarn Giveaway” at Ryan’s for the Dulaan Project.  I went.  I was speachless at the vast quantity of yarn.  I brought home yarn.  I only brought home 3 skeins and some small bits.

Now, for a trip through the Total Perspective Vortex . . .
