I’m a Winner!

By Radarkaty, on November 13th, 2008%

I won when the random generator selected me from all the voters! Beautiful, soft laceweight yarn.

My mom really loved the color. I think this 903 yds are meant for her!

And great little stitch markers.

AND… It was mailed from the middle of the U.S. on Monday. Tuesday was a Holiday. . . . → Read More: I’m a Winner! Read more »

Random Joy Winner reporting in

By Radarkaty, on October 28th, 2008%

I was a winner in one of the Random Joy raffle drawings.   My prize was to select two patterns from Melanie at Pink Lemon Twist. 

I’ve been eyeing a few of her patterns since I began (and have yet to finish!) my Swan Lake stole (Mystery Stole 2).

I chose Leda’s Dream (the Original Mystery Stole) and Scheherazade (Mystery . . . → Read More: Random Joy Winner reporting in Read more »

I started these pre-SoL… but had not finished the first sock prior to event. I think that qualifies as less that 50% complete and therefore I can count the last two foot repeats and toe of Sock One and all of Sock Two as part of my lacy summer. Not that I have . . . → Read More: Monkey Read more »

So, can a frog/restart count double??!??! :D  hahahahahahaha

I finished through clue 2 of my Goddessknits’ Anniversary Mysteral Shawl – even added a few bead on the last two pattern rows.

Unfortunately, Mystic Meadows had to be frogged.  Luckily, I was only up to row 8.  Somehow, I had K2tog everywhere I should have ssk’d and then ended up with . . . → Read More: progress Read more »

Second Lace on the needles

By Radarkaty, on June 22nd, 2008%

Knitting ADHD – that’s me! Actually, I was two pattern rows from finishing the second clue on my GoddessKnits AMS. It was after 11 PM, so I thought I should give it a break. When I finish these rows I’ll have to wait until next Saturday for the next clue, so I decided . . . → Read More: Second Lace on the needles Read more »

WordPress doesn’t seem to want to let me show you the flickr pictures… but I did start my GoddessKnits’ Anniversary Mystery Shawl yesterday. I put a previous post with the swatch and the yarn… but hadn’t gotten to take pictures of the actual knitting.

And we’re off…

By Radarkaty, on June 21st, 2008%

I’m signing up for the most yards, but I think I’ll have to hope complete the most beautiful finished item to win a prize! I’m not such a fast knitter and am not sure I’ll achieve much yardage. Since my lace knitting of choice is a stole or a shawl, I won’t be competing . . . → Read More: And we’re off… Read more »

New Member of SoL

By Radarkaty, on June 2nd, 2008%

New member of SoL here – waiting to bask in its warmth.  The warmth of the SoL.  Oh, wait – this is knitting, not basking in the sun.   Nevermind!

I have signed up for three lace knitting KALs in the last couple of weeks.  All of them start releasing cludes before June 21.   I doubt I will . . . → Read More: New Member of SoL Read more »
