I’ve joined the party and started a pair of Spring Forward socks from the most recent Knitty. The pattern is quite addictive but I struggled with the 66 stitch count since it was too big for me. I finally got success with some TOFUtsie from my stash which is working up quite nicely.

Now I’m about to cast on for a lacy cardigan from CEY Summer Book 1. I’m using the suggested Classic Elite Sundance which is a nice squishy cotton/microfiber blend that will hopefully knit up quickly . . . → Read More: Blocking & Swatching Read more »

I adore lace. My lace knitting is usually limited to socks, but love lace scarves and shawls even though I don’t attempt them as often.

I’m especially looking forward to . . . → Read More: Howdy Read more »
