I’m finding myself moving into winter mode already–thinking more of weaving and knitting plain old mittens, socks, and hats for the children, and of processing all of that food out in the garden for the winter. But I still have three shawls on the needles–four if you count the summer sampler. I’m going to finish that . . . → Read More: winding down Read more »

My first post – I’m so proud. I’m hiding the lace, however… I kept starting things, and then not liking them with the yarn I was DETERMINED to use (Dream in Color Baby – Dusky Blue – YUM). After 4 starts or so and despairing, an email pops into my box – Melanie of the Mystery Shawls . . . → Read More: A bit slow… Read more »

I went to a friends house today to spin yarn for the first time since last year, when she taught me the basics on the wheel, which her husband built. Amazingly, I remembered how it went, and the creamy wool looks terrific on the bobbin. I’m fairly sure I’m going to be knitting these singles into . . . → Read More: An unlikely development Read more »

I thought I had better check in to add my lace content to our blog. I am still knitting away on my Snowflakes in Cedarwoods shawl. I’m currently on row 17 of section G which means I still have a long way to go! I have 776 stitches on the needles and my rows are going . . . → Read More: Checking In Read more »

I keep waiting to take pictures to do a post but I’m clearly not getting that done…
I am bummed. It seems the summer of lace is almost over and I’ve got almost NOTHING to show for it.
I am almost done with Icarus, but I ran out of yarn and am waiting for the custom dye to . . . → Read More: The Progress….not! Read more »

Man, I haven’t posted since the beginning… It’s been the season of the kids out of school for me! LOL Who knew that summer would be so busy?
But… I did finish my first ever lace project AND I’m entering it in the State Fair (and this is Texas, so that is HUGE!) It doesn’t count for . . . → Read More: Catching up Read more »

I am plugging away at my anniversary shawl, and my muir shawl. It is taking longer than I thought on the first, and I am using cobweb lace on the second, so it is slower than I thought, but I think I will be happy with both of them. This is so much fun! I have . . . → Read More: Plugging away Read more »

It is done (or rather it was done on Saturday, but I had to wait till I weighed it to know how much yarn I used).
That is 1388 yards of lace (according to the shipping scale at work and my l33t conversion skills). I held the yarn double throughout, so mods, you may want to halve . . . → Read More: My first shawl (1388 yrds) Read more »

Hi all, this is my first post. I’m kinda slow off the starting line, though I have been knitting. I started the Summer Sampler Study KAL hosted by BadCat Designs, about 3 weeks after the KAL started. I haven’t done too badly, considering I took most of a week off for 4th of July . . . → Read More: First (and probably only) Lace this summer Read more »
