Update on Annabelle

Just wanted to let you guys know that Annabelle is now available for purchase outright at Hipknits. I know a few of you were wondering if it would be, since at first it was only offered free with yarn purchase. Details for Annabelle can be found here.

Did You Know?

I received an email today at work with some “fun” facts about merino wool. The little video is a bit strange though. Do they really think that techno music makes everything better? They talk about merino being sexy. (They even mention underwear?) The video is on this page, click “see sexy merino.” It’s now machine [...]

Another Secret Done

Another secret done, or at least almost done! I just need to sew in the sleeves and the buttons and I’ve got another FO! Yay! As you can see, it’s sitting across the room with the sleeve all ready to be sewn on. Crappy pic you say? You want more details? Sorry, not for at [...]

So Did I finish?

Yes! I did finish my pomatomus socks on Friday night – well, technically Saturday morning. I finished weaving in the last end close to 2am. I knew I wouldn’t be able to sleep until I finished, so why lie awake in bed thinking about the sock you could have finished by now? There’s just no [...]

One Down, One to Go!

Here was the first pomatomus sock last Thursday. My co-workers suggested it looked like a seamonster: And here is the first sock as of last night: I’m loving them so far. Or should I say loving it! Off to cast-on for sock two. I am lucky and thankful that I don’t suffer from SSS!

Goodies!

Everyone loves goodies and presents, right? When I came back from having lunch in Bryant park, this package was waiting on my chair. This is a little package I received from Anjo over at the Craftymodster for entering in her August Project Spectrum giveaway. The grand prize was a CD of neutral titled songs, but [...]

Rockn’ Weekend

Not too much knitting going on around here, but I was very excited to finally start my Pomatomus socks! I bought the Koigu for them back in the beginning of March! In fact, I believe that is the last time I even bought yarn! Left work early on Friday and knit on the train down [...]
