I call it a scarf, but Birdsfoot Fern could just as easily be worn as a shoulder shawl. I’m not sure exactly when I knit this, sometime during the summer when I was waiting for yarn for a different project to arrive. The pattern is now for sale, and The Sanguine Gryphon even dyed up [...]

Finally finished Rock Island last week on October 5th. I was so excited! It blocked much bigger than I thought it would. I really hope my Mother-in-law likes it as its for her.

I really meant to post things before the summer season started but never got there so this will be a long post with lots of pictures of things I finished over the spring and into the start of the summer. This scarf was done in the spring and I am only showing it off because [...]

Hello! Looking back, my last post here was for my Evenstar FO last year! Well, it’s been about time for some new lace, and this is my followup to last year’s loveliness: This is the 2010 Goddess Anniversary Shawl, minus the knit-on edging. I knit it from August of last year to April of this [...]

With a number of friends and family members due to give birth in the fall, I’ve gotten down to some serious baby knitting. I’ve finished my first February Baby Sweater, and I really enjoyed the knit (it also got [...]

I should have put them under resurrected lace last season, because last winter is when I picked them up and recommenced knitting them. This is how they looked when I previously [...]

After I finished my WotG Shawl, I had some yarn left over. Ok, I’d went absolutely nuts when ordering and had enough yarn left over to possibly make the shawl two more times. Not being interested in re-doing the shawl (at least, not in the same color) I cast on for a new lace project. [...]
Finally, I have pulled out Lyra again. The yarn is Silky Lace from our lovely sponsor and co-knitter Midnight Sheep, in a custom colorway called Verdigris. You can see the progress on the bloom. I have about 25 pattern rows to go, so I hope to be finished by the end of June. The rows [...]

Yup. I ran out of yarn after the last pattern row. This pattern is Marlene, by Cookie A, and it’s a great pattern but has some odd discrepancies in gauge and row counts, etc. I knit the pattern as written, and the sock, knit to gauge is a bit longer than normal, and because [...]
