What Kind of Knitter Are You?

You appear to be a Knitting Goddess. You are constantly giving and are unconcerned with reward, you simply want others to love knitting as much as you do. If someone wants to knit miles of novelty yarns, you are there for them. If someone wants to learn short row shaping, you can help. There are no taboos in knitting, only opportunities to grow. Everyone should have friend like you around if they want to learn to knit, and there's a good chance that your passion has rubbed off on a few others.http://marniemaclean.com Take this quiz!

I Miss Journeyman

Ok, geek moment but here is a petition to save one of the shows I really liked this year. Not only was it canceled but they totally left everything hanging. SO frustrating.

....so if you happen to be a fan (or just want to do me a tiny little very easy favor) go sign the petition and hope for the best.

While you're clicking stuff - come see me at the blog with more pictures =)*)

Update/ Lace

Hello everyone. I keep saying that I am going to abandon this blog, but it continues to get traffic every day. SO, instead, I'll be periodically posting something for y'all to look at when you show up, with another reference to the blog I now use most often. kay?

Here's what I'm working on now. It's my Fern Lace Stole and I'm almost half way finished! Yaay!

If you'd like more details, you can click on over to Clandestine & Candour. While you're there, you can subscribe =)) (hey, a girl can be hopeful, right?)

Take care, I'll be sharing more stuff in the days to come.

Sleep, Breathe and Knit

Oh yeah, and sometimes I eat a bit =) But the former 3 seem to be all I do lately. The sleeping is real nice. After having such a hard time sleeping for so long, it's such a relief to be able to relax into sleep.

The knitting is nice, too. I didn't realize I could finish a pair of socks that fast. I really like these. They look a little similar, but different. They are very comfy and that's what's important.

You can I've cast on for pair number 3. There were only 10 stitches on the needles in this picture, but now, I'm very well along into the first cuff.

I would like the start my second sock some where close to the same spot as these since it's a self striping yarn. One of the Knit Picks variety. I don't recall the name or even the color. I've had it in a ball waiting to be knit for like a year and a half, at least. Too long. It's a little rough on the hands now that I've gotten used to the bamboo stuff, but these yarns always soften up greatly once washed. (as you all know, so why did I bother to say so? hmmm?)

Well.... we'll see how I keep up the pace. I would like to at least start pair number four this month. That'll be a serious record for me. I don't think I've knit 4 pairs in 6 months before! The weird thing is, you'd think I'd be getting tired of making socks, but it seems to be the reverse. I won't be able to keep up this pace forever, but I can see me making lots more that I have been.

Yaay for Socktoberfest!

Hey Everyone

Check out my Socktoberfest Socks! 1 1/2 pairs so far! Yaaay!
