LadybugKnitter: December 2009
http://ladybugknitter.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 3, 2009. I've been obsessed with knitting itty bitty holiday ornaments to decorate a holiday wreath. Faith's blog. And seeing her super cute sock advent garland was all the inspiration I needed to get started working on my ornaments. Aside from feeling that I was knitting with toothpicks and feeling like I was all thumbs while knitting them, they really were pretty quick and easy. I added some holly berries and a few clever ornaments that I purchased at Shadyside Farms. Posted by Lori H.

LadybugKnitter: March 2009
http://ladybugknitter.blogspot.com/2009_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 29, 2009. Mystery Solved and a New Sweater. The mystery socks are now solved! I was able to carefully remove the i-cord bind off on the sock and then do a 2X2 ribbing instead. I even like how the ribbing lines up with the cables - how lucky! I recently started spinning and knitting for a new sweater, Mr. Greenjeans. On hold at the other branch of the library. It's a book that was recently reviewed by Meghan on the Stitch It podcas. T and peaked my interest. Lots of DIY stuff in this boo...

LadybugKnitter: July 2009
http://ladybugknitter.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 25, 2009. Camping brings back great childhood memories. My family always camped every summer. Sometimes we took longer trips like to Yellowstone Park and then other times shorter trips to Mackinaw or Higgins Lake. Now we've carried on the camping tradition with our kids. Posted by Lori H. Saturday, July 18, 2009. I've kind of lost my knitting inspiration lately. Not sure if it's just the busy summer, hot temps or what so there's not much progress to show on the knitting front. Luck...I lov...

LadybugKnitter: May 2009
http://ladybugknitter.blogspot.com/2009_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 17, 2009. So the birthday madness around here has settled down now. Three birthdays in one week is crazy but fun. Here's the awesome camera my hubby and boys got me for the big day. I love how easy and complex it is and that it can fit in my purse. It's even going to get it's own knitted Malabrigo sock cozy to protect it. I'll probably go crazy for awhile with posting lots of pics. This was taken with the foliage setting. Posted by Lori H. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). First day of school!

LadybugKnitter: April 2009
http://ladybugknitter.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 23, 2009. The Little Boy Who Loved Hand Knit Socks. My little guy loves hand knit socks. I knit his first pair a few years back and they have been well loved, worn beyond their prime and outgrown months ago. He would wear them even when the heel flap stuck out on the bottom of the foot because they were too small now. My oldest son doesn't care for hand knit socks thinking Lorna's Laces sock yarn wasn't soft enough - seriously! Posted by Lori H. Friday, April 10, 2009. Posted by Lori H.

LadybugKnitter: A Festival of Fiber
http://ladybugknitter.blogspot.com/2009/08/festival-of-fiber.html
Sunday, August 16, 2009. A Festival of Fiber. Tim, Logan and I attended the Michigan Fiber Festival yesterday. My plan for the fiber fest is arrive early to avoid the crowds. This year I think everyone had the same idea because of the heat and humidity. Needless to say the barns were crowded with lots of fiber enthusiasts looking for deals and inspiration. My first purchase was some Falkland wool top from Winterhaven Fiber Farm. Logan picked out the color for a new winter hat. It was great to see some fe...

LadybugKnitter: Adventures In Wool Washing
http://ladybugknitter.blogspot.com/2009/07/adventures-in-wool-washing.html
Saturday, July 4, 2009. Adventures In Wool Washing. So the last time I purchased a raw fleece and the difficulty began, I swore I would never get a raw fleece again. It's kind of like childbirth, it's painful during the delivery, but once you see that sweet little baby face, you forget all about the pain. Processing a raw fleece is kinda like that. The fleece is a beautiful, crimpy Cormo fleece. Then I heard the host of the Manic Purl Podcast. Wow what a difference! Here's the result after flicking.

Sunday, October 11, 2009. So where have I been? Some modifications I made were not knitting the waistband and doing only 1 inch of garter on the sleeve cuffs. I've also been working on my first toe up sock. Well the first one where I've actually finished one sock that is. Hopefully I'll have some pics to show you soon. Posted by Lori H. November 11, 2009 at 10:43 AM. November 11, 2009 at 10:44 AM. Maybe you could make me a scarf for my bday? Not sure if you have enough time though. First day of school!
