Chickenlips Knitting: July 2006
http://chickenlipsknitting.blogspot.com/2006_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 23, 2006. A series of fortunate events. Now here is a bad photo of the WIP I displayed in my last post. I'm usually not so easily swayed to do something different at a point where it's too late to start over. But I couldn't resist a fellow knitter's suggestion while I was knitting at Lint. My DH said the color change didn't look like an afterthought (17 years of marriage has taught him something! It has been a Hell of a lot of knitting. Posted by Sharon @ 12:19 PM 1 Comments.

Chickenlips Knitting: Tweets from the abyss
http://chickenlipsknitting.blogspot.com/2011/06/tweets-from-abyss.html
Friday, June 17, 2011. Tweets from the abyss. Just a little riff on Carrie Fisher; a la Postcards From The Edge. My friends, I have to say that 2011 kind of blows so far, and things seemed to have reached the nadir last week. Not that we're guaranteed a thrill a minute or anything, but come on. I do have things to look forward to, like the 2011 Black Sheep Gathering. Which is next week! And of course, the thing that will save the first half of this year, is another chance to see Rush. In concert. We ...

Chickenlips Knitting: Shawl we dance?
http://chickenlipsknitting.blogspot.com/2011/06/shawl-we-dance.html
Thursday, June 30, 2011. Dear friends.I should always re-read these blog posts before I hit "Publish". Last post seems almost freakishly maudlin in retrospect! Things certainly aren't always bad as all that, and I'm sorry to have given that impression. The 2011 Black Sheep Gathering. Has come and gone, and I enjoyed it tremendously. The weather was beautiful, which did much to bring people in, and everyone was. excellent. Case in point: a spinner's wheel unfortunately went missing, which is definitely not.

Chickenlips Knitting: May 2007
http://chickenlipsknitting.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
Thursday, May 31, 2007. So as not to be thought of as one of those dreaded Fiber Snobs, I treated myself to some inexpensive yarn:. I actually got five balls of the Cotton Plus. I've never used Fishermen's Wool, so I thought I'd give it a go. Haven't sold anything yet at my Etsy shop. And I probably won't for a while since few people buy doggie sweaters in the summer. But I thought this would make a nice doggie Aran. And the cotton-blend- what to do with it? The awesome knitters at Mosaic Yarn Shop.

Chickenlips Knitting: It's not a "gang"...it's a Club!
http://chickenlipsknitting.blogspot.com/2011/08/its-not-gangits-club.html
Thursday, August 04, 2011. It's not a "gang".it's a Club! That's right - I have given this a whole three minutes of serious consideration, and decided that next year I will do something exciting that I have wanted to do since the founding of Stitchjones Hand Dyed Yarn in 2008, and that is - a yarn, fiber and gift club! Not to suggest that we're only talking yarn and fiber, though! Now to the not so fine print: Prices. There are two price options, depending on how you want your packages to get to you.

Tuesday, September 26, 2006. Wayback Wednesday, and Real Knitting. Willya just look at this guy? Here somebody went to the trouble to knit him a spiffy mohair cardigan, and you know he's gonna get burn holes in it. Pic was taken from a 1961 Bernat Mohair book.). La ChicKami, she is done.

Chickenlips Knitting: October 2006
http://chickenlipsknitting.blogspot.com/2006_10_01_archive.html
Saturday, October 28, 2006. Happy Halloween, darlings. The sick and twisted genius that was Chas Addams. As promised, here is a FO with ugly all over it. With the best of intentions, I set out to make the Pine Cone Scarf from an Interweave Knits. Says it's OK to buy as much yarn as you want. Yet strangely enough, my first thought upon waking each day is, "I must knit up my stash! Well, make that my second thought upon waking, the first being "Coffee.".

Chickenlips Knitting: December 2006
http://chickenlipsknitting.blogspot.com/2006_12_01_archive.html
Thursday, December 28, 2006. Knit that bundle of joy a sarcophagus! For some reason, the little shaver doesn't look too happy. Wiener Wrap, or What I Knit For My Dachshund. Buster is modeling the "Halloween" or "Oregon State Beavers" themed sweater. However, it's a bit on the longish side, especially the chest piece- so he's always piddling on it! OK, now that we've got the legalese out of the way, here is the pic:. I even made an Excel chart. For the intarsia. Party on! Monday, December 25, 2006. 7 leat...

Chickenlips Knitting: March 2007
http://chickenlipsknitting.blogspot.com/2007_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 30, 2007. The only thing better than flan. I've returned from San Diego, or Sandy Eggo, as Kiki. Called it- now I'll never think of that town again without thinking of waffles, thanks, Kiki- and the gorgeous confection you're looking at, was my complimentary dessert for being a first-time visitor at a restaurant in Balboa Park (called "Prado"). Now there's an idea! Posted by Sharon @ 9:32 PM 3 Comments. Monday, March 26, 2007. My sweet friend Nikki. I wish there was such a thing as a profes...
