Fiber Cafe: May 2010
http://fibercafe.blogspot.com/2010_05_01_archive.html
Coffee, yarn, books, cats, music, family. what more could a gal want? Tuesday, May 4, 2010. Works in progress, May 2010. So, okay. I've been working on this sock, which I am now thinking of as "the Spring Sock," now and again, mostly when I'm out of the house, because I keep it in my purse. I love it. I love the colors, I love how it feels (100% Merino from Cherry Tree Hill Yarns. Purrrrr), and I love working on a plain ol' plain ol' sock just to keep the fingers busy when the mind is elsewhere. I've nev...

Fiber Cafe: A new nephew
http://fibercafe.blogspot.com/2010/09/new-nephew.html
Coffee, yarn, books, cats, music, family. what more could a gal want? Thursday, September 16, 2010. Look at those little blue elephant buttons! And a new sweater. The Jasper Diamond Hoodie. Size 6 -9 months, knit in Plymouth Jeannee DK. I love pretty much everything about this sweater, except that the largest size is too small for Jamie. I've resized patterns before, though, so I guess I could do it again. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Guess what Im doing! Cast On Knitting Podcast.

Fiber Cafe: June 2010
http://fibercafe.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Coffee, yarn, books, cats, music, family. what more could a gal want? Wednesday, June 9, 2010. Ha ha, just kidding. Mostly. I've been sidetracked from the Hey Teach sweater. By these darling washcloths. Sorry about the lousy light, it was raining and gloomy but I couldn't wait to take the pic. Now, as I write, it's sunny and bright out (of course). The pattern is Reverse-Bloom flower washcloth. Look at all that dangling yarn! I figured out early on that I could work each cast-off end into the knitting by...

Coffee, yarn, books, cats, music, family. what more could a gal want? Monday, September 28, 2009. I just finished the "tangle" of the Tangled Yoke cardi! Sorry about the poor photos, it's been too rainy for good pics, but I just couldn't wait for sunshine.). The construction of this cable is amazing and it was just magical to see it emerge from the needles. I hope I can keep the momentum going as the yoke grows smaller. I'd love to wear this soon! Links to this post. Thursday, September 24, 2009. I was h...

Coffee, yarn, books, cats, music, family. what more could a gal want? Wednesday, October 14, 2009. Tangled Yoke Cardigan and other stuff. So, I finished the Tangled Yoke Cardigan last Wednesday. I have to say, I really love this sweater. This cable is brilliant. Love. It. In other knitting news, I have a dilemma regarding my Tilted Duster. Click on that link to see what it's supposed to look like. Then see below. Or do I frog the entire thing and re-use the yarn? Then I've got a pile of projects to think...

Fiber Cafe: Guess what I'm doing!
http://fibercafe.blogspot.com/2010/09/guess-what-im-doing.html
Coffee, yarn, books, cats, music, family. what more could a gal want? Tuesday, September 14, 2010. Guess what I'm doing! At the end of August, my friend Rachel and I spent a weekend in west Michigan and attended the Michigan Fiber Festival. 65279;. I bought a spindle! My first ball of singles. I had a terrible sore throat and was weak with a fever, and had no resistance against the wily spinner/vendor from Handspun by Stefania. Alpaca, merino, and silk. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

http://fibercafe.blogspot.com/2007/07/green-gable.html
Coffee, yarn, books, cats, music, family. what more could a gal want? Sunday, July 1, 2007. Is finished. I could have made it a size smaller, but I really am happy with how it turned out. I think I may still modify the neckline a bit. We'll see. I used the recommended yarn, Brown Sheep Cotton Fleece. I love it. This has become one of my favorite yarns. This project was started on May 5, 2007, finished June 29, 2007. PS Happy Canada Day, Peg. Looks like you are having some summer! Feelin the Monkey love.

Coffee, yarn, books, cats, music, family. what more could a gal want? Wednesday, March 31, 2010. Links to this post. Monday, March 29, 2010. The anklets are done! I gave them to my grandmother yesterday, and she liked them very much, although she felt she had to give me a hard time about not getting them at Christmastime. Cherry Tree Hill Supersock Merino in colorway "Water." I think just a pair of plain socks to show off all the colors. For me. Then maybe I'll be ready for the sweater. Links to this post.

http://fibercafe.blogspot.com/2010/03/knitting-olympics-results.html
Coffee, yarn, books, cats, music, family. what more could a gal want? Monday, March 8, 2010. A Cardigan for Rose. I finished the knitting and grafted the hood and underarms and wove in all the ends on March 3. I had to go out and buy a single wooden toggle and knit an i-cord loop to fasten the cardigan at the neck and I finally did that on Saturday the 6th. Now I really can't wait to start one for myself! Swatching is good, Sunday I had my sweater on 3mm needles, I hadnt realised the Kauni I was swatchin...
