orange cat knits: March 2011
http://orangecatknits.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Sunday, March 27, 2011. I got an email notification that the March sock club kits shipped.so it seemed like a good time to start this year's January socks. I might have to start something else in tandem, preferably monotone with a stitch pattern that you can just memorize and go. I just bought 3 skeins of madelinetosh pashmina for 40% off at my LYS's spring sale? I'm pretty sure this wants to be a shawl. Hmm. Tempting. Monday, March 7, 2011. 1 weekend, 2 completed projects, 13 inches of snow. And we had ...

orange cat knits: surgery.
http://orangecatknits.blogspot.com/2011/04/surgery.html
Saturday, April 9, 2011. Mmm, red cotton ramen! Isabella is turning out to be. The project of many troubles. I dug it out today to get to work on fixing what I thought would just be the top few inches of the front. Did a quasi-fitting (i.e. held it up against my torso and glared at it in the mirror) and decided that was still going to be at least an inch short, midriff-wise. Thus: major rippage. Is why I usually just make scarves. Sarah {The Student Knitter}. YOull appreciate the extra effort in the end!

orange cat knits: July 2010
http://orangecatknits.blogspot.com/2010_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 3, 2010. My first Rockin' Sock Club sock, from January's shipment. Apparently I am super sock knitting lady now. Check it:. I seem to have a thing for crazy cables these days. K3tog through the back loops, anyone? I finally started to get the hang of it near the end of the leg. Hopefully I don't forget how to do this by the time I make it to the leg of the second sock, which, okay, I started this one in.January. Here's hoping it's not 2011 before you see its partner.

orange cat knits: this one is just right
http://orangecatknits.blogspot.com/2010/12/this-one-is-just-right.html
Sunday, December 19, 2010. This one is just right. I knit a scarf. Exactly what I was going for. (I love Laura's designs, the Galileo mittens. Are just about the coolest things ever. Next to my scarf of course.). Knit with Lana Grossa Evento, which is mostly cotton, but wrapped in fluffy merino and oh so warm, as I learned during this photoshoot. Ruffles ruffles love love. And soon I'll start a new scarf. Since someone around here said he wanted one. I LOVE that scarf! December 20, 2010 at 9:24 AM.
