Wool in Sunshine: May 2008
http://woolinsunshine.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
A Novice Knitter Sweating it Out in Los Angeles. Monday, May 12, 2008. Ok Last update: January. That's so sad. I've been slammed at work recently, and still am, so this is going to be brief.*. I started knitting the Venus Pullover. So I bought a bunch and started knitting! The cold hard facts:. Pattern this thing would have hit me above the knee - eek) but I shortened it a bit too much. I think it needs another inch but I'm far too lazy to un-bindoff and fix it. I also increased the slope under t...The f...

A Novice Knitter Sweating it Out in Los Angeles. Thursday, November 15, 2007. Revving up the Engine. Here we go again! I'm going to try super-hard to keep this blog updated and somewhat current.

Of course now that the holiday's are approaching, a large amount of my knitting is Top Secret 100% Confidential, but those pics can go up in January. Rarely enjoyed, and frequently ...

Wool in Sunshine: April 2007
http://woolinsunshine.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
A Novice Knitter Sweating it Out in Los Angeles. Tuesday, April 17, 2007. Good Morrow, M'lady! How is that sweater constructed? Do I have that same yarn at home? I bet I could make that at a fraction of the price she obviously paid at Gap. It's like a mental illness or something. As a matter of fact, it's quite common for me to completely lose my train of thought when a piece of knitwear crosses my line of vision. I would be able to use my drop spindle, as it's one of the oldest spinning tools. Said "Don...

A Novice Knitter Sweating it Out in Los Angeles. Monday, February 26, 2007. Resisting the urge to spin. Uhohit's striking again. The urge to learn how to spin. What brought forth this sleeping desire? The Yarn Harlot's latest blog entry. Can you imagine starting with this beautiful stuff:. And creating this beautiful stuff? I feel it calling to my soul! The main problem with taking up a new craft? Is calling to me like mad - it's saying "I know you don't really know what you're doing, but buy me anyway!

Wool in Sunshine: My Stash, and Yarn Storage
http://woolinsunshine.blogspot.com/2007/12/my-stash-and-yarn-storage.html
A Novice Knitter Sweating it Out in Los Angeles. Wednesday, December 05, 2007. My Stash, and Yarn Storage. I'm going to post pictures of my stash. Well, let me add a caveat - this is my stash as of 6 months ago. That's the last time I was brave enough to take it all out and look at it. Plus I was moving, so it was all out anyway. I keep most of my yarn stored in one of these. From Ikea. Works in Progress are stored in a large basket on the floor, or in one of the cubby holes in my coffee table. On a rand...

Wool in Sunshine: July 2007
http://woolinsunshine.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
A Novice Knitter Sweating it Out in Los Angeles. Thursday, July 05, 2007. Where, oh where, have my posts gone? Like the yarn harlot. I frequently undergo strong cases of startitis, that sickness that causes you to cast on for more projects than you can handle even if you have a perfectly good one going. Well, I think my cure to startitis has actually become a sickness on it's own. I've been posting more in the CPH KAL. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Links of a Crafty Nature.

A Novice Knitter Sweating it Out in Los Angeles. Thursday, January 25, 2007. How to wash yarn? Based on what I've read online, I need to wash and dry this yarn before using it, because if I knit it with the goo still on, my sweater might get distorted once I block it. That's bad. I found this yarn online for about $25, which I couldn't pass up (that, and I love this color! I have a feeling that once it dried I'd have a devil of a time re-winding it again.
