AZURE KNITS BLOG: January 2011
http://azknits.azure-m.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 31, 2011. So for the past few weeks now I have been doing an experiment. My mother-in-law and father-in-law had given me a drop spindle and NiddyNoddy as a part of Christmas present, and one of my parents' present was a brand new wooden swift. I had been wanting to try to spin for a while now, and these presents gave me a perfect opportunity for this! Anyways, stay tuned for both handspun&handdyed yarn and the "H 3" Hand-spun Hand-dyed Hand-knitted series! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

AZURE KNITS BLOG: Crafting saves my day
http://azknits.azure-m.com/2012/10/crafting-saves-my-day.html
Wednesday, October 31, 2012. Crafting saves my day. So, Sandy left New York with whole lot of water and no power. Fortunately our area did not get affected but power at work is down and subways aren't working so my husband and I are basically stranded in Queens. I would have liked to do more spinning, but unfortunately my right thumb is still healing from the slicing caused by mandolin, and the wound is riiight on the area most used for spinning, I mostly stuck to sewing. I'm glad they exist.

Saturday, March 10, 2012. Sock Knitting Ramble. Spinning, Plying, DPN, 2circ, Magic Loop. So I've been spinning over a year now, and am kind of fascinated about sock yarns. And knitting socks. http:/ www.ravelry.com/projects/azure-m/diagonal-lace-socks. I liked the thought of making self-striping or spinning from multicolored roving, and had to try the Navajo plying. Of course I tried my fist one with KP Wool of the Andes Roving. Yarn wasn't exactly a joy to manipulate with a tiny size 0 needle. And anot...

Saturday, September 25, 2010. Drawstring Hat and Neck Warmer 2010. I finally have a new pattern. I think I'm going to try to design one drawstring hat every year. This year its looong. Anyways, you can purchase the pattern from Ravelry. I just have one tip to everyone who is thinking of trying to knit this. When you knit lace, it looks horrible right off the needle. I mean, seriously. Look at this! This is how the hat (Sapphire) looked when I just finished. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Find me on Ravelry!

Also I have not much yet, but I have been brushing my skills on sewing too so I am planning to release some small hand-sewn accessories too. These aren't for sale, but you'll get the gist of it :).

Thursday, August 4, 2011. Long time no see! It has been a while since I last updated this blog. Some people may have thought that I might have stopped knitting or spinning, but.wroooong. It is true that I have been involved in some insanely intense animation gigs and under extreme tight schedule I have not been able to knit or spin as I liked from March-June. Most of July was our vacation time, and my husband and I visited home back in Japan and to SanDiego for ComicCon. What does that mean?

Wednesday, September 28, 2011. Hey guys, sorry I'm not too diligent about updating. My primary job as an animator/illustrator has been preetty hectic, but 1)I've got more exciting animation 2)I designed my friend's new album, 3) I'm in a new band myself and an EP will be released soon, and 4) I have still managed to make time every day to spin. Anyways, spinning is a total enjoyment, and I've been spinning every minute I can find to spare. Http:/ yarn.azure-m.com. JAKE FROM ADVENTURE TIME?

AZURE KNITS BLOG: New Pattern!! "Fringy"
http://azknits.azure-m.com/2012/01/new-pattern-fringy.html
Sunday, January 22, 2012. Woaaathe last time I posted a pattern was November 2010 @ @ Ever since I started knitting sans patterns, I have been designing a bunch of stuff as I went but never got around actually building one. This one should be a reeeal quickie. Before blocking, it was much thinner and felt pretty snug against my face. I liked the pre-blocked look better, but this work just fine too. As usual, when I add fringes I like to make them quite long. I don't know why, but I like it that way.
