Kiela Knits: Ahhh... that's better
http://kielaknits.blogspot.com/2007/08/ahhh-thats-better.html
Monday, August 20, 2007. Check out my best completed UFO this summer! Nearly 10 lbs of baby boy sweetness, but we call him Gavin. He was born July 28th at 10:13 AM. That's 11 days overdue, not that I was counting or anything. Oh, and all those itty bitty newborn soakers? I'm finding that I still need to knit newborn-sized waist/hips and just increase the rise. In order to avoid that lovely diaper plumber-crack, we need a 16" rise. I still can't believe my 3 week old infant needs a 16" rise!

Kiela Knits: Happy NY and some December FOs
http://kielaknits.blogspot.com/2008/01/happy-ny-and-some-december-fos.html
Tuesday, January 1, 2008. Happy NY and some December FOs. So I've been working on a very large custom order the last few months, but in between that, I've also been working on projects to stock Cherry Blossom Knits. I did, however, manage to complete some gifts in December. What is that, you say? I say, Really. I did. Two, in fact, and I'm very pleased with both of them. Then we have, a basic Fan and Feather scarf. This scarf was a free handout from my LYS. The sweet smell of. what is that? Northern Virg...

Kiela Knits: May 2008
http://kielaknits.blogspot.com/2008_05_01_archive.html
Friday, May 16, 2008. I'm in love with this pattern! It's the Baby Surprise Jacket from Elizabeth Zimmerman. It's knit all in one piece with seaming only done at the shoulders. It's amazing, and perplexing, but mostly amazing. ;). And for the curious, it's done in a Peruvian Highland wool hand-dyed by a local artisan. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Kiela Knits: June 2008
http://kielaknits.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Thursday, June 5, 2008. It's only taken me 13 months, but guess what I finished? The Monkey socks from Cookie A. I don't know what took me so dern long! I had that first sock knit down just to the instep and there it sat, unloved and lonely for a full year. Last week I picked it up and decided to give it some love. I was actually pretty scared that I wouldn't know where I was in the 11 row repeat, but just a quick glance back at my needles and I was knitting the correct row in under 30 seconds!

Kiela Knits: April 2007
http://kielaknits.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 10, 2007. Long Time, No Post. Wow It's been a while. It's not that I haven't been knitting, just that I've been knitting for the store. Furiously knitting for the store, actually. With all of the Picky Shorts knitting I've been doing, I haven't had much time for personal knitting. I did manage to finish Peyt's dress in time for Easter, though. Did I mention the snow we got last week? Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). Northern Virginia, United States. View my complete profile. Because I Said So.

Kiela Knits: November 2007
http://kielaknits.blogspot.com/2007_11_01_archive.html
Tuesday, November 13, 2007. Yeah, yeah, long time, no blog. I know. I have had a good excuse, though. The little nursling doesn't leave a lot of time for blogging. Fortunately, I still have time for knitting in the evenings. Why don't I blog in the evenings? Don't laugh. I'm serious. So anyway, back to the knitting. Guess what happened this summer? Go sign up and put me in your friends. I'm Keyswalee. I have visions of my children fighting over this blanket and for some reason, this makes me happy. Next ...

Kiela Knits: January 2008
http://kielaknits.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html
Friday, January 11, 2008. So I cast off on these socks a few days ago and then promptly put them on my own feet. I thought about gifting them to someone, but then realized that I hadn't ever knit myself a pair of socks. Then I realized that I hadn't ever knit myself anything. Anything at all. Ever! And real quick, what's cuter than a newborn bum in wool? TWO newborn bums in wool! My friend, Tif, is expecting twins in March and I could not be more happy for her! Tuesday, January 1, 2008. Pants, but alas, ...

Kiela Knits: July 2007
http://kielaknits.blogspot.com/2007_07_01_archive.html
Sunday, July 8, 2007. Feeling Hot, Hot, Hot. July is in full swing and I am feeling every bit of my nearly 39 week pregnant self. Babe's estimated date of arrival is a mere 9 days away, but who knows when he/she will decide to show up? In the meantime, I'm keeping myself cool in the icy a/c and keeping my fingers busy to pass the time. Here's a pair of Picky Pants and shorts for a trade with a friend of mine. Pants are 3 ply Targhee. In Caramel Sundae, shorts are a slightly thinner Targhee.
