geeknits: December 2012
http://geeknits.blogspot.com/2012_12_01_archive.html
Knitting, sewing, and crafts from my geeky little heart to yours. Saturday, December 29, 2012. Wrapping up those last UFOs. I'd started the Hanna Cowl. Earlier last year, but miscounted the number of stitches and had to frog and start over. I'm giving it another go now. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile. Scarves with a Purpose.

Knitting, sewing, and crafts from my geeky little heart to yours. Sunday, March 17, 2013. Is coming along very quickly. I'm almost finished with the bust increases on the front, and about to start the armholes. As you can probably tell, I decided to go with the colorblocking at the waist after all. I really like these colors together. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. Scarves with a Purpose. The Not Quite Homestead. I finished the back of my mini-dress last night. I.

geeknits: March 2013
http://geeknits.blogspot.com/2013_03_01_archive.html
Knitting, sewing, and crafts from my geeky little heart to yours. Sunday, March 31, 2013. I finished the back of my mini-dress last night. I guess I can be a really fast knitter when I have hours a day to spend on it. I didn't particularly like the jag in the colors, so I adjusted the decreases so that the color B stripe gradually tapered down to one stitch, like so:. K2, SKP (in color B), k to last 4 stitches, k2tog, k to end. K3, SKP (in MC), k to last 5 stitches, k2tog, k to end. Links to this post.

geeknits: A little shameless self-promotion...
http://geeknits.blogspot.com/2013/10/a-little-shameless-self-promotion.html
Knitting, sewing, and crafts from my geeky little heart to yours. Friday, October 25, 2013. A little shameless self-promotion. We're gearing up for Halloween over here. I've been working on a stuffed Hobbes. To go along with my nephew's Calvin costume. He's a lot more finished than it shows in this picture, thankfully. I've been having some trouble with the pattern, but it's very nearly all stitched up, and hopefully I'll have him all put together in time to ship out to NC for Halloween.

http://geeknits.blogspot.com/2013/05/i-finished-blocking-hanna-and-it-really.html
Knitting, sewing, and crafts from my geeky little heart to yours. Wednesday, May 01, 2013. I finished blocking Hanna, and it really made a difference. The seed stitch now lays flat, and the fabric has a much nicer texture to it. It's still ridiculously large, but I'm thinking that just doubling it over into itself lengthwise when I wear it will take care of that. Unfortunately, it's basically summer here in Georgia, so I won't be able to wear it again for a few months. Up next, I'm thinking $5 in Paris.

geeknits: A handful of updates!
http://geeknits.blogspot.com/2013/07/a-handful-of-updates.html
Knitting, sewing, and crafts from my geeky little heart to yours. Thursday, July 11, 2013. A handful of updates! Apologies for not having anything new to post lately, things have been a bit hectic! I got engaged back in May, so planning/reading blogs/pinning has been taking up a lot of my time lately. I'm planning to DIY quite a few things, and I'll post more about those once I've got things hammered out. Don't think that means I haven't been knitting! And check her out!

geeknits: Would you like some fruit?
http://geeknits.blogspot.com/2012/02/would-you-like-some-fruit.html
Knitting, sewing, and crafts from my geeky little heart to yours. Saturday, February 18, 2012. Would you like some fruit? Two years ago, Jerod asked me if I could knit him a hanging fruit basket for the kitchen, since he'd had no luck finding one in stores. I assured him it'd be super easy, and I'd have it knocked out in no time. Cut to today, and the thing is finally finished and mounted in the kitchen:. The pattern is now available here!

geeknits: The Dangers of Improvisation and Acrylic Yarn
http://geeknits.blogspot.com/2013/08/i-finished-up-yoga-bag-over-weekend.html
Knitting, sewing, and crafts from my geeky little heart to yours. Friday, August 09, 2013. The Dangers of Improvisation and Acrylic Yarn. I finished up the yoga bag over the weekend. It turned out pretty good! It's not stretched in the picture (you try holding up a stretchy, lacy, DPN-y mess and get a good picture of it. Not easy! But it only needed a few more rows knit at this point. So if you take a crack at it, that's a good thing to keep in mind. I started $5 in Paris. Labels: $5 in paris.
