On Saturday, I learned how to knit socks from the toe up. While I can’t say that I’ll abandon the cuff-down approach, I know I will definitely use toe-up from time to time, specifically when I’m not sure how much sock I can get out of my yarn supply, and definitely for baby socks — [...]

While riding in the car to and from my nephew’s baptism last Sunday, I was able to get quite a bit of knitting done on the untitled/diamond camo socks. And even more Sunday evening. Unfortunately, I discovered I would not have enough yarn. The first sock is now waiting to be frogged and will be [...]

Say hello to my newest FO, Nautie the Nautiloid. He’s an Easter/Baptism gift for my nephew, Billy. I’ll confess I didn’t enjoy the “process” of knitting this as much as I enjoy knitting socks, hats, scarves, etc. Maybe because I used 2 circular needles instead of double-points. With having to stuff as the shell is [...]
Now, for a break from these @#$% baby hats!

Well, I am a little sick of the baby hats right now, but maybe not quite as bad as that headline implies. I finished the final St. Patty’s Day hat last night. I wanted to make one that was a little more lacy, so I searched through the stitch pattern section of the old knitting [...]
Yeah, still knitting those baby hats…

Well, in spite of coming down with some flu-ish thing last weekend that kept me from knitting for a couple days, I managed to get a total of 6 baby hats done to deliver to the hospital in time for St. Patty’s Day. And since I delivered those on Wednesday, I finished two more and [...]

OK, so earlier in the week I mentioned I would need to put my current sock project aside to finish the newest batch of baby hats so I can get them to the Reading Hospital in time for the St. Patty’s Day babies. I’m happy to report that I did as I should and worked [...]

Well, the first two of the new batch of Reading Hospital infant caps are finished. There’s no way I’m going to have enough of the green yarn to match up with the amount of white yarn I have to make all of the St. Patty’s Day caps in this design, so I downloaded another one [...]
