Well, the corn snake socks are finally finished! I feel like I’ve been working on them for. ev. er. But it was only a month. Exactly one month, in fact. Started them on March 25, finished them on April 25. And I’m still nearly a month early for Mela’s birthday. (I don’t think she’s found [...]

Well, I was able to finish the second Camo Rib Sock on Thursday night at the Yarns R Us knit-in and anniversary/birthday party. (Today, April 19th, is the official third anniversary of the day Kim opened her shop — congrats Kim!) These were super-easy to make, knitted from the toe up on one 40-inch-long size [...]

Just a wee break for something not necessarily knitting related… On my drive home from work today, there was a brief incident that totally pissed me off. As I began my usual berating of the object of my anger for the next several blocks (yes, out loud, and no, the object of my anger was [...]

I’m having a little knitting ADD this week. On April 1 (no fooling) I started a pair of camo rib socks (well, just the first one).
It’s just a very basic toe-up sock with a stockinette sole, short row heel and 4×2 ribbed instep and leg. I’m using what I learned in last Saturday’s knitting class [...]
