Lights Out

Hello on this Stir Fry Wednesday!

Yesterday was very dark and rainy, so Oogyhubby lit some candles for us to enjoy during dinner.  These became even more useful when the power went out for a few hours just a short time later. 

I'd been looking forward to some quality knitting time (and a cup of tea!) after dinner, but what I needed to do actually required a bit more light than was available.  Oh well - after all, tonight is another night!

In other news: The deer were parading up and down the driveway at 12:45 AM; ask me how I know.

We were so glad to have electricity--some folks nearby have been without for a few days now.
Time to dig out the head lamp! All the cool girls use them.

Now why didn't I think of that?? Head lamps aren't just for foraging for snacks in the middle of the night, LOL!!!

Colorful Booties and Socks

It is the Year of Colorwork, but mostly what I've done so far is produce a few color ful items!  I've been making this baby bootie pattern for years, mostly from leftover sock yarns.  This particular yarn is what remained from last fall's Flamewalker Socks .  That these booties stand up all by their jaunty selves makes them particularly appealing. These are  Crazy For You socks.  They haven't told me yet exactly whom they are crazy for , but I'll let them ponder that for a while.  It appears I may have caught a bit of Knitting New England's Tangerine Tango  with all of these orangey colors!

Wingspan, Part I

Image
I have two skeins of Classic Elite Alpaca Sox yarn that absolutely refuse to become socks. They pool, they gap, they otherwise cry and carry on in all sorts of ways. So, they are becoming Wingspans instead. I finished the first one last night, and cast on the second one this morning. They are, indeed, a pleasurable and addictive knit!

Wedding Pillows

I've been busy, but I don't have much to show for it - yet. You will be seeing a lot of finished lace in the coming days, so stay tuned! In the meantime, here are two pillows that I dyed and knit for friends who are getting married next week.
