One Door Closes, Another Opens

Hello on this Sweet Chili Salmon Monday!

We've come to the end of our yarn adventure revisit:


We had a great time back in 2004, and it was super fun to go through all the slides and try to remember what we did :) 

Don't be too sad - our SharonAir MKAL starts this Friday, and Neuro has told me she's been swatching to make sure that her (custom-dyed yarns by her!) colors all work together for her.  I still need to find the right size needles and choose some fun stitch markets for the voyage.

In the meantime, I'm trucking along on Shawlography's knitted-on border and a couple other projects as well.  I'll start to share more pics of those now that we're through our PPT.

This heat wave is supposed to start moving away, which means we can start to open windows and think about using the oven to make dinner if needed!  I've been improvising with the stovetop - not a terrible workaround, but you can't really make a pizza or magically change those root vegetables into caramelized bits of wonder....

Stay safe and well!

I'm sure that I must have saved my copy of the slides...I have a new-found ambition of organizing stuff, so it might surface soon!
It's been super fun reviewing our awesome trip. Thanks Oogy!!!

Colorful Booties and Socks

Image
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.
