Here they are, in all their mismatched glory. Can you believe these are from the same skein of Trekking XXL? It's easier to see the mismatch in the inset photo. I have enough yarn left to make a third sock that is more likely to match the first one
Almost, but not quite

I really thought I'd have a picture of finished socks for you today. I knitted my little fingers to the bone last night while watching Hidalgo (we recently joined Netflix) but stopped just five rows shy of finishing. The movie was over, it was past

Neal and I just got back from our first vacation of the year. Why did we wait so long? Lord knows! Where did we go? Well, take a gander and the picture and tell me. The first person to correctly guess the destination of our little trip wins some
Not a Sock

...but still an FO. This is a scarf for my Mother-in-Law, who likes sparkly things. It's made from Patons Lacette held with Glittalic, on size 13 needles, and was a quick mindless knit to give my hands a break from the tiny size 2s that I am using

The lovely Katherine has tagged me with 20 random facts about myself....so here goes:My childhood nickname was "Poochie."

So there's this guy who has started riding my bus in the morning. A Latino, probably mid-30s, average-looking. He's been giving me the eye for a few months now. At first I thought I was only imagining that when he sat behind me he was straining to

Yes, I've actually been too busy to blog. I was contacted by one of my freelance design clients last week and had to do a rush job for him. He also wants me to create a new logo and fiddle around with his Web site a bit. He doesn't pay me enough t

I hate to brag, but I'm going to do it anyway. :) My Secret Pal 6 is phenomenal! Just look at the goodies that were waiting for me when I got home today: two, count 'em TWO, skeins of Manos in colorway 25, a pale grayish lilac/mauve combo...AND a w

Why, what's this? It resembles a sock. Why, it IS a sock! It's Kathy's first sock-weight-yarn-on-dpns sock! The pattern is the Roman Rib Stitch Toe-up Socks from the 2005 Knitting Pattern a Day calendar (Monday, March 7) and the yarn is Trekking

Here's a long-time UFO finally finished...another variant of Misty Gardens, this one in Petit Pouchet Colorado (I managed to remember it this time without having to look it up...lost those ball bands eons ago). The yarn is really pretty, but somewha
Kemp

Here's Kemp, all finished and ready to go out on the town. He's a big fellow, 15" wide x 9" high, plus 12" in height if held by the top of the straps. He can carry quite a bit, and once I procure and install a snap or magnetic closure, I'll probabl
