Oh my poor little knitting blog! I’m afraid I haven’t been the greatest at keeping this blog up to date these days. I have been neglecting it for my new blog that I have been having so much fun with and getting to know so many neat people through.
This new blog is all about my [...]

I have a confession to make; a knitting confession to be exact. It is something that I am rather embarrassed to admit. It actually has me so embarrassed that I never want to knit in public for fear that a fellow knitter may do a double take because I look rather strange. In fact, a [...]

I stumbled upon this blog today as I was feeling very quilty and down for sort of neglecting my blog this month. I couldn’t have stumbled upon it at a better time! I don’t feel quite so bad now. And the more I think about it the more and more I like it.

Recently I was searching for some more unusual types of yarn and came across Cornucopia by Kollage. It really got my attention because it is made from corn.

This may not be very original but it is something that I have been up to lately in attempts to get myself a little more organized in the knitting department. I am notorious for probing the internet looking for knitting patterns and then printing them out and leaving them in various locations such as favorite [...]

Well, I finally have this blog back up and running again. About two weeks ago some major errors occurred and unfortunately they just kept spreading and spreading like some kind of raging computer fire. Don’t worry; I won’t bore everyone with all the details. Let’s just say it got pretty gosh darn ugly. I’ve been [...]

I recently requested some knitting books from my local library. I just love the library but I will save those ramblings for another post…..
One of the books that I just picked up is amazing. I am not surprised though because I have another book by the same author that is equally as good as this [...]

Yesterday I finished knitting this pair of mittens for my youngest son, L-man. He likes bright and crazy colors so these fit his personality perfectly. And I am hoping that considering how bright they are they will be hard to loose! Both yarns I hand dyed. The orange is dyed with annatto seeds. The yellow [...]
