I haven't had much of a chance to update the blog but I have been knitting away with plenty to show.

None of these have been blocked yet. The finished shorties are all going for their wash in just a bit.
This first pair is Belladonna Retro with matching trim on BFL.

The next finished pair is Disco Baby's Uranus on BFL.


These shorties are waiting for some trim to finish them up. These are done on Sugar Bubbies Gaia Bulky in their Brodie colorway. Wonderful to knit with and the colors are so nice.


I am working on this pair in between projects. This will be part of a newborn set I am stocking at the grand opening of my new congo (stay tuned for details)! These are knit with Three Irish Girls Tierney on Galenas Merino -- perfect for a new baby. They have a cable down that side and will have some matching booties and a hat.

These are drying now and should be ready to head out the door later this week or early next week. A pair of shorties done with Mosaic Moon Elements on Targhee.

This skirty is also heading out the door this week. This is the large skirty done with Three Irish Girls Meg on Lindon Merino with Cascade trim.


And these two skirties with matching headbands will be heading out as well. I am not sure who the dyer is (will get that information and edit this post).


Just a heads up for folks I am shipping to, my youngest is pretty sick right now so getting postage printed and dropping the package off at the PO (so it gets scanned right away) may take a few days -- thank you so much in advance for being patient!

Some finished skirties that will be heading to their homes this week:

First a large skirty done with TIG Meg. I just finished this for the second time, after I blocked the first time I wasn't happy with the soaker placement (it was off center) so I frogged the soaker and re-knit it -- much happier with the placement now. It just needs a quick re-blocking and it will be heading home. Sorry for the small picture, for some reason when it is larger one of the corners is cut off.

And two newborn skirties with matching headbands -- these are so tiny and absolutely adorable!


Hopefully I can grab some better pictures before these all head out it was a bit late in the afternoon so the shadowing is bad!

Check out my Mom!

My Mom taught me the basics of knitting about 5 years ago, so she gets all the credit for what my obsession has become. If you ask my Mom, really if you ask anyone who knows my mom if she knits they would probably look a bit confused. See my Mom doesn't knit she quilts, and she quilts a lot. I convinced her awhile back to start a blog about her quilting, so go check out the beautiful work my mom does! You can find it all here: http://katahdinquilts.blogspot.com/

Just a few pictures of the massive amount of snow we got last night. When I went to sleep my van was red with no snow on it -- when I woke up at 7:30 this morning here is what my van looked like (my husband shoveled the right side of the van so he could get out to go to work.

The top of this ladder was clear last night -- I didn't measure but that is at least 24"!

And a shot of the backyard - very pretty this was super sticky snow so it has that winter wonderland look!

And now the woolies -- making progress on the skirty, this is one skein (well I haven't knit the last foot of it). I plan on adding the second one as soon as I am done with the soaker for underneath. I needed to add the soaker to get a better idea of length -- skirty length can always be decieiving especially with these twirly skirties because they don't lay flat until you get the soaker done.

And a shot of how far I have gone on the soaker -- this should be mostly done by tonight so I can get back to work on the body of the skirt.

The Blooming longies are finished and will be shipping out tomorrow.


My next project is a skirty on Three Irish Girls Meg dyed on Lindon Merino this is coming out really nice and the yarn is WONDERFUL to work with, I can't wait to finish this up :)

Here is the project for this week. A pair of longies on Mosaic Moon Blooming (on Targhee). I am just about to split for the legs so these should be done by this weekend.



This came in the mail today 2 skeins of Meg by Three Irish Girls on Lindon Merino this will become a skirty next week :)
