I Knit Something!

Well, despite the fact that my right wrist has decided to not yet get over the whole carpal tunnel thing, I have knit (and completed) something!  I have a few things I have been working on, but I hadn't put all that much in to them recently.  But I finally sat down and knit on the same project from start to finish.


Ok, so its a small cotton baby hat.  And I didn't swatch, so its not as small as I had intended and I have started another one on smaller needles (although between the smaller needles and the less stitches I may have over compensated...)  So take heart, my knitting mojo has not gone away!  (Its just slowed down a bit what with all the distractions)

I'm excited for many things coming up.  Of course there is baby knitting, for both little Miss Evelyn and also for friends' babies.  Then there is the Indie Emporium Shop.  Have I mentioned that exciting news?  I think its going to be great!  And I was thinking maybe at some point I would get back to some of those projects I have in progress for myself.  The easiest to finish would be the chunky fingerless gloves I have been knitting to match my hooded cowl.  I have both of the gloves knit, I just need to sew up the seams and tuck in the ends.

Wish me luck on integrating the knitting, weaving, spinning, etc with the parenting!

GIVEAWAY!!!

As many of you know, I love working with hand dyed yarn.  I especially love Farm Girl Fiber yarn!  Bridgette has an eye for color and has a lot of fun with what she does.  That is why I am so super thrilled that Farm Girl Fiber is sponsoring this giveaway in honor of my opening an etsy shop!   Before the goods, a recap:  I made this Acorn Head hooded cowl for myself on Christmas this year.  I've known pretty much since I bought the yarn exactly what it was going to be, I just had to find time to do it.  This cowl was out of my FGF birthday yarn!  You can't tell in the picture, but it has just this hind of sparkle to it.  Love! I made 2 of these for two different swaps and I really wish I had made and kept one for myself while she still had the yarn!  It was so super soft and super bulky and fantastic!  Sometimes Farm Girl Fiber has very limited lots of things, so if you find something you love, you really need to snatch it up. ...

More Partying

Joining in with Tickle Me Tuesday!  I hope I'm not overloading you, but it's fun to party  ;-) I love this apron , but being a non-pinky, I wish it was blue. These amazing  soaps .   Yes, I said soaps!!! I can't stop looking at them.  One of these days I have to give in and order some. I want this  dress  sooooo bad. feminine, country, old fashioned... love. These  potholders  belong in my coffee themed kitchen.  I gaze at them often. So, those are just a few things tickling my fancy.  Sundresses are also tickling my fancy, if it would only get warm! Go visit the party and see what is tickling everyone else's fancy today!
