Twinknit

After my last post, and before I could give any of you a chance to respond, I immediately ripped out the Lozenge socks and cast on for my second attempt with this yarn — Minty’s Leyburn socks.  It was love at first sight, even with the short row toe (my first).  I knit all weekend […]

Still in Kentucky, but heading down this evening to MerleFest in North Carolina.
A few notes of interest:
- If you are participating in the Sound Swap, you should have received an e-mail from me with your “swapee.”  If you haven’t, drop me an e-mail and I’ll take care of this ASAP.

- There has been knitting here.  Mom’s fingerless gloves are […]

As if the nasty weather weren’t enough, I’ve been floored by a particularly aggressive cold.  I haven’t even felt much like knitting, although I cast on and knit a few inches of my mom’s new fingerless gloves (good lord, this particular shade of lorna’s is beautiful!  You would never have known it from the skein, […]

Just a reminder — sign ups for the Sound Swap close at midnight tomorrow, Wednesday April 11th. There are still seven spots left.
For those of you who have signed up, I sent an e-mail out tonight with the questionnaire. If you feel you should be signed up for the swap, and for some reason […]

I had a post of recent knitting all written and tidy, but my camera battery refuses to charge before the light disappears, so I’ll save it for tomorrow.  BUT — I thought I’d share some photos from my recent trip to Colonial Williamsburg and up the Eastern Shore.  Before I do, just a note — […]

At long last, it’s time — I’m ready for Sound Swap sign-ups (I can tell already I’m gonna have a good time with alliteration!)

[Don’t worry — all my music isn’t classical.  Just these records.  But aren’t they pretty?]
What is Sound Swap?
Sound Swap arose from my desperate need for new music.  Several of you out in […]

Wow. I’m so excited about the response I got to the (now somewhat officially named) Sound Swap. I’m gonna pull together the details this weekend and will have an official post about the whole business by Monday. A few items for thought:
1. I did some research, as I am wont (and trained) […]

Since the photos-function of my internet is still painfully slow, and because I like to keep y’all in suspense about my beautifully organized kitchen, I thought I would put out some feelers about a swap I’ve been wanting to throw together. Here’s the deal — I love music, which you might have figured […]
