After 13 years of watching me crochet and knit, Erm has finally requested I make something for him. I’ve got the pattern and the yarn (from my stash) for it ready so I can cast on as soon as I finish my Kelmscott sweater. Wanna see what Erm has asked for?

There’s a great little LYS there called The Woolly Mammoth, where I bought these beauties: Fiamma yarn by di.vé, 100% wool, thick & thin yarn, really soft! I love the bright greens! I got 2 skeins. This is […] Side Slip Cloche from Boutique Knits I just finished the Side Slip Cloche from Boutique Knits by Laura Irwin. It was an easy knit and finished pretty quickly. I used Hobby Lobby’s “I Love This Wool!” yarn, hand dyed with Kool-Aide. It only took one skein and I still have some leftover yarn. It’s […] Look what came in the mail for me yesterday! Two colors of Plymouth Happy Feet sock yarn! I have hoarded enough sock yarn in the past month to make about 20 pairs of socks…I’m still working on the first pair. But I’m prepared for a year’s worth of sock knitting now! LOL […] |
