Dr Who Scarf and Knitting Night

Went to Renton SNB tonight and was so happy to get half of the ends worked in on the Dr Who Scarf. Talked to a couple of the other women at least one of whom has make the Who Scarf and am beginning to think it maybe long enough. Haven't bound it off because I may decide to add a few more rows just because I still have the yarn.

Think that I should go to the West Seattle SNB and see if I can weave the rest of the ends in.

Note to self: Be sure to take the Art Walk Yarn by Zen Stings and the Hand Maiden Casbah for ashwinsmommy to see. Should check and see if there is anything else she might like to she like Cashwool. Well I can decide next week :)

Photos and Such

Well finally I think I have most of my stash photographed and posted to Ravlery. I also I'm getting photos of all my projects done. :) Also got the whole stash sorted out and neatened up.

The Dr Who scarf is out and I need to get it finished in the next week. I'm really not looking forward to weaving all those ends in. I also need to get some photos of it done. You didn't expect me to have all the photos done did you.

I think tomorrow I will try to get to my knitting group. I'm realize it has been too long and I miss everyone. I've work some things out and I'm more then ready to see everyone.

I just remembered I still need to get pictures of all the beautiful Art Yarn photoed and uploaded. Maybe I can get that finished tomorrow.

Malabrigo Yarn Yum

Stopped by the Yarn Stash today I had to check out the Malabrigo Yarn they got in. I picked up some worsted weight in Simply taube which is a kind of cream color. It will become an Irish Hiking Scarf for me. So far I haven't made a scarf just for me.

I may go back and get some more lace weight Malabrigo but I'm not sure. I already have so many lovely lace yarns and even some in Malabrigo already. I guess it will depend on if they still have it when I need it.

Bad days to good

I was having a bad day today until I went to the mail box. Not only did the rest of my Knit Pick Harmony needles show up but the most beautiful Art Walk Sock Yarn by Zen Yarn Garden. It is just beautiful. This one is based on Georgia O'Keeffe's Black Iris. It has blacks, pinks, purples and whites. I'm going to have to come up with a really good sock pattern for it. Nothing like beautiful yarn to brighten up a day.

I really need to dig my camera out and update my stash but I think I said that the other day.

Out and about on Saturday

My Lord Husband and I went for a ride to Kent to check at the yarn tasting at Renaissance Yarns. The tasting was hand dyed and hand painted yarn and this is one of the many types of yarns that I just can't resist. It was nice they had Duet Yarn, Claudia Handpainted Yarn, and some others that I'm not thinking of right now. I would love to pick up a Louet Hand Dyeing Kit when I have some time to try my hand at yarn dyeing.

I was good and just bought a little Tasting Kit which has enough Claudia Handpainted Yarn to make a baby hat.

Other then that I've been working on my Secret of Chrysopolis it is coming out just beautifully I really do enjoy lace knitting. I really need to get working on the Dr. Who Scarf and my Monkey Socks. Also I really must block my Swan Stole and get picture of it.

Hopefully next time I will have pictures to add.

Must Blog More

Well again I prove that I don't keep up my blogs. Wow, my last post was in May.

Been busy since then, I have been to the West Seattle Stitch and Bitch and also the Renton one. Both groups are wonderful. I will most likely go to the West Seattle one more often the the Renton because it is a little closer. It was nice to meet so many wonderful, friendly ladies.

What I'm working on most is my Mystery Stole 3, it has been a lot of fun knitting something using charts that I have no idea what it will look like. I will definitely knitting more lace.

I'm also knitting a pair of socks because the stole is just to much to knit when I go to the Stitch and Bitches.

Speaking of socks I'm going to want to try some dpn socks because I got a couple of sets of the most beautiful new dpn's . They are Sock Stix and I have 1's in rosewood and 2's in ebony.

Well I guess that is at least an update. Keep Knitting till I see you later.

Socks Socks Socks

I'm learning to make socks using the magic loop method from the toe up. Very interesting.

I learn magic loop from the top down and have already knit two pair of socks that way. This would seems very different, but still fun.

I love socks.
