Claw likes the KPPPM sock best. Good taste, kittycat. Three lovely, lonely socks without mates. Front to back, we have Regia Cotton Surf Colors in Pacific, my very first completed adult human sock in KPPPM, and Regia Cotton Color in 5433 (Delft). I love every single one of these socks more than I love all [...]

Comments(0) Sock Yarn Stash Acquisition Syndrome strikes again. I really want to buy two 100g balls of the Regia Cotton Tip and Top in 4083 and 4086. Really really really. I had them in my shopping cart with a ball of Regia Cotton Surf (the purple one, mm) and I made myself close the window. I [...]

I have three socks that need mates (Koigu, Regia cotton surf colors, Regia cotton) two cotton sweaters in the works (the tank and the cap-sleeved) two doilies in the works [...]

They were busy, so I continued onto my house. I grabbed the tank top in progress, three balls of yarn, [...]
Read More..>> Comments(0) I started the tank last night. I’m working it in the round from the bottom up and it’s going to be about mid to high hip length.

Read More..>> Comments(0) I just read that LB is discontinuing Cotton-Ease! JoAnn’s apparently has it on clearance. Clearance. Clearance? Hmmm… [it's not on clearance on their website, however!] I realize that I am not supposed to be buying any more yarn until S+W. I realize this, I do. But if it’s that cheap, I should pick up an [...]
Read More..>> Comments(0) We had my mom/siblings and my mil/bil+his wife over for dinner tonight last night. It was somewhat of a birthday dinner thing since my youngest sister, my mom, DH, and I all had birthdays last week. Crochet-related — I made my mom the rose pouf from this bimonth’s Crochet Me.
