A Day of Dyeing

Yesterday I dyed a bunch of yarn! These are the happy results.

These are the worsted weight skeins.
And these skeins are fingering weight.

Another Finished Item


Does this wrap look familiar? It's very similar to my wedding wrap, but I changed the center pattern from cables to lace and knit in a different yarn. It took me forever to knit it, but I finished it!

Finishing Things!

Here's the project bag I mostly finished months ago. Well, today I finally sewed on the button and snap to completely finish! First the snap:
That pocket needed a closure on it. I went with a simple snap because I didn't have access to the back of the fabric.
Here's my favorite finishing touch, a fabulous Ginny button!

Wish List Treasuries

I'm really not that hard to shop for.
I don't know how many people who are planning on getting me a gift will actually see this post but so what. I'm also trying out a treasury linking tool, so you can go to all the items instead of just look at a picture of the treasury.

New Hats and Scarves

I've been trying to ramp things up for the holidays, and part of that is creating more things to list in my shop. I've been wanting to list some things that will be easy to make more of when they sell. I decided on stretchy hats that fit a variety of head sizes, so no messing with the stitch count and matching scarves.

I'm still knitting the gray scarf if you're wondering why its not in the picture.
