Wedding Mittens
2019 is most definitely the year of mittens. I started out the year with my Luffe mittens. Which turned out super cute and warm. I also was proud that I used all stash yarn to make the mittens. Sadly, the mittens only made it a few weeks before I lost one. Despite checking at all […]
Then Life Gets in the Way
Somehow, out of nowhere, it is May. I’m not really sure how all of that happened, but it did. The last couple of months all sort of blur together for me. Hopefully, things are settling down now. Starting the beginning of February and up until a couple of weeks ago, I was busy slogging through […]
Knitting Weather
The past couple of days it has been cold here. Like we haven’t had school all week (today’s Thursday) and my bank was closed yesterday cold. The high yesterday (yes high) was -12, without the wind chill. I’ve been home with Kiddo for the past two days (thankfully, my mom helped out Monday and Tuesday), […]

With Just Inches to Spare
I’ve finished the outer layer of my Luffe mittens. The closer I got to the end, the more nervous I was. I had one ball of Telemark yarn in black (and of course, it is a discontinued yarn) and I was worried about running out. I ended up having enough, with just this much left […]
Jogless Stripes
I’m making good progress on the Luffe mittens. In just a couple days, I’ve knit the first mitten through the increases for the thumb gusset. I stuck with my original plan to knit the outside of the mitten in grey and black stripes. I’m making these out of Telemark, a now discontinued sport weight wool […]
Project Planning
Since finishing the puppy stuffie for Kiddo, I haven’t really done much knitting. I’m working on the heel of my primavera socks, but progress on those has been pretty slow. Instead of actually knitting, it seems that I’m spending much more of my time right now thinking about knitting. I spent some time cleaning up […]
