I Found My Knitting!

I have been going crazy this last week trying to find my partial sock. The last time I remember seeing it was on the passenger seat of my truck. Then DS got in and moved it out of the way. That's the last I remember seeing it. I've torn the truck apart three times, searched my knitting stash, my bedroom, both living rooms, and then all of them again. Needless to say I've been out of my mind; it's like loosing your child in the store; that feeling of panic and helplessness. For sure it must have got knocked out of the truck in some cold wet parking lot somewhere.

Well last night I was sulking and doing some tidying up. I went to put away the plastic bag from the fabric store with the scraps from the tote bag project. Just on a whim I opened up the bag and there it was! All purry and just as happy to see me as I was it! So here it is reunited with the finished sock all ready to be worked on. WHEW! I must have shoved it in there to carry it in the house when I got out of the truck.

Tabitha very wisely decided to hide in the linen closet until the whole ordeal was over.

I'm glad you found it. I've lost a brand new circ that I got spec'y for DD and it disappeared the DAY it came home from the LYS. =( I think the 2yrboy R.U.N.D.O.F.T with it =)

cool color 4 sock, tho!

Doesn't it make you crazy when you misplace something, yes Tabitha was very wise to hide just as my kids know to when I can't find something ;)

My Bionic Gear Bag - Pattern Review (long and pic heavy)

The Completed Bionic Gear Bag EDIT: Link to the second bag I made almost seven years later   Well I finally finished my Bionic Gear Bag .  What can I say?  I laughed, I cried... This pattern makes a very cute bag and overall I am happy with it.  On the other hand I did run into some hiccups and perhaps my timing could have been better with purchasing this pattern.  The Bionic Gear Bag was designed by Sally AKA Ripstitcher .  She had purchased a similar pattern from Craftsy , made it, reviewed it on her blog, designed her own version that met her needs better, and put it up for sale on Craftsy.  The internets went crazy and  major drama ensued . Now I will be honest and say that the first pattern caught my eye in the first place because I saw Sally's review of it.  When I then saw the design Sally came up with I thought it would better suit my needs, so I bought it.  Unfortunately when I bought it the drama was at its height and e...

New Look 6735 - The Dedicated Post

Image
I have decided to put up a dedicated post for New Look 6735 .  Because I have made so many versions of it, it really doesn't require a new post every time I make one.  This will make it easy for me to track my projects with this pattern.  I have made this up now as the 3/4 sleeve tee, the cap sleeve tee, a sleeveless version and the cardigan (although heavily modified).  The fact that I have certainly got my money's worth out of this pattern makes the cheap bastard in me very happy!  So here we go (with newest versions on top): With narrower neckline Blog post Blog post Blog post Blog post Blog post Blog Post Blog post Blog post Blog post Blog post Blog post Blog post Blog post

Holiday Knitting

Image
I never did post a pic of the finished Christmas knitting. Yes, this is what took ALL that time to knit up (I must be a really slow knitter!). I've got two pairs of socks from Briggs and Little wool, an angora scarf, and the pièce de résistance, the Wallace and Grommit hat! DH asked me to buy the pattern (a child's sweater pattern) when I saw it on Ebay, but he doesn't wear sweaters. Then a couple of weeks before Christmas I had an ahah moment and used the pattern to make a hat. He's very proud and doesn't take it off for anything! Well, maybe when he takes a shower, but that's about it. Then DD wanted a body hugging sweater out of the never-ending cone of eyelash wool I picked up at the Spinrite tent sale. So I've been busy the last week making this for her. I'd have her model it but she's been down for the count with a bad case of the flu and I don't want to make her move unnecessarily without my umbrella handy. This is the cone before ...
