On the Needles
I'm making mine using 6 skeins (425 yards of)
Debbie Bliss Alpaca Silk Aran that I got on sale at my LYS a long time ago.
I'm on my 5th skein 1 week in! Love how quickly this is knitting up.
Mitts of my own design using Opal sock yarn
Finished 1 (except for the thumb). Need to cast on the second
Wicked Smaht Sox with the Wicked Smaht self-striping yarn by Emily of Fancy Pants Fiber Etsy Shop
Another pair of Stripy Socks with Paton’s Kroy.
Brainstorming
I'm starting to the holiday knitting bug.
I really like these Pleated Ballet Flats by cocoknits.
I also like this Loofah or Washcloth pattern by Jen Kobrick
Can't wait to have the mental capacity to start my Twigs and Willows Cardigan
Life in Focus
I talked about a Photo Tour of the North End of Boston I did with two friends.
We started out with an exercise using Shutter Priority to freeze the action of the water. It worked well for this, but I've still had a hard time replicating this with other non-steady motion.
View of the Zakem bridge from the Rose Kennedy Greenway
Events
Down Cellar Studio Sweater KAL

Cast on July 15 or later. Finish and post FO in thread by the end of the day on 10/15
Adult sized sweater of your choosing- cardigan, pullover, whatever you like...
Come chat with us over here.
Greenway Open Market - I'll be going on August 31st
The Greenway Open Market is open on Saturdays from May 25 through October 26, 2013.
It's early but I'm excited for NY Sheep & Wool in Rhinebeck NY in October and SPA in Maine in February.
Crafty Adventures
I was fortunate to scrapbook with some of my very best girlfriends a couple weeks ago. In an attempt to get "caught up" on my scrapbooking, I am employing these cool Project Life supplies- a system created by Becky Higgins
We also started decorating our guest room. Eventually it will have a travel theme with some handmade art and decorations from our favorite vacation spots. This new quilt will tie things in nicely.
On a Happy Note
Knitting is my happy place. Especially when life is stressful.
Also enjoying the new season of Project Runway.
A happy note for you!
Tune in for a 25% off discount code for Brenda Castiel’s beautiful patterns.
