Two Sharp Sticks

Cocoons and emergence

Dear Eyeknit,Imagine that I am a larva, sleeping in its cocoon, but just beginning to emerge. I like the fibery analogy of having been woven into a cocoon and now trying to wiggle my way out of it. I've felt a lot like that, sort of away from the world and recently, digging and crawling and poking my way back towards it. Let's hope that I emerge as somet... (314 天前)

FO: Hydrangea Scarf

Dear Stuntmother,I had a hankering to knit lace recently. Although there are multifarious lacy projects to be browsed on Ravelry, I decided to use the only laceweight occupying space in my stash. I bought this yarn from Spirit Trail Fiberworks at last year's (2007) Maryland Sheep and Wool. One of my patients works in that booth, and she tells me wonderfu... (314 天前)

Mostly Matching or Practically Perfect?

Dear Stuntmother,Today's title refers to our visit to NYC last Saturday...we stood in line at the TKTS booth and got half-price tickets to Mary Poppins on Broadway. It was absolutely (if you'll excuse the obvious) supercalifragilisticexpialidocious. The dramatic themes are somewhat different from those in the film and some songs were excised and others w...

Party Gloves

Dear Stuntmother,When I received the Spunky Eclectic Fiber Club offering for December, I was stymied. However would I use this rather jarring colorway? (That's not my own fiber, but it looked the same). It's called Party Dress, and was intended to be reminiscent of 1980's fashion. I've successfully forgotten all the horrible things I wore in the 80s, so ... (314 天前)

FO: My Gansey Boy

Dear Stuntmother,William really loves his new sweater. This one was a real collaboration between knitter and recipient. I wanted to make him a gansey using Beth Brown-Reinsel's book, but he chose the yarn (from the stash!), the welt, the initial, and the collar. I must say that gansey knitting, at least in worsted yarn, is fun and fast.Project: Jerod's G... (314 天前)

Guess who came to visit this weekend?

Dear Stuntmother,My Mom's birthday is next week, and I gave her these Anemoi Mittens which should match her burgundy winter coat. Eunny is such a detail-oriented pattern writer. I appreciate that so much--she clearly has thought (obsessed) about each step of the knitting and chosen wisely so that the finished item is just beautiful. Specifically in these... (314 天前)

2nd Annual Birthday Sweater for DH

Dear Stuntmother,So, my husband's 41st birthday has come and gone, but I did complete his gift in time. In record time, I might emphasize, since this one was knitted from start to finish in 26 days. It took him much longer to choose a sweater he liked than it did for the knitting. I'm good with deadlines.Project: Man's Fair Isle Sweater (original name, h... (314 天前)
