Catching Up

Ok.  Finally took some pictures of all the craziness~

First:  The gorgeous coppery WooBu for the Traveling Sweater. I’ll be in a car for well over a dozen hours this weekend so there will be plenty of time to make some progress on this. When I get tired of working on it I’ll switch […]

A flurry of activity

Gosh–I’ve been in a high productivity mode lately.   Must be the new organizational system.  I LOVE the new organizational system and I’ve added to it.  So in addition to the stockings that I need to get cracking on, Sparky has another colleague with a new baby girl who needs booties, and I’ve picked up another […]

Getting Organized(ish)

I’ve been a little uninspired lately.  Not completely sure why.  It’s Spring and the days vary between gorgeous and sunny and gorgeously stormy.  My baby has become a toddler.  The Sparkle Girl has started walking/running and getting into everything.  I swear that her arms telescope out to be much longer than it seems physically possible.  […]

New Year’s Knitting Goals: Color Me Fabulous

So, I started a post the other day but then Little Miss Grabby Hands thought my keyboard was the most interesting thing in the world and kablooey the long post was gone.  My fault because I didn’t save along the way.  And it was a little overlong anyway.  Let’s try this again!

The New Year is […]

Booties and a Pretty Thing

Now that it is getting chilly and wet here in the Pacific NW the fact that this kid can’t keep socks on has become a bit of a problem.  I got her some shoes, but somehow she gets those off too.  So I made some booties for her.  Instead of ten stitches across the sole […]

In which Soupygirl adopts a UFO, attends the Sock Summit, Breaks a World Record, and Buys Yet More Yarn

It’s been a little while since the last post, but that doesn’t mean that my fingers have been idle~  I’ve been working on a sweet little dress from Twist Collective called the Little Liza Jane dress.  I’m making it in 3T in a color called Peacock.  It’s nearly done so I’ll post a pic and […]

Follow up

Where to start?  I suppose with follow-up from the last post.

I finally loaded pictures of the heirloom baby blankets.  I feel so blessed that we have these for our little girl.

    This is the blanket my DH’s aunt crocheted for him when he was a baby.  We picked it up this past weekend […]

Cute & Cozy Baby Hat

When I was digging through the stash in the giant bin in the storage unit I found some really soft microfiber in lime green.  Where did it come from?  I have no idea.  I don’t remember buying it.   Maybe my mom sent it as part of a bunch of yarn from a yard sale?  It […]

Finished Projects!

YAY!  I finally finished the Kidsilk Haze shrug.  It’s gorgeous and fits perfectly.  It’ll be nice to wear as it gets colder.  Fall has definitely fallen here in Portland, so I’m sure it’ll get a lot of use really soon.  Here are my attempts to take pics of it myself.  No easy task.  Added bonus–you […]

Thanks Jacqui at This is Knit

I wrote to the site from which I purchased the problematic pattern and received a very nice, very prompt response.  The designer is on vacation, which is why I never heard from her.  They will pass my feedback on to her and hopefully post a corrected version soon.

They gave me a refund, which is very […]
