About Me:

have been surrounded by knitters/tatters/crocheters/sewers all my life and knew how to do all of them (Jill of all.......pretty good knitter) - decided to add an another dimension of fibre works to the family....had the wonderful fortune of being able to study weaving under the tulege of Stan Zielinski. Marriage, babies, divorce - you know, the classic saga led me away from weaving ~ still have my loom (8 harness Gilmore) but now I am back to knitting furiously! My husband calls me a "knittomanic".
Have a wonderful, supportive husband, 2 fantastic daughters and 5 grandkids. Also have rescued border collie/great pyrneses mix and a F1 labradoodle, tuxcedo cat and senagal parrot and lots of dust bunnies when I'm in the throds of a project!

Kit was Mother's Day present. Going much faster than bag! LOL! Guess that will be graduation present with goodies stuffed inside and bag will be for b'day!
Hope you have a good holiday and take care!

Those socks were a copy of a vintage pair I bought on eBay. I copied them but my version I called "Texas Wild Flowers". When I make my stripes I don't use their knitted blanks, I walk around chairs with the yarn in my driveway then tie sections and dye each section. My son says a 440 yard hank is 1/4 mile so I get my exercise at the same time. And no, I did not get your comment, must have gotten lost along the way.
Hope your feeling better real soon.

At 3:09pm on May 4, 2009, Janie said…: Oh my, where are you stuck? Once you finish the side you have to pick up 240 sts from provisional caston, which to me is the hardest part of this pattern. I picked them up with a size 1 needle and where it won't ravel back I clipped the waste yarn as I go. I wish I was close enough to help you. Let me know how you're stuck.

I chose to do the alternate colorway and I am not going to put the white in the center. I will just continue with the grey. These bags are so additcing I just want to keep on going. Now I'm considering making the second blue and second tranquil. Knitpicks doesn't have any other kits right now that interest me. In September I have to give one of these to my daughter, her birthday. I will have a hard time giving one up. I'm sure she will choose one from the Warm Palette.
