Knit4Many's Blog (113)

 Thanks to everyone who came to my Sock Summit Party. It was so much fum to see all those great socks and fiber. Hope everyone who actually went to Sock Summit had a wonderful time. I am so looking forward to reading all the blog posts from those who went.

Now I would imagine with an event like Sock Summit everyone will be on a sock binge for…

Hi everyone! Hope your week is going well. Mine has been a busy one. Running here and there in my life in progress. Nothing to terribly exciting but the necessary life stuff. So we'll skip to the more fun stuff.

First congrats to everyone for completing their TdF goals. If you didn't complete your goals congrats on great spinning anyway. The pics on the Team KP were awesome!!

In the spirit…

Ever have a hard time writing that first sentence in you blog post? I do sometimes. Especially since I am trying to be more regular with my blogging again. Well now that I have shared that random thought and got a few sentences out the way. Lets talk.

This week has been all about the spinning and a little dyeing. It amazes how many yards, pounds even of fiber that as been spun and plied on this TdF. I so wish I was able to spin as much. These are not only spinning wheel spinners but…

It is still Le Tour de Fleece time but in an effort to keep posting more and playing catch up. I thought this time I would share my FO of socks. Its been a while since I've done a sock parade race. So on your mark, get set,go!!!

First place FO race winner! This stripy little sock number from KP tilt-a-whirl kit. Knit with my KP Nickle plated…

Has it really been three months since my last blog post?! Jeez talk about falling behind. Goodness I've missed hanging around here. I so need to catch up in SAL, and few other KAL. Not to mention my slow moving CLiC. LOL! OK so this is what I'll do. I"ll show you quick ( this is a spontaneous post ) what I've been up to this week and then slowly fill you in on what's been on or off my needles the last three months. My lip ( life in progress), spinning ect.... Lets try this shorter more often…

Goodness. I went into my draft to see what blog I was working on a couple of weeks ago. Here I had these pictures. I remember now. I was going to blog how after writing in my last blog post about my UFO plan that it lasted only 24 hours before casting on something new. Hehe.. I can't help. Anyway these are two washcloths that I knit out of some Simply cotton in Marshmallow. I LOVE this yarn. The other is out of Comfy Sport.…

Well here it is the blog post I have been putting off. Not totally on purpose. Neck pain and life once again got in the way of my knitting world. Feeling better today so no time like the present to face..the UFO's!

Yep there they all are. Except for my pi shawl. Which is sleeping and will come out to play someday.…

What did I do before I became a knitter? Seriously. Here it was a few days before my co-workers birthday and I needed a gift. Now with all the cold and flu that hit my household the last couple of weeks. My knitting time was not as much I would have liked. So out to the stores I go. Hours I looked from store to store trying to find a present. The whole time thinking I bet she would really like some thicker socks. Nope I tell myself this person is going to think more socks? I just gave a her…

Nothing cheers up a morning like seeing a gift from me in use. :D

 If you are wondering why you are seeing two blog post from me on the same day the answer is simple. The first blog post was meant for last week but I got sick and this blog post is for this week and I'm still sick. I figure might as well post while I can. I know I said I would talk about UFO's but change of plans. Plans always change when one is sick. Don't they?

So here we go. My answer to getting my knitting fix when sick. Start a new project. What?! Yep my answer is start a new…

Yep the sock bug has bit me hard. Last blog post I shared mostly all the socks I knit for the holidays except for little man's Most Basic Kid's Sock. It was knit in KP Stroll in Merlot.

What I did was I…

HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!

Jeez I haven't post its seems like forever. Then again isn't that always the way? Took much to do and want to knit,spin and never enough time. Well today I am making the time for a sock parade. Since that is what I have been knitting for the last couple of months. I couldn't post about it sooner since I didn't want to give away any surprises. All of these socks have been knit with Knit Picks yarn. So let the parade begin!

First up are these fun sock I…

OK we are just going to jump right into things. This was going to be for Wednesday but I finished it and so I clicked the publish button. Who knows it could be Wednesday when you read this or you get two posts in one day tonight. Its mainly playing catch up so hopefully my blog post will not be so long. Then maybe it will be easier for me to post more often without having these long time lapse between posts.

First the update.…

Can you see that? I tried so hard to take a good picture of it. This is the best I could do. See that? Yep that is our very own dear friend Cheryl Waters!! Squeal you know you want to. I did.
