90% Knitting - Episode 10

ON THE NEEDLES:

• Moody Blues socks, my hand-dyed. Still working on #2
• Wendy's Autumn Dream Scarf, by Wendy Johnson, yarn by Indie Dyer. No progress, but it is still active.
• Slouchy Cardigan, pattern from Greetings from Knit Cafe, by Helene Roux. I'm actually following the mods from Belleepoque's Rav notes on how to do the sweater top down.
• Preemie Baby Beanie, pattern by Karen Everitt, leftover sock yarn.

FINISHED OBJECTS:

• Pedestrian Crossing Cowl, pattern by Melissa Tuttle Sibley, Malabrigo Rios in Indicetia
• Bunny Nugget, pattern by Rebecca Danger, my hand-dyed
• March YOSS Shamrockin' Socks - done only in the sense they are going to be frogged due to excessive stupidity and lack of common sense on my part. Total and utter sock FAIL. :(

ON THE WHEEL/IN THE DYE:

• Still spinning the camel on the wheel while I wait to start the Knit Girllls SAL with the Tempted fiber on Friday.
• Bought a fabulous new spindle - a Trindle - at Homespun Yarn Party.
• Dyeing galore to try and restock the shop for this Friday's update. This week, there will be some worsted and fingering self-striping, some light fingering vareigated and some Falkland top, as well as a few more bags. The shop will update this week between 4-6 p.m. eastern, NOT 5-7 as I said in the videocast! Argh!

RESOURCES/RECOMMENDATIONS:

• CraftSanity magazine again, since the video got goofed up last week right as I was talking about it.
• Japanese Garden Shawl drawing winner - Marigayle!

10%:

• Happy birthday Lala/Laura from The Knit Girllls!
• This month's Quickie KAL drawing winner is...announced in this segment of the videocast! ;)
• This week's Quickie KAL pattern will be Preemie Baby Beanies by Karen Everitt. I chose this in support of Melissa/Meliabella's Sweet Caroline KAL on the His & Her's podcast group.
• Homespun Yarn Party was so much fun last Sunday! Really enjoyed meeting those of you who introduced yourselves to me there! :)
• Thank you SO MUCH to everyone who came and made opening day of the shop a huge success last Friday! I really appreciate each and every one of you!
