The Next Best Thing to Buying Yarn















Knitpicks had a sale ... and kept reminding me via email that they had a sale. Guess my weekend is all booked up now.

How many fiber-related books do you all have? I was going to 'fess up, but I just went and counted and I am embarrassed to go first!

I am also working on socks ...


From the Toes Up a-la-carte book. Pattern is the "Scribble Lace."  I knit one through the heel, then put that one on holders and started the second one. I know it seems odd, but I really do avoid Second Sock Syndrome that way!








Buh bye! Have a great weekend!

  2. er, I have those books. I may have a slight problem too.

    I like your sock knitting method. Maybe I'll try that on my next set of socks.

  3. I have almost all of my knitting books loaded on Ravelry, so I took a peek, there are 342 items, most are books and magazines. It doesn't feel like that much!

  4. Every time I see the Fleece and Fiber Sourcebook a huge smile comes to my face. :-)

    I have a "few" fiber related books. :-)

  5. Funny that you succumbed to Knit Picks emails...I had to just keep hitting delete, but glad you scored.

  6. I've only done that once, on a pair of socks with heavy lace cuffs and plain feet. It was a nice trick.
