Laquo; Blue Sky – The Tea Bag Solution. Antiques – My favourite find. Colour – Emily Foden. August 16, 2010 by flohaus. Colour inspiration comes from many different sources and Emily Foden was mine last week. Emily hand dyes her yarns! Here’s how she does it:. She starts by covering up her beautiful white kitchen and white floors with plastic. Emily is very neat. Not one drop went on the floor when I was there. If it were I, a 10-foot perimeter would have to be covered. Wetting the yarn first, she puts i...

Knitting vrock = awesome. real life math in action. Wednesday, January 29, 2014. Almost a week late with a post, but I'm on track with the daily knitting! I'm on to the real patterned part of Harvest Dew now, I made it passed the ribbing. In my last post, I shared all my new upcoming projects to be done with my latest Knit Picks order, and I'm already making solid progress on my Polar Bear Chullo for Slim Jim. Here is an earflap:. And in fact, I have two of them! What's a hexipuff blanket? Tons and tons ...

Knitting vrock = awesome. real life math in action. Tuesday, December 31, 2013. New Year's Rockin' Eve. Welcome to the end of year round up, readers! I've been cramming in a bunch of final projects all this week as 2013 comes to a close, and I've even started and finished a project or two. As of today, December 31, here's what's kicking around my house. Norie was started and finished in two days, because I'm a dork and if I'm not at work, my fingers will find knitting. It's a compulsion. The palm of the ...

Knitting vrock = awesome. real life math in action. Wednesday, June 27, 2012. It's been a great big week of knitting and knitting related activities, and this post won't even cover the knitting part of it. It was World Wide Knit in Public Day on Saturday June 9, what did you do to celebrate? Everyone likes to hear about stuff I bought, so let me satisfy your craving:. My haul from Shall We Knit? Have you heard about Soakbox? I also got a sampler of Soak scentless for just showing up to the fun! I missed ...

Knitting vrock = awesome. real life math in action. Monday, December 22, 2014. We've got a hot crustacean band. I'm winding down another year of knitting, readers, and I'm planning for a knit-filled 2015. There are babies in my future (not my future, someone else's future, but this directly impacts me) and little babies need little knits to keep their little bodies warm and cozy. I've been favouriting baby things like a mad person on Ravelry, and I'm full to the brim with baby knits lust. My list of baby...

Stitchin' Bitch: Sardines on toast
http://vrock-inreallife.blogspot.com/2015/02/sardines-on-toast.html
Knitting vrock = awesome. real life math in action. Friday, February 13, 2015. Back to the knits. I took my double knitting striped set idea and made it into a thing, but I'm not entirely happy with how it turned out. I bought yarn at Shall We Knit? In January, and I was pleased as punch to find clearance baby yarn in exactly the colours I was looking for. Mega score! The hat was a similar story, where I followed a basic baby hat pattern and adjusted for my double knitting gauge (which is a whole lot loo...

Knitting vrock = awesome. real life math in action. Sunday, March 15, 2015. Huzzah for the shopkeep! I want to knit all of the baby things. When I search around on Ravelry for projects, I'm drawn to the itty bitty little baby things, and the cute little stuffed animals and dolls. I'm really into these crochet dolls right now:. They're by lalylala designs. And there's a whole series of them. I'd like to get one of these under my belt before nugget is born so I can hopefully make a whole fleet of them.

Stitchin' Bitch: October 2013

Knitting vrock = awesome. real life math in action. Thursday, October 24, 2013. Look at the size of that nut! I like a good knitting challenge, readers. Here's the back story: I work at a museum, and we have traveling exhibits that come in for 4-8 months at a time. Currently we have a trees exhibit, which is aimed at families and small children, and one of my coworkers asked if I could make her an acorn to use during demonstrations with the kids. Of course I could. Enter the Little Acorn Project Bag.

Stitchin' Bitch: November 2013
http://vrock-inreallife.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Knitting vrock = awesome. real life math in action. Monday, November 25, 2013. The bees are everywhere! Back in September, I spent my morning at Culture Days. At Joseph Schneider Haus. Readers. Ever been? The K-W Knitters' Guild was there in all of our knitting glory, promoting our guild, our craft, and hopefully teaching a few people how to knit. Around 10:30, my morning shift partner arrived with the Guild banner, and I had some company. The day was lovely, it was bright and sunny, and I hope that the ...
