The Internets Win Again

So problem solved! I want to thank TECHknitting for the answer to the separating stands issue. I did a random Google search with the hope that someone else has had the same problem I had and had the solution for it. To say I found a gold mine in the TECHknitting blog is an understatement. For any knitters new and old I highly recommend this blog. There are excellent written instructions and wonderful illustrations that actually help. I could write and entire post praising this blog... It's going to be my go to for any issues I have in the future Thank you TK!!!

Year of Projects: Week 13

I've started my "new" job/contract. I've worked for this company before, just not at this site. I brought a few projects with me, but I quickly ran out of yarn. I've been working on a dishtowel.

I got them off the blockers and took a couple decent pictures outside in good light. So here they are all finished. I used the smallest size of the three blockers. The middle size stretched the fabric too much. Blocking really evened these out and even though I didn't toss these in the dryer to spring the super-wash Mal Rios back into shape it sproinged back all on its own. I need to weigh these yet so I can figure out approximate yardage used, but my guess is its not really much of either of the three colors. I hope to do at least one more pair of these. I have so many little mini left-over skeins, its a great pattern to get those used up. I made homemade pizza on Wednesday. I use this recipe in my bread machine for the dough. It calls for a teaspoon of a

Year of Projects: Week 33

I started a pair of socks for myself. I'm not good about checking gauge for anything. So very quickly I realized the sock was looking very small. I decided to keep going and make them for Liara instead. I had her try it on after I turned the heel and it fit her perfectly.
