Knit Crochet Blog Week Day 2

Here we are at day two. The prompt for today is:
Write a dating profile for one of your past finished projects.

I'll start out with this; I've never written a dating profile since I was lucky enough to stumble upon my husband at an early age and never had to jump through the veritable hoops that some other people have had to.

Hi all, my name is Cassis. I'm a spunky little shawlette who was knit up in the lively city of Syracuse. I'm only three months old, a nice little catch fresh out of the cradle ;) I'm just a small crescent shawl, a scarf if that's what you prefer, but I'm pure Merino so I'll keep you warm in a cool situation. I'm also the proud owner of 987 cobalt beads. I may be small, but I pack a sufficient amount of bling; perfect shoulder candy for that night out.

I love to go out, be it on the town sprucing up the go to LBD, dressing up that blouse and jeans. (I am the perfect shade of blue after all.) Or just wrapped around the neck for warmth and style on a cooler day. Don't be afraid to get out and have fun, I'm amade of superwash Merino. I'm a pretty easy-going piece of knitwear, I don't have too many dislikes, maybe just the color red... Where do I hope to go in the future, lots more parties that's where. Of course being a shawlette, I could settle down, hang out in the rocker on grannies shoulders, but why waste these good looks on staying home? Take me out and show me off baby!

'Til tomorrow, Happy Crafting!

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'm combining two patterns to make it. I'm using the premise of Stay Put Kitchen Towel with the stitch pattern of Lizard Ridge Dishcloth . I, of course, don't have a picture yet of the towel. I took my book of postcards and colored pencils with me. I've colored in two of the postcards in between knitting. When I got home at the end of the week, I had two packages waiting for me. I received an angel package for one of the swaps I did a few months ago. The cowl and headband are made from handspun yarn. They are very soft and pretty. My angel got me a lanyard set perfect for fall. The black kitty looks alot like Jangles and the flowers are very fall colored. There's a pair of snippy style scissors. I love this style of

Year of Projects: Week 11

I'm actually updating on a Sunday for once! I don't have too much to update, so it'll be short and sweet. I had mentioned that I washed and blocked the Drops of Spring Mitts. 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

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.
