....nevermind writing about knitting and crocheting. Mostly I am just getting on with making things in acrylic and cotton acrylic blends. I am still fighting the moths. I think we have them under...

The Thneed was pulled back and decreases changed. It fits and she likes it.
I made a Thneed. Or rather I made a jumper for big sister which big sister couldn't fit over her head. Who the hell knits bottom up raglans? Why did I pay for this pattern? And then do it s...

We've got moths. I don't wanna talk about it.
I am doing surprisingly well with this. I got to the teal band at the bottom and decided to go back up and do the sleeves and the pockets so that when I finish it I will actually be finished. Thi...

This is not because I make decisions like giving up the car, or having 5 children, or home educating them all. It is because I have decided to knit this ! The Still Light Tunic is lovely. It ha...

After all, it takes time away from knitting. And crocheting. And all those other things. But I am going to give it a go again. Let's start with a catch up.

I have this idea that I will organize the kitchen window sill which is behind the kitchen table to have all of our arts and crafts stuff so I can sit with the Babe and do arty things. I know ...
I have managed to do a couple of pairs more. But they seem to take me a very long time. I imagine it is all the crocheting I do while I have socks on the knitting needles. And all of the time I s...

Since it is a new year, and there is all the psychobabble about new starts, I am formulating a plan. It is not about a year of change, or loosing weight, or getting a job, although all of tho...

I haven't been writing much lately, mostly because things haven't been that great, and I don't want to write about how shit things are. :-) But with the date January 1st come renewed hope and exp...

So when 2013 started, I thought it was going to be my year of change. As told in the previous post from 3 months ago, medical issues have been dominating the year and they are ongoing. The arthri...
I thought we were pottering along nicely there for a bit. Oh well. The past few months have been dominated by medical issues. Not traumatic ones, but life changing ones. My hips stopped working...

I seem to be getting my brain back. What you need to understand, is that I am always been a voracious reader. I had a mother who used to say, "Get your nose out of that book and listen to me!" ...

Back in September, I started making a jumper for Al. Nothing too exciting, just an every day casual thing which will probably be worn down at the allotment. I didn't think that much about it. He ...

I'm not very energetic these days. I blog in my head, as if I am living my life for an audience sometimes, but finding the motivation to get my fingers to write things is beyond me for the moment...

Works in Progress But I am talking knitting and crochet here, and I count 17 of them. Sweaters and hats and gloves and socks all waiting to be completed at some point. And all I want to do is st...
The title reflects my feelings of October. It seems that we have done so much, I have been so busy, we've had birthdays and parties and meetings, and yet accomplished so little. There are still s...

I finished The Changeling's jumper. It is so soft and comfy and like a giant hug. She loves it. Thank goodness! But I am supposed to be making two other jumpers, 3 actually, which are all st...
http://wittyknitting.blogspot.com/2012/10/boring-jumpers.html
I am trying to get a couple of things done for the Changeling, who is off to uni in ten days. She doesn't seem to want the things I want to knit though. I am more than halfway through a baggy top...

I am now a Ravthlete. I have partaken in the Ravelympics - Or rather the Ravellenic Games 2012, since the USOC decided knitters and crocheters were deemed inappropriate people. :-) This is wha...
http://wittyknitting.blogspot.com/2012/08/so-what-is-it-that-is-up.html
Not really doing much at the moment. My hands are not really in good shape. My eczema is bad, and my thumbs are cracked and bleeding and I had an infection (sorted thanks to homeopathic remedy) a...
I haven't really finished anything since my last post. Still Zooming along on Gatherings Leaves Shawl, well not really. I have taken a break so I can make things for other people. I am workin...
I'm spending a lot of time being bored these days. I think this is the nature of having a small child, and making yourself available for them all the time. I suppose the other option is to be a w...
So it is April and I am spending most of my free time sowing, and planting, when I can. I suppose I haven't been doing that much, as the weather has been atrocious, but a few things are getting d...
