The 80's?

2010-01-10T23:59:00.002-07:00

Who knew the 80's would be back. I honestly thought that that was the decade that fashion went waaaay wrong. But I have to admit there is one aspect of that fashion era that I am intrigued by. I think that the leg warmer thing is kind of cute. I am thinking that I would like to knit my daughter some cute little leg warmers to wear with a skirt and some cute little flats.

Sooo Cute!

Why Do People Knit This Stuff?

2009-12-08T12:36:00.005-07:00

Don't get me wrong. I love to knit. I could knit all day long, but there are some things in this knitting world that I will never understand. Like...

The Knitted DNA strand? The knitted car antenna cozy?

The Beer Bottle Sweater Cozy?
A Knitted Human Heart?

A knitted Motercycle cozy?

A knitted Beatle Cozy??? What the???

I didn't think it could got any worse than the Beatle cozy...

A knitted tank cozy?

Who on earth has time for this stuff???

Note the cute little pom pom hanging from the tank's barrel...

Braided Scarf

2009-11-02T10:31:00.003-07:00

I saw a scarf very similar to this at Target the other day when I was shopping with my hubby. I thing it's super cute. I could see doing this with some very large needles and making it very chuncky. Maybe with multiple colors in the same color family as well.

My Sister is having....

2009-10-27T16:47:00.003-06:00

a BOY! This is so exciting because she has three girls and one boy. So now my nephew will have a little bother. Yeaya! So I guess that means that I need to get the boy knitting patterns out and hurry and finish the pants I am making for my son. I also want to make some little mittens for my baby boy... Oh and a sweater dress for my daughter... Oh and a hat for my oldest son... oh the list goes on and on... If only there were more of me....

On the Last Leg

2009-10-22T11:38:00.003-06:00

ha ha! Get it? I know. Bad joke...

Aren't they turning out cute though? I tried them on my son and they are perfect. One leg to go and I will have a pattern for you. I know that I was using an existing pattern, but I had to change a lot and it was just not working correctly.

Making Progress

2009-09-30T17:37:00.004-06:00

I have been working on these pants for a few weeks now and feel that I am over half way done now. Here I am at the park with my kids-one of the few times that I can knit without feeling too guilty about neglecting something.
Waist done... Legs to go...

Hung Hem

2009-09-20T20:37:00.005-06:00

A Hung Hem makes a great finish to any project. On the pants I am making, it's also used to make a casing for the elastic/drawstring in the waist. This is similar to a three needle bind-off (Just don't cast off).

I am kind of embarrassed to be the one in the video, but I couldn't find a video online that shows you how to do this. Plus, the way that I learned how to do it is harder than this way. It's not as hard as it looks on the video... It was just difficult to see what I was doing through the screen on the camera. If it's not clear enough just leave me a comment and I will try to clarify.

Cute Pants

2009-09-18T22:13:00.006-06:00

So I have decided to make these cute pants for my son.

I am doing them in green and brown and I hope they turn out really cute!

Oh! Also, I just ordered a bunch of knitting needles online that I am way excited to get. They are bamboo and were so cheap! I got both single point needles and double point needles. I can wait to get them!

What To Knit Next

2009-09-15T22:48:00.004-06:00

I haven't really knitted anything since I had my baby three months ago. The last thing I knitted was this blessing outfit and hat for my new little guy. It turned out pretty cute, but I learned an inportant lesson on this one. Check your gauge! It is important. Anyways, I am starting to get the itch to knit something. My sister is having a baby so I can definately do something there, but it would really help if I knew if she were having a boy or a girl. So I need something for in the meantime. I was thinking I could knit white blanket for her... Any Ideas? I might have to just start something for one of my kiddos. Oh no! Not something for one of my kids! AAaaahhh! :)

I Knit Therefore I Am

2009-09-15T21:24:00.002-06:00

I love to knit. It is a fun past time, I love giving gifts to people that I made with my own two hands, I love the challenge of trying a new pattern, and I love the feeling of accomplishment that I get when I complete a project.
