The two-at-a-time rule is kinda on hiatus.  Just for a while.  I did finish up my socks (pic to follow when I unearth my camera).  They are super cute and fit perfectly.
So, that freed up a slot, and I put my mom’s doilie in the rotation.  The other project I should be working on is [...]

I have someone coming up next weekend to buy my wheel.  That’ll free up some space in my apartment, especially since I moved to a smaller apartment.
I’m not sure where my camera is packed, so I can’t take any pictures of my new spindles (two new Bosworth’s) and the socks I finished.
Hopefully, I find my [...]

New project

I’ve had the initial twitchings of startitis, but since I’m not allowed to work on more than two projects at a time (type discipline into the search box if you don’t know what I’m talking about), it has been frustrating.  Because the energy of startitis doesn’t naturally move into a desire to hurry up and [...]

I haven’t even sold my wheel yet, but I’m adding to my spindle collection.  Check this out.  It’s a Jenkin’s Turkish Delight that I bought from Spunky Eclectic.

You may be wondering why I bought a turkish spindle, especially since I my other Jenkin’s spindle is listed for sale.  Well, I am intrigued by turkish spindles.  [...]

But yesterday, I finally figured it out.  My next project in [...]

A mishmosh of stuff

Damn batteries
I figured it was time for another post, and I got my camera to take pictures of my socks-in-progress.  But my batteries are dead…AGAIN!
I bought rechargeable batteries, and it seems like I can only use my camera once before they are dead.  I really wasted my money on those damn batteries.
Still disciplined
Anyway, I’m still [...]

It’s hard to be disciplined

I want to hurry up and knit my socks and my EZ garter-stitch blanket, because I really want to start a new project…the Pimlico Shrug from Knit 2 Together.  I got the book from my library, and just as with most knitting books, there are only a couple patterns I would want to knit, but [...]

Argh, socks!

So, due to my new discipline, I can only work on two projects at any one time.  I’m on the third piece of my EZ garter stitch blanket, which is almost done, then just one more piece and then the seaming.  My other project is a pair of socks that were languishing half done.  I [...]

I succumbed

I am still plowing through my EZ garter stitch blanket that I mentioned two posts ago.  I’m still really enjoying working on only a couple projects at a time.
I also realized that I missed spinning, so I started spindle spinning some pink fiber I bought from Black Sheep Gathering in June with a new spindle [...]
