No Knitting in the Dark

Posted by Brye Lynn on Mar 25, 2010 in Knitting

The past two nights have been “Family Movie Night” at my house.  My husband brought home a bunch of movies home and I felt obligated to sit with him and watch.  Since I was working on my new knitting project, I couldn’t have been happier.
I have heard of stories of people knitting without looking.  I [...]

This week I picked up the most wonderful yarn from a new yarn shop close to my work.
They don’t sell online yet, but check out their site  www.fourpurls.com.  It was heaven walking in there.  IT IS A REAL YARN SHOP.  OK – I will go more into it on the podcast, but this weekend I [...]

Socks are finished!

Posted by Brye Lynn on Feb 24, 2010 in Knitting

OK – the picture may make them look good, but they are not without their flaws.  The right one is too big and so when I made the left one, I did the instep shorter; fits perfectly.  On the left one, I forgot to do the decreases when I was stitching the instep, so I [...]

It really wasn’t that hard.  If you have been thinking about trying it – I say go for it.  I was listening to a Knit Picks podcast that encouraged me to try it.  The speaker was talking about new knitters and the projects we choose.  Scarfs can be the [...]

I picked this pattern because I thought it was easy and the directions were clearly explained.  [...]

Knitting Update

Posted by Brye Lynn on Sep 11, 2009 in Knitting

I should have had the scarf finished by tonight, but that is not the case.  I did get slightly bored this week and I cast on some socks.  I found a simple enough pattern on Ravelry that will give me a good start and hopefully teach me the basics of knitting socks.
I have never worked [...]

Knitting Update

I have recieved several emails about my knitting so here is an update.
I have finished about 15 inches of the scarf.  It is not going smoothly, I repeat NOT going smoothly.  But I am not discouraged, I will prevail.
I found a great app on my iPod call Stitchminder by Quilts2go.  It is great at helping [...]

Fiber Friday

Posted by Brye Lynn on Jul 31, 2009 in Knitting, Uncategorized

Today, I started to teach myself how to knit.  I took a trip to Hobby Lobby and JoAnn’s.  I picked up the “Taught Myself to Knit” kit – the same kind I got when I taught myself to Crochet.  I also picked up a few free sock patterns and 4 skeins of yarn.  The yarn [...]
