Trying something new

August 5, 2022 laughloveknit2 Comments

I had to frog my shortie socks. The fold over hem was too tight to comfortably go over my heel. However I immediately cast on for a new sock with simple K2P2 ribbing. I did about 4 rows of knitting just over the first 32 stitches to make the back of the sock slightly higher… Continue reading Trying something new

Towards the beginning of July I got a strong urge to cross stitch again. I looked for my green tea kitty but could not find it. Turns out I was looking for the wrong project bag as I found it a couple weeks later. But by that point, I had started two new projects. The… Continue reading Stabby Stab

Homeschool year 5

August 1, 2022August 1, 2022 laughloveknitLeave a comment

August 1st means the start of our homeschool year. Because we are all Autistic ADHD, I'm always looking for ways to update our schedules to make them work for us. In addition to getting the kids on a better routine, I will also be able to get on routine and have more focused time for… Continue reading Homeschool year 5

Spinning Saturday – hot mess express

July 30, 2022 laughloveknitLeave a comment

Tour de fleece started great, I was spinning every day and making lots of progress. I didn't take into consideration how busy we are in July and that proved to be my downfall. Between the teen getting the big C, thankfully no one else in the house did, and Peanut's summer camp, I was completely… Continue reading Spinning Saturday – hot mess express

TdF day 14

July 14, 2022July 14, 2022 laughloveknit1 Comment

I fully intended to blog yesterday but that didn't happen. My chronic pain decided to flair yesterday and I needed to spend my spoons in other places. I was able to finish plying my combed grey cormo singles. Out of the 6 bobbins of singles, I had very little left over. Since I'm still combing… Continue reading TdF day 14

TdF day 12

July 12, 2022 laughloveknitLeave a comment

Yesterday afternoon I decided to start playing my grey cormo. I guessed that 3 plies would give me a fingering weight yarn and I'd end up with 2 giant skeins each with 5-6 ounces. Turns out I ended up with more of a lace weight yarn but I'm hoping it will bloom a bit in… Continue reading TdF day 12

I took the weekend off from blogging and did very little spinning as I got caught up in a different project. It's not ready to share yet as it's still in proof of concept stage but I'm very excited with the progress. Today I'm spinning up the grey combed cormo fleece. We had a very… Continue reading TdF day 11

Not much happened yesterday craft wise. I knew today would be busy so I got up and finished the 1st ounce of Jacob top. And that's really all I got done today craft wise. Until next time, laugh often, love deeply and knit the day away!

TdF day 7 – injury

July 7, 2022 laughloveknitLeave a comment

I had plans to spin a bit this morning at middle kiddo's OT. But apparently if you keep leaving the battery in after you're done spinning, you'll find out it's dead next time you go to use it. Thankfully, I also had knitting packed in my bag so I wasn't sitting there with nothing to… Continue reading TdF day 7 – injury

TdF day 6 + stash gains

July 6, 2022 laughloveknitLeave a comment

Yesterday was a great spining day. I was able to get quite a lot of the Leicester Longwood spun up. I'm taking a break from that today to spin some new fiber I got in the mail last night. This is a 4oz braid of Jacob wool from Napa Valley fiber. I am in their… Continue reading TdF day 6 + stash gains
