How I spent my Christmas Holiday!

I put a bunch of my wool yarn into the little Cedar Trunk my mom got for me for Christmas to make room for all my knitting books in the shelf- the wool on top is to make Rogue and under it is Paton's Wool, Lion Wool, a little Cascade and some Wool of the Andes from Knit Picks...




and I finished my Booga Bag! Woohoo - I will admit I made the cord with my Clover Wonder Knitter - I just have not figured out I-Cord and I just wanted to get it all done!


Felting is still on the agenda sometime soon! I promise!

Maybe I *can* knit socks...

These certainly look like socks :) though he is looking a bit lonely!


Hmm what is that peeking out from behind Fuzzy Foot Uno?


Looks like Mr Fuzzy Foot has a new friend now


Happy Friendly Fuzzy Feet! Woo!



Next Chapter - FELTING!

I almost forgot..

I love my new Ball Winder :)


So I have been sewing - I made this lovely needle roll for my DPN's a week or so ago! I think I will be making more of these...




I also participated in a journal swap recently - see the lovely rose journal that I received above - the journal I made is below


It was a fun swap - though I stress a lot that my recipient would not like what I made her - she did - I'm Glad - more pictures soon - I have another Fuzzy Foot ready to be cast off the needles any moment :)

Knitting Row Counter Program - Updated

'Tis the season for gifts so I asked my programmer DSO to make a cool little gift for all my knitting friends - a row counter that you can install to your computer - it's very simple but at the top you can put the number of total rows you want to count (such as rows for patterns or cables) and when you have completed the number of rows indicated it resets for you - it also removes rows if need be - it is as easy (easier I think) to use as a Clover Kacha-Kacha counter and it seems many of us knit computer-side so it might be a handy tool! Anyhow it is free! You can download the installation program HERE.

EDIT: The program has been updated with some different labels so you might want to download it again!
