Knitting in my Backyarn

My blogger is broken.  Not because I haven't posted in a while.  But because it wont let me leave comments on anyone else's Blogger ...

When I last posted about how my new bag ideas usually come out in the summer I had an idea brewing around in my head, ready to come out when...

My newest pattern has been hibernating since June. I'm not sure why. It was fast, fun, and easy to knit. The pattern probably can fit on...

I'd like to be able to say that the reason I have been quiet is because I have been squirreled away busy working on my new bag pattern. ...

Ok, so the Ninja Turtle didn't get you going. I understand. It's a very specific target audience and I realize you are not a five ye...

OK, well I didn't manage to get pictures but I did manage about 10 minutes at the computer. So here's a little knit update... I'...

So I'm having a great day even though is it the second day of flat-out rain. I don't even care that the kidsters are climbing the w...

I am happy to report that there were no knitting under the influence incidents last night and that all people, pets, and fibers are safe. I ...

No, I haven't turned into a pirate (although kidsters would probably get a real kick out of that). I thought knitting was supposed to be...

Yes, I am still here. I haven't had much to type about since all I have been doing is swatching. I managed to get the second one just ab...

I never do it. Why would I? I make felted purses, why in the world would I want to or even need to? But I have never felted cables before. I...

February was the pitts. I realize that I was not too happy last month. Who could blame me, with the endless cold and snow? Combine that with...
