Marginally Domesticated: Keeping out of trouble
http://marginallydomesticated.blogspot.com/2014/11/keeping-out-of-trouble.html
Adventures in half-assed domesticity. Thursday, November 20, 2014. Keeping out of trouble. In early October, I had knee surgery - nobody's idea of a good time, but I thought it would be the perfect opportunity to get a jump on all my Christmas knitting. After all, this was how I spent 10 hours per day:. No brainer to get all that knitting done, right? Despite this, I did get a few things started:. This pattern is the Iced Aqua Scarf. Good intentions and the road to hell. September 19, 2016 at 2:59 AM.

Marginally Domesticated: Holiday roundup 2014
http://marginallydomesticated.blogspot.com/2015/01/holiday-roundup-2014.html
Adventures in half-assed domesticity. Wednesday, January 14, 2015. With the holidays now behind us, I can post what I made as gifts in that compressed post-surgery period where I was supposed to be all caught up on everything and ended up making absolutely nothing for anyone else. For my college best friend, J, a Capitan hat in a moss green:. I also did another Capitan for my 14-year-old cousin, S. Here it is, unfinished:. I finished the Men's Winter Wheat Socks. By Donna Seex, for my husband:. By Lorna ...

Marginally Domesticated: Project fails
http://marginallydomesticated.blogspot.com/2014/05/project-fails.html
Adventures in half-assed domesticity. Tuesday, May 13, 2014. And it didn't fit. The pattern is called Sand Dunes, by Phyll Lagerman. In other project fails, I had nearly finished the winter cardigan I started in November:. The yarn is Alpine Lake by Tucker's Woods, a dyer out of Connecticut who is discontinuing production of these yarns. Which is a total shame; I totally adore this yarn. Anyway, this is a shot of the back, the only thing I currently have done. Why, you ask? May 15, 2014 at 1:31 PM.

Marginally Domesticated: April 2014
http://marginallydomesticated.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Adventures in half-assed domesticity. Wednesday, April 9, 2014. I have started several sweaters for myself in my career as a knitter. Last spring/summer I made myself a short-sleeved shrug in a beautiful shade of purple:. Still on the needles. Unfortunately, I did not pick up enough stitches when I went to knit the 2-inch ribbed trim, so it flops unattractively when I put it on, so I need to unstitch it, rip out the trim, and pick up the correct number of stitches. But I have finally finished a sweater!

Marginally Domesticated: November 2013
http://marginallydomesticated.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Adventures in half-assed domesticity. Thursday, November 21, 2013. Last Saturday afternoon I took a class with Amy Herzog. Amy's the author of a book called Knit to Flatter,. And her premise is if something doesn't look good, it's the. I currently have two separate cardigans on the needles - my birthday project from last year, and another one I couldn't resist starting with some of the yarn I bought at the Fiber Festival - but I have put her book on my Christmas wish list and plan to make one of her patt...

Marginally Domesticated: Something besides socks
http://marginallydomesticated.blogspot.com/2014/08/something-besides-socks.html
Adventures in half-assed domesticity. Tuesday, August 19, 2014. Ok, admittedly I am currently working on a pair of socks, because I am pretty sure I must have one going at all times:. This pattern is called Winter Wheat Socks. I am also making use of the 1800 yards of Madeline Tosh lace-weight I bought back in April to knit Viajante. I love it, it's gorgeous, it's taking forever. Meanwhile, I took a trip last weekend up to Halcyon Yarn. Mostly mini-cones, with 2 large in the back. Place mats in progress!

Marginally Domesticated: Projects of questionable value
http://marginallydomesticated.blogspot.com/2014/08/projects-of-questionable-value.html
Adventures in half-assed domesticity. Monday, August 25, 2014. Projects of questionable value. I finished my very first adult-sized sweater, and I hate how it looks:. I call the shrug the second-most ridiculous thing I have ever knit, because this is the most ridiculous:. In process - photographed outside Halcyon yarns, Bath, ME. You may be asking yourself. Patriotic chaps, made with wool and fun fur. "Why on earth would you knit patriotic chaps to begin with, and then out of those materials? Married sin...
