Since I finished a couple of things I of course needed to cast on a few things. I know I could have finished something in my WIP pile but I didn’t want to. Besides, other yarns and projects were calling to me.
I cast on for these before SPA:
The yarn is handspun from Spunky Club Celebration. I knit on it at SPA quite a bit and then promptly set it aside for other larger projects at home. Though I could use some new socks.
These were both cast on this past weekend after finishing my projects I blogged about Monday:
Sprout in Ella Rae Classic.
A simple top down raglan in Twilleys Freedom Spirit. I couldn’t pass up this yarn any longer. I cleaned out The Knitting Experience of all they had in this color. I thought of making Wicked but I actually swatched and didn’t like how the yarn looked in the crossover pattern.
And a little administrative note:
My website Database has walked off and left me all alone. The website looks as though its working but I cannot process anything. If you need to order something, please email me directly. If you ordered anything after 12 noon on 3-4, I never received it. Hopefully this will be fixed soon. Once it’s fixed I’ll make sure to change the large note on the front page.
You have a nice case of caston-itis. I love the colors you are using! I wish I could pet those sweaters. I hope your database comes back and has a good explanation as to why it was out past curfew
Oh wow… I love the celebration socks! I so need to get my felted clogs going since I’m using my Celebration as the accent color.
Wait!?! Are we Sprouting already? I haven’t picked out my yarn. Help!
Hey, love your blog. Where did you get that cool dpn needle/sock holder??? I am a sock knitting fanatic and would love to get one (or a few…). Thanks!

Cool sockie holder thingie! I’m working on my own design for one…hmmm…may have to put a “sample” in the mail to you ;-) I so LOVE the ladybug – it’s a dream! I do have one non-urgent question about it – have you used the double drive? What is your best way to get the band nice and tight? I like lots of *pull* when I spin. Thank you so much! The smallest one also thanks you – she’s keeping Mr. Lendrum in her room now :-D
Yikes, hope your techno-woes are fixed soon. I fear I am becoming addicted to your roving.
Pretty, pretty! I like to knit green anything. Yay, green!
(P.S…I don’t think regular e-mail is working. Trying to get ahold of you about, yes – you guessed it…the type of van Boogie Dad drives!)
The Twilleys Freedom Spirit looks yummy. I bet it will look great.
Good luck with your website.
