Yet Another Knitting Blog

I've stalled with projects. The slip stitch hat is languishing because I don't like anything I've tried for the top. The last one was too flat. This one is too...stripey? Not slip stitchy? I don't know.

The second sock for my friend Laurie stalled until I could find the book that I've used to knit the other one. I don't have my own "sock recipe" yet. I knit a swatch for another sock with some yarn I bought in Phoenix. It's very thick after knitting with socks on the little needles.

I tried looking for yarn for the baby sweater but the most local Local Yarn Store didn't have much in the baby yarns and everything they recommended was too bulky. The biggest YLS is closed for vacation until the end of next week.

Last but not least, the gorgeous book by the Shackleton Sisters doesn't have yardages. What's up with that?
