Wednesday is almost over but that’s about when I start working on my projects anyway. I’m currently rotating between three projects. I get bored doing the same thing over and over so it’s nice to be able to work on …

My inner geek finally shows itself
So on my About page I described myself as a “wee bit nerdy and geeky” and that you would figure out how so eventually. Well here is the proof, my Gryffindor Quidditch broom. I belong to a Hogwarts group …
Why do I always do this?
And so another one begins. I don’t know why I continue to do this, but I just started yet another afghan. Let me see, that makes six in various stages, I think. See, I can’t even keep track of what …
Finally finished!
A while back I posted my woes regarding a shawlette pattern I was testing. Well it is finally done! The designer has already published and released her pattern and I wasn’t quite done yet. I feel super bad about it. …
What’s been keeping me busy and quiet lately
I feel like I haven’t gotten anything accomplished for a while now. I’ve been working on testing a shawl pattern for someone and it’s been rather time consuming. It’s not the pattern, it’s me. Instead of using the suggested weight …
Another finished object or two
Guess I’m a little late posting my latest finished items but there they are. Finally finished the afghan I had tension issues with which I posted about here. This one turned out nice and even. I tested this pattern for …
Will I Never Learn?!!
One of my many in progress projects is testing an afghan pattern for a designer. So here I am almost done and decide to spread it out on the bed to see exactly how much longer I need to make …
A Few Spring Finished Objects
I’ve been alternating between several projects over the last few weeks. I’ve also been doing some pattern testing, but unfortunately it’s all hush hush and I can’t post any pictures until the patterns have been released. So I feel like …
Finished Object Friday
Another Friday, thank goodness! ((Oops, started this yesterday and went off to do something and forgot to finish)) Love the end of the week, problem is the weekend is way too short. I have to agree with my son when …
Not so good at maintaining even tension
So a week or so ago I posted my efforts and reconstructing a thread coaster that I liked but couldn’t find the original pattern. Since then I’ve made two more coasters. Using the same thread, the same hook and same …
Reconstructed Thread Coaster
Some many years ago I made a few thread coasters that I just love. Every now and again I’ve wanted to make a few more as the others have gone missing over the years or I’ve wanted to give as …
Finished Objects
Been working on a few different projects this week by testing some patterns for designers. I did manage to finish up a couple more blocks for my daughter’s afghan. I figure I only need two more now and it should …
Frogging…I hate it when I don’t pay attention
I really, really hate it when I don’t pay attention to pattern instructions and have to tear everything out back to where I initially made the mistake….can you say “rrriiiibbbbitttt”? I’m supposed to be testing this shawl pattern and half …
What I finished this week
Looks like I missed FO Friday and I have a few things to share. I’ve been working feverishly on finishing my daughter’s afghan which I’m making out of 12″ squares. I’ve actually been working on it for over a year …
Finished Object – Fri…ooops Saturday!
So it’s a day late but I wanted to show off the afghan that I finally finished, about a year and a half after starting it. This was meant for a long time family friend for Christmas in 2011…yeah, it …
