Seduce: to win over; attract

Yarn seduces me with her siren call. "Pick me! Pick me!" I am hopelessly enchanted by yarn and am delighted by the endless choices.

WIP Wednesday

Surprise!! I have not been lollygagging around the pool.  I have not been sleeping the past two weeks of silence.  Nope.  I've been busy. 
Busy with grandkids, busy with work, teaching, and yes, busy knitting and stitching (with a little reading thrown in)

Update on the Seed Stitch Baby Cardigan

Update on Needlebook

and yes, an update on the Santa Club "S"

I'll try to be a little better about blogging but I am finding there are less hours in a day to get everything done.
When did that time change occur?!!

WIP Wednesday

First up...progress on the seed stitch baby sweater
I have started on the left front.   (and yes, that is a bread tie re-purposed as a yarn bobbin holding the yarn tail)  I should be an expert seed stitch knitter by the time I am finished, lol.

A new project... no it is not a bikini... it is a head band
It is the Hera Headband designed by Sarah-Hope Parmeter from the Sock Yarn One Skein Wonders book.
I am using US4/3.5m and elsebeth lavold Silky Wool in a beautiful purple color (I know, my camera and lighting makes the yarn look blue).  There are FIVE charts to this headband.  I have completed Chart A.  It's not difficult, just has lots of twisty stitches.

And this week I started a new needlepoint project
It is the "S" in Santa.  A Raymond Crawford design.  Once a month we'll get a letter to spell out SANTA.  I hope I can keep up, lol.  So far I have the window pane done.

So what are you working on this week?
