We're now HERE :-)

I knit a lot actually. It's just mainly secret!!! A lot of Twilight knitting going on and Cat in the Socks! I am so excited for you guys to see this kit. It is too cool!
I actually saw Ysolda's Ripley on Ravelry and just had to knit it. I needed a) something for me b) something quick and c) something I could share!
This fit the bill! I should BO tonight as a matter of fact.
It is made in Extra Squishy in the new kettles. Raspberry is the colorway (you know I love purple!!!)

I'm also knitting the Emerald Isle Cardi from the Fall Knitscene and it is going quite well. I need updated pics because I have a lot more done but here it is so far:

I'm getting Baby Bums Round III, Twilight and Mayberry out this week so I can post photos of secret stuff next week! I'm in love with the Twilight yarn and pattern, I hope you guys like it too!

In case you haven't seen you can also find Episode 3 of Knitting in the Round on iTunes!

Wow, what a week it's been! I've been working day and night to get all club shipments out this week. Bundled Babies, Baby Bums, Sock and Fiber Club AND the Twilight Club! So far there has been great response from it!
I added this months pattern to Ravelry for those of you that are starting right away. I've had a lot of people ask about doing Twilight II since the Twilight Club filled up. I'm thinking on it, I promise.
I finally got my new Fricke Skein winder in. The lack of a winder had dramatically slowed down my production but we are back up and running! I've gotten tons of yarn dyed and skeined the past couple of days, you just wouldn't believe the difference.
Aside from yarn work I have been doing some knitting! I cast on for the Summer of Love Lace socks on Monday and I should say that I am doing them both at the same time and am on the heel! This has been a wonderful pattern. I'm knitting it in Footapy in Peace. Check out my Ravelry page to see photos. Speaking of Ravelry, have you joined our group? If not it's called the KnitFit Yarn Fans. Come on, we'd love to have you!
I'm involved in a new project as well in case you haven't heard. Leslie (from Greenberry House) and I have started a podcast called Knitting in the Round.
So far I'm having a lot of fun with it! There is a lot to learn and improve upon, but I'm looking forward to it. Episode 2 is coming up on Monday!
Check back tomorrow and I'll post photos of the Twilight colorway. I'm really digging it!

Ok, ok. We've gotten a lot of request for round 3 so here we go! The last of Round 1 leaves this week and round 2 is well underway.

Sock Summit is only a couple weeks away! I am so jealous of all you lucky people that get to go. Take lots of pictures!
Even though I'm not going you can still check out my yarn there! Dublin Bay Knitting Co is one of our retail partners that will carry our yarn there. Please stop by and support them!
We are also entered in the Dye for Glory competition on Ravelry.
We had a few skeins dyed up on the website and Etsy but we are unfortunately sold out. We are however offering skeins here on the blog in Footapy and Footsie. These are PRE-ORDERS and will ship within 14 days. They will only be available here until Sock Summit.

Footapy $28.00 Footsie $24.00

This week in my limited spare time I have been trying to organize all of my WIP's so they may possibly get finished in my lifetime. Possibly. So I've been putting them in their own project bag, trying to take photos so I can put them on Ravelry and accounting for my needles. (see this all started with a tantrum because I found 1 size 5dpn. 1! The other 4 are still MIA.)
I even purchased new project bags so the all can be contained!
This got me thinking, how many WIP's does the average knitter have?
I haven't totaled mine yet but I can say that number grew today! Today I cast on the GORGEOUS Hillflowers Stole from KnitSpot and have not wanted to put it down. Excellent pattern. I'm quite pleased at the look. I'm using Footsie in the Nevermore colorway.



I just cannot wait to finish it! Of course their are projects I HAVE to finish but this one has my interest! I also intend on making an adult sweater soon. My first. (yep all socks and baby stuff here!)
So.... How many WIP's do you have and how do you keep up with them all?!
