10,000 Stitches Podcast, Episode 7 - Snowing in the South

January 20, 2016

Links to things I mentioned:

  • Melisandre socks
  • Basket Weave Rib socks
  • Twisted socks
  • Fish Lips Kiss heel
  • Ribbed socks KAL thread
  • Knitting Expat Podcast (be sure to check out her January Sockathon!)

Question of the week:

What do you like to do for entertainment while you knit?  I typically watch videos on Netflix or Youtube, or listen to podcasts.  Got any favorites to recommend?

If you want to see more of my knitting, feel free to befriend me on Ravelry or Instagram.  

There's also a Ravelry group that can be found here, if you enjoy that sort of thing...

Sometimes, I take pictures of things...

Getting the year started with a new podcast! It’s a short one but I’d rather be recording shorter episodes more often than just not recording at all... Not a ton of new stuff if you were watching vlogmas but I do talk about our first KAL of 2019 so check that out if you want to join! Links to YouTube, my blog, and the Ravelry group are all in my profile. :-)
I talk more about this in my vlogmas today (link to YouTube in profile if you want), but I’m taking a bit of a different approach to #makenine2019... I want to knit down my stash and make room for new stuff to come in, so I picked 9 items from my stash and I am going to make an effort to use them in 2019, preferably earlier rather than later. I don’t have plans for all of them yet, but here’s what they are, going left to right starting on the top: 1: a bunch of 50g sock yarn skeins which will become short socks 2: Huntsville themed yarn - no project plan yet 3: orange hand-dyed sparkly sock yarn - probably going to be a hat 4: hand-dyed BFL sock yarn - no plan yet 5: hand-dyed BFL sock yarn - another Head Sock to be gifted away 6: 2x hand-dyed BFL sock yarn - knee socks! 7: 2x hand-dyed BFL sock yarn - more knee socks? 8: hand-dyed MCN - Northlights hat 9: hand-dyed gradient mini set - Viajante or some other similar cowl
Nope, no theme at all in my 2018 #topnine... it’s been a crazy year (in case you don’t watch my podcast, I just relocated to Alabama) but a good one for knitting. I’ve published 3 patterns, refined my skills for dyeing yarn, and really started to hone in on my knitwear aesthetic. Here’s to 2019!
First time out into the world for my knee highs!
