Not one to compete against others, I find it hard to believe others care so little about each other to want to win. I have played board games with a group of people who cared more for teaching the game and strategies over pride of who came in first.

Once everyone felt confident in the game we laughed and encouraged each other. Often the newbie to the game won. What pleasure the whole procedure was. Even when others won.

Two of my favorite games.

On the other hand, I am always in competition with myself. I love learning something new and growing in confidence and control. When I feel I’ve mastered a stitch or game, I know I’ve won

Seriously? Okay. Thanks.

One panel of the Tunisian Crochet afghan after several froggings and recrocheting. It is now as long as my legs. I need to do another identical panel then a double wide of a different colorway between these black and ivory hombre. For those who want to learn Tunisian Crochet, here’s the one I learned
My no-show Sneaker socks are nearing the dreaded heel. The pattern calls for something called a shadow stitch instead of wrap and turn. I plan to run a safety line before starting. If I flub too badly I’ll tink back and do the Fleegle Heel. Again here’s the tutorial I’m following for these.

I don’t think I did the arch 1 by 1 ribbing long enough. But I’ve learned my Continental knitting makes that stitch a lot easier than English (right-handed) ribbing. After much practice I can switch off so neither hand gets too tired.

My next pair of socks will be a stab at Fishlip socks. I bought the pattern. It seems complicated but folks seem to swear by it.

Making Monday


Tunisian crochet Afghan growing.
Decided to make these socks into no show sneaker socks. The pattern calls for ribbing in the instep to help with fit.

Your Friday prompt for Stream of Consciousness Saturday is โ€œsap/spa/asp/pas/PSA.โ€ Use one, use them all, use them any way youโ€™d like. Bonus points if you use them all. Enjoy!

PSA: This day has been dedicated to the following hat. Though I ran out of the colorway of the bottom of the hat, I think the one with brown still worked out. If you want details check out yesterday’s blog.

Made Them Monday


After many mistakes and tinking back to fix these are finally finished. There are a couple threads to hide but I’m proud of what I’ve learned making these shortie socks.

I followed the YouTube for the Fleegle Heel Toe-up Two At A Time Socks. I used ChiaoGoo Red-lace Circular Needles US 8. I started out on the 40″ cables. When it was time to bind off I found it easier to do one sock at a time putting the sock on 9″ corded needles. I’ll share the bind off YouTube, too.
