clothes closets in our new apartment are somewhat smaller than the ones we have in our current apartment so even though we are in the process of going through our clothes and will be sending a lot of our old clothes to the salvation army we are still going to need some additional storage for our clothes tim suggested getting a second chest of drawers for our bedroom instead i figured we could use the armoire we have to put the extra clothes unfortunately the armoire is where my stash was stored on saturday we went shopping for items for the new apartment and i found these containers the two big containers hold all of my full skeins of yarn the partial skeins fit in the small canvas cube i already had the small container holds all of my needles crochet hooks and notions i think this works really well we will keep it in the second bedroom we got the keys to our new place on sunday because our old apartment is so cluttered right now we brought everything for the new apartment over there on sunday that means that stash was the first thing that was moved and it s 20 miles away right now i kept my two wips here at the old apartment i thought of keeping a couple of other skeins here in case i finish either of my wips but then i realized that if i finish either of those wips it means i m spending too much time knitting and not enough time packing or cleaning sometimes i just like looking at my yarn though so it s weird to not be able to do that posted in uncategorized leave a comment up in the air posted by andi on march 27 2010 i have a set procedure for dealing with my knitting when i travel i always take socks preferably one that i just started so that i won t need scissors while i m gone because i don t take them the socks are always on bamboo double pointed needles i put everything i need into a project bag that a friend made me for christmas that fits nicely into the front pocket of my carry on suitcase i take the project bag out as i get on the plane and put the suitcase in the overhead bin there is generally a lot of knitting time while the rest of the passengers board and while the plane taxis to the runway sometimes i can get ten or more rounds on a sock knit during that time depending on how complex the pattern is then when it comes time to take off i stop take off can be bumpy so i usually wait until the ride smooths out before i start knitting again i always fear that in the speed or bumps of take off i will drop something and not be able to reach it on tuesday night everything was going as planned i was knitting while other passengers were boarding and while our plane was taxiing to the runway i could tell the plane was turning to take off and i was in the middle of a needle i tried to knit really quickly to finish the needle before we took off i was successful but because i was working so quickly i lost control of one of the needles on the last stitch and dropped it in the crack between my seat and the seat next to me just as the plane started speeding down the runway i tried to bend over to find my needle but it was very uncomfortable i figured i would wait until after take off after a few minutes i started looking again and i couldn t find my needle i thought that perhaps it rolled back during take off so i asked the people sitting behind me if the needle was on the floor by their feet but it wasn t what could i do now i didn t have an extra needle i considered putting all of the sole stitches onto one needle and continuing on but after my butterfingers move earlier i didn t want to take any chances i put my knitting away and took out a magazine i started contemplating how hard i would look for the needle after landing what if it still wasn t under my seat would i wait until most of the people cleared out of the plane to try to find it was it worth it should i just buy a new set of size 1 dpns fortunately i didn t have to worry about it the gentleman sitting behind me found it as he removed his carry on from under my seat i got my needle back but this incident got me thinking maybe it s time to make the switch from knitting socks on dpns to knitting them on two circular needles maybe not all the time but at least on the projects i take with me while traveling if i had dropped one end of a circular needle all would have been fine because nothing would have fallen on the floor i also want to make skew which won t work well on dpns so i ve decided i m going to buy some bamboo circular needles even though i contemplated getting some cheaper stainless steel ones i haven t decided if i will buy them before i move or not as i don t think i would get started using them before that posted in uncategorized 6 comments crawl to the border posted by andi on march 20 2010 i haven t posted much about the afghan i ve been knitting since november because it s a gift and i feared that the recipient would see it i m relatively certain however that she does not look at this blog and if she does oh well so here we go i m making the tree of life afghan for a wedding present the wedding was several months ago i really hope the newlywed couple likes it i tried to find a pattern and color choice that would be meaningful to them and maybe once the afghan is done i will explain it all it took me several months to knit the body of the afghan i bound off last week and it was an amazing feeling now all i have to do is knit the border and sew it on that s all ha i ve read on ravelry that it takes a really long time to knit the border great and i hate sewing i considered creating some other sort of border where i could pick up stitches but it won t be nearly as nice it s a beautiful border with a leaf motif here is what one pattern repeat of the border looks like isn t that cute i ve now done three repeats i reckon i need to do about 70 more ugh after i have a few more repeats under my belt i may sew some of it to the blanket and sew as i go that will make the sewing so much more bearable posted in uncategorized 1 comment fo candy corn socks posted by andi on march 18 2010 pattern slip stitch heel basic socks by wendy johnson yarn sophie s toes in candy

candy corn socks i had the yarn held for me at yarncon because i was arriving later on from the airport and was worried that the color would be sold out and i wanted it so badly posted in uncategorized 1 comment on this day of green posted by andi on march 17 2010 my boyfriend enjoys the socks i ve knit him unfortunately for me they have looked like this and this white and plain i bought him some dark yarn which he was receptive to but he still only wanted plain socks then i showed him my skein of tofutsies i thought he would be interested in that yarn because of the chitin he s a type 1 diabetic and taking care of his feet is a priority imagine my surprise when he said he liked the color i already had i showed him other colors i could buy but yes he wanted lime green socks not only that he s allowed me to skip the plain stockinette stitch or ribbing and chose the mock cable socks by wendy johnson so not white not plain who is this guy in my boyfriend s body so on st patrick s day i m starting to knit green socks that aren t for me posted in uncategorized leave a comment fo exfoliate posted by andi on march 3 2010 pattern exfoliate the dalek cloth yarn lion brand
