the blue blog archives: tuesday is knitalong day

More weasley Christmases! MA finished her weasley in time and her little one looks great in it. Co-hostess with the mostest, Jenn finished hers too and SHE looks great in it! And get this, Tania knit a second weasley in the THREE days before Christmas! Hope we get to see some pics of her weasleys on her new blog (hint, hint). And there's even more super cute mini-weasley ornaments to see, this time from Stacey. You gals rock! Check out Tami's gorgeous weasley almost done. And poor Orli's had a little catastrophe with her weasley, but is back on track now.

Hey, sock knitters not in the sockapalooza, Memoija is hosting a fabbo long sock knitalong you might be interested in. And for beginners who weren't quite up to knitting socks for someone else just yet, I've heard talk of a "learn to knit socks"-along at Karmicknits. Check there later this week for details!

And in other knitalong news, I may just have to sign up for this knitalong. Can. Not. Resist.

Oh don't resist just make them tiny in sock yarn and they can be part of the tea set. I'm not so sure about the whole hat and bag thing but a little plate of food doesn't sound so bad. And thanks for the info on the Learn to knit socks along. I've been knitting for years and just havn't made the plunge into socks. It may have to be a resolution this year.

this sock swap seems is going to be so fun, I just can't decide whether to join the beginner group or not. I'm not a beginner, but I never have much confidence in my finished socks.

Hi Alison! I cast on for my no-sweat pants this weekend. No more formal knit-a-long. But I'm excited to get these done!

You are too funny! I can't wait till you start that purse. It will be egg-sactly what you'll need to work on. What a fry-up!

I saw that kal the other day for the purse and thought about signing up. I'll have to see if it's really something that I think I could pull off, I usually am more about blending in :)

Guess who finished Weasley #2...? Pictures up tomorrow! :-)

I'm hoping to get modelled shots this weekend when I gift them.

I hear you about the Fry Up. It's just too weird not to want it.
And thanks for the publicity!

I am hoping to go to Everett on Thursday to get the Weasley pictures from my brother's camera. Snow permitting, I'll post them as soon as I get them!! I still can't believe when I woke up today that it was only 22°! How can it possibly be this cold in Seattle?! brrrrr...

Yee-ha...over the long weekend I had (since we took a couple of days off and headed to Tibirius) I was able to finish the front of my 1st Weasley! AT LAST. I'm weaving in loose ends now, plenty of those and I've also casted on for the last sleeve.
