Oh - I've been thinking about knitting my nephew a denim jacket all weekend! Do you have a pattern in mind, or are you making it up yourself? Thanks!

Doesn't it feel good to "reward" yourself with new yarn?! I find that it works really well for me...a little bit of new yarn does wonders doesn't it?!! I love the stripes, although I've never heard of Crazy yarn before...hmmm, I'll have to keep my eye out for that one! Thanks!

Hi! I love your blog! Also, what sock pattern are you using? I might have to pop up to A Good Yarn to grab some "crazy"! I have just begun to knit socks... and I am addicted, but am using the same pattern over and over. I love your pattern! :) I love reading your blog each day... makes me smile!
have a wonderful Boston day!

I dig those crazy socks!

I am loving the Denim!! I'm almost done with my Tasha bag. Beware of the dye rubbing off on your fingers - the wonderfu yarn makes it woth having blue hands and needles! :o) I have that sock yarn, too - it looks great knitted up - you've inspired me to cast on for my socks using it!

I love that Simply Noro book, I made Agnes from it which was a great pattern to work from. What are you planning from it? I'd love to have the yarn and patience to make the throw, it just looks gorgeous..

Wow, DK weight socks do go quickly! I just saw those being cast on for not much more than 12 hours ago!

Have a blue day!

just love your crazy sock, could you please confirm me the yarn color ?
thanks for your blog it's a pleasure to read every day !

Nice socks! Going to make that Tasha bag too. Really soon! Looking forward to seeing how it goes.

You didn't think you'd be coming home empty handed did you? So which do you think you'll turn your klaralund into? That sock yarn does look good. Treat yourself :)

Ooh, there are many lovely patterns in Simply Noro. I like the Earnshaw pattern. Can't wait to see what you choose!

Me too! I bought a bunch of denim yarn from elann last year and finally decided to knit my son a denim sweater from one of the "Miss Bea's" books. I'm going to have some leftovers and I can't stop thinking about using them for Tasha. That yarn is some really neat stuff!

DK weight socks do go fast! The Koigu sock for my sock pal has been going so slowly, but this sock is going to be done in no time.

The Crazy yarn is from Idena and the color is #05 (they have it at the Knitting Zone!). I'm making this sock with my sock class and the pattern I always recommend is Yankee Knitter #29, Classic Socks for the Family. It's for all sizes, in three gauges, with three ribbing suggestions. I'm doing a 2x2 rib along the leg and top of the foot.

I'm pretty sure that I'm going to use the Silk Garden from my Klaralund to make Zillah. I'd be adding sleeves though. And I still have to find the right coordinating yarn. That would leave several balls worth leftover for a bag or maybe some socks!

I just love the crazy stripes on that crazy yarn! Looks like some fun knitting.

as a current sock student of alison's...i must say that not only can she knit...but boy can she teach...thanks for a great class

I like the new pattern you are making with your Klaralund. I am turning mine into a vest (I think it's called gesta) and I am hoping to finish it by Tuesday for "Tuesday in Knitalong Day"! I am loving it and I am so glad you helped me decide to rip Klara!!
I like the socks too and will have to look up that pattern you recommended. Heels scare me but I am thinking maybe an afterthought heel would be right for me. But first, must finish my other WIPs!

Klaralund looks so good on you... :( Sock is cute. And I have some Rowan Denim that I have thought about Tasha for...

cute sock! I love those colours together.

Yah Tasha! You will LOVE it! My blue did not rub off on my hands, but I think the darker blue will. I can't tell which one you have. Just be prepared! :)
And are those stripey socks for YOU? Is that what you are saying? YOU? STRIPES?
I'm just sayin'!

Two spring jackets for the boys and it's almost March...you're the only knitter I know that could pull off such a feat! Love the socks - what yarn are you using?
