Busy Week! More To Come

When the week gets busy, some things drop. This past week, there has been a lot of non-knitting activity going on around the Knitting Daddy household, and what gets dropped is a full Knitting Daddy blog post.

The past several days, I’ve been sick. Fortunately, we’ve managed to keep Blueberry from getting sick, but the sickness…

The Ravellenic Games

Ahoy, knitters! I hope you had a wonderful week. For those of you new to the Knitting Daddy blog, welcome! To those of you returning, welcome back! My goal is to have a new blog entry posted every Monday morning (Eastern US time), but every now and then, that slips. Like this week. I was…

Yarn Bowls

Howdy, knitting friends! I’m so glad you’re back. Or, if this is your first time checking out the Knitting Daddy blog, I’m glad you stopped by. I’m going to talk about yarn bowls today, but before we get into that, let’s take a look at what’s been going on in my knitting world the past…
