As I write this post, it’s a cold, rainy, dreary day in central North Carolina. Blueberry’s upstairs in her bed, trying not to drift asleep while she plays with her socks and her stuffed animals. I just brewed up a nice hot cup of peppermint tea. It’s a good day to snuggle up inside, preferably…
Hello, my knitting friends! I hope you had a very merry Christmas! Over here in the Knitting Daddy household, it was a good time of visiting most of our relatives and enjoying time shared together. Time isn’t the only thing we shared, as Blueberry picked up a cold somewhere along the way and shared it…
It’s been a busy, busy, busy week in the Knitting Daddy household. So instead of the typical blog entry, I just want to take a pause and wish you all a Merry Christmas! The other night, we all went out for pancakes, and Blueberry donned what she has taken to call her “Santa Hat.” This…
It’s been another busy week (aren’t they all?), and it’s getting closer to Christmas! It’s been so busy, that I’m a day later than usual in getting this blog out — I hope to be back on the Monday morning schedule again next week. This week, I’m going to talk about some pretty awesome knitted…
How’s your holiday knitting coming along? Mine’s fine, but only because I don’t really have any specific holiday knitting goals. Sure, I’m doing holiday knitting, but pretty much as the mood strikes me. Earlier this week, a friend asked what would make a good “starter kit” for a new knitter, and I had a great time…
Another week has flown by, hasn’t it, dear readers? For those of you in the United States, I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving. For those of you in the rest of the world, I hope you tolerated all the “Happy Thanksgiving” wishes thrown at you from all the folks in the United States. I…
Hello, again, my knitting friends! The last week has simply flown by, and I ended up doing a surprising amount of knitting. With United States Thanksgiving coming up this week, it’s going to be a short week at the office. We’re visiting family for Thanksgiving, but I’m not yet sure if I’ll be doing the…
It’s good to be back home a bit after spending a week away on the fishing trip a few weeks ago. I’ve received a ton of comments on the Knitted Fishcloth Dishcloth, both virtually and in real life, and I appreciate all of it. I think it’s a funny story, and it’s nice to see…
This week, I was on my annual fishing trip. This was the third year, and I go with my father-in-law, brother-in-law, and uncle-in-law (is that a thing) to Cape Lookout, NC. We spend about a week surf fishing and it’s lots of fun. This year, we caught fish every day (which really beats the one…
It’s been another great week, and I can’t believe it went by so quickly! It’s been a busy week in my non-knitting life, but I have managed to keep an eye on some knitting-related things throughout the week. Thanks to everyone who’s been in touch over the week with comments and feedback on the blog.…
