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…
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.

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…
Hi, friends! As I embark on my adventures in knitting blogging, I’m glad that you’re along for the ride. I’m not entirely sure what direction this adventure will go in, and I’m always open to your feedback and suggestions. For now, I hope to use this blog to talk about the knitting I’ve been doing…
computerI learned how to knit in June of 2012, a few weeks after my daughter (we’ll call her “Blueberry”) was born. Blueberry was born at 30 weeks, two-and-a-half months early. She was a tiny baby — two-and-a-half pounds — and as a result of her premature birth, she spent five weeks in the NICU before…
