Twisted Strands Episode 124: The holiday knitting is taking off!

Welcome to Episode 124!

Wrapped up-Lisa Souza 100% wool Earth Birth colorway. It's more of a fire color, I think. 256 wraps, a little thick and thin, but mostly fingering.

Brighton Sock by Rhian Drinkwater in Out of Step Dyeworks Mutilated colorway.

Moved these projects into the vault:
Morticia MKAL by boo knits Jaipur Lace by Wandering Wool

Stuff and Junk

I'm finally caught up on American Horror Story. Despite my early misgivings, it is turning out to be super. Really enjoying it.

I really enjoyed the first episode of Sleepy Hollow and will continue to watch. Still watching the Supernatural Series.
I watched Little Britain abroad and thought it funny, but not as funny as Little Britain (in Britain.

The Halloween stitch along is where you can knit, crochet, weave, or cross stitch something Halloween related. There are 2 threads in the group, which you need to be a member of, one for chatter and inspiration, and the other for FO's.

Stuff and Junk

Don't forget the CAL We are doing with Chaotic and Crafty, you have until the end of August, mostly because I'm slogging happily through mine.
Dr. Who, I've now watched Don't Blink and the episode after, where they introduce this mean dude who calls himself the master. I don't like him.

Simply Knitting 109 Must make that beach bag and at least one cactus! Don't forget the CAL We are doing with Chaotic and Crafty, you have until the end of the month. Dr. Who, I've now watched up to Don't blink, but haven't garnered the mentality to watch what is supposed to be an awesome episode.
Thanks so much for the donation, Robin, much appreciated!
Thanks, Tinygeekcrafter, for a copy of your lovely Black Mamba knit jewelry design. I'm sure I have something special to make it with. Tinygeekcrafter is the host of the Knit Me Happy podcast, I recommend her, as she is a sweetheart.
