Twisted Strands Episode 111: Hook Happy

Welcome to Episode 111!

Works in Progress:

Textured Acorn Beanie by WeasieWorks test knit, dk weight mystery yarn that I swapped for, will be donated to Emily's hats for Hope. Going to pick it up again as the Lovely Weasieworks has redone pattern to make it clearer and I want to give feedback.

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.

Welcome to Episode 110!

Works in Progress:

Textured Acorn Beanie by WeasieWorks test knit, dk weight mystery yarn that I swapped for, will be donated to Emily's hats for Hope. This is going into hibernation. Don't like knitting it as I'm getting so frustrated by the stitch pattern!

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.

Movies for knitting!
Dark Shadows was pretty entertaining. I know it got panned by a lot of people, but I liked it.
Tip jar
When creating a garment out of cotton, remember that it stretches. To maintain the shape you want, choose a pattern that has seams along the shoulders and sides to keep the fabric from sagging.
