New Year’s Resolutions

It’s that time of year ago; New Year Resolutions.  No, I’m not going to do the traditional one of losing x number of pounds this year.  That has failed time and time again.  No, this year my focus is a little different, mostly knitting related.
1. Conquer the fearsome cable.  No longer will I be afraid of it [...]

Snow, Bad Presents and My First Sock

It is still snowing outside! It has snowed every day since December 23 in some shape or form. Christmas Eve was the big dump of 12″, Christmas was just a trace amount. Boxing Day was a light dusting of the fluffy stuff. Yesterday was about an inch of more of the [...]

A Yarny Christmas

It was a wonderful, yarny Christmas this year at Chez Deniasha. The wonderful, amazing husband got me this for Christmas:

Two Days Late and A Dollar Short

If anyone was awaiting the Etsy shop update, I’m sorry. Etsy, I’m convinced, does not like Apple Safari. It will just not load my pictures at the moment. Even when pictures are uploading, it takes forever and takes at least 2-3 times to go through. Why? I have not a [...]

A Girl Just Wants to Knit

My husband is out of town for a video shoot this weekend. Great, I would have the whole weekend to sit down and get some serious holiday knitting in. I went to the grocery store, bought some junk food so I won’t have to cook or clean up and rented all three the [...]
