Muntu Stitches

Been busy moving (sorta), watching tennis (U.S. Open) and burning data off my computer (I download plenty…shh). I really have been knitting. See, I finished these socks a while ago but just haven’t posted.

Today’s post title is from my Wordpress’ greeting that changes everytime I log in to write a post and it happens to fit perfectly. I’ve been absent it seems forever but this summer has been very busy and I like that. Here are a couple of things I’ve been up to lately. […]

I started out the summer by casting on for socks…these also happen to be socks for my Sockapalooza 4 pal! I love the pattern (from the Cider Moon gals) and the yarn. I honestly wasn’t so hot for the colours until I made more progress with the sock. No pooling at all. […]

Is it summer already? I’m really looking forward to enjoying this summer, somehow it feels different and I’m determined to make it good. It feels like the last several years that I’ve been hiding out, I dunno…as if in preparation for something important while I went to school and struggled to get by. […]

It’s been over a week and I still feel like I haven’t tied up the loose ends. The hold-up was mainly because I’ve switched computers. Buh bye windows…hello Mac OS. Anyway, I received a refurbished iBook courtesy of my geek boyfriend, upgraded and definitely a lot more compact than the hunk of […]

For some reason, these colours really made me think of watermelons. Yum! And despite the pooling, which I didn’t mind at all…somehow it added to the charm of knitting and wearing these socks. It was a joy […]

I figured out how to magic loop!
I used the turkish cast-on method.
I was confused, but I did it.
Almost everything I am knitting right now is green.
I love green!
Is it really only Monday? Sigh.

Time seems to fly when one is having a good time. I really haven’t been up to much except relax and do some knitting. But I have finished socks!

This was such a mindless, quick knit. And of […]

Project Spectrum is sort of helping me get inspired on what colours to knit with it. I can safely say buh bye to the the Feb/March colours after finishing these socks of last night. Yay!!!

I thought I was having blogging issues but it turns out it’s a plugin…and I really don’t know all that much about this all. That doesn’t excuse my lack of blogging though…been meaning too but then all I seem to do is sit and read other people’s blogs and I have been trying to […]
