What have I been doing?
I didn’t mean to be away so long. April was a lot of stress and anxiety, and I didn’t knit. I don’t seem to find knitting relaxing when I’m stressed out. I did do a lot of reading. May gradually got better, and I started …
Knitting! Plus some gardening, cocktails, and whatever else strikes my fancy.

Twisted Flower, Hybrid Cables and Febrarch
First and foremost, let me thank everyone for all the kind comments about my Minimalist Cardigan! I really appreciate all your responses, and I read them all. I’ve been very busy, which has limited my blogging, emailing and knitting time rather drastically (sob!), so I …
January Socks: Finished (in January, really!)
I did finish the Chili Pepper socks in January. 11:25 p.m. on January 31st to be exact. I told M I just couldn’t screw up the Sock Pair a Month in 2008 (started by Kelly of Kelp! Knits) in the first month. So, he left …
Joining an excellent Movement
I just blogged yesterday, but so much has happened that I must blog again today. First, a big THANK YOU, to Sallee a.k.a Knitnana for awarding me an E for Excellent Award. I had no idea anyone found my humble little blog “excellent,” but it …
New WIPs: the small projects

A FO and a Hemi-FO
I have been very remiss. Last NOVEMBER, Jean of Golden Purl sent me a wonderful single knitted sock, and although I did thank her immediately, I did not share the sock and the glory of Jean’s knitting with all of you. It is quite a …
A Sockish Meme
Thursday I read the Turtlegirl’s sock meme post and then went about my day. Saturday I read her Friday post, commented, and Cristi promptly sent a reply part of which said, “Did you see Thursday’s post? You might want to read it.” I read it …
Sock Stuff
I finished knitting the sock for my pal! I wrote the pattern (and checked it twice)! I made stitch markers! I boxed it all up! I forgot to photograph it! I could cut through the mailing label and the packing tape, unwrap things, but I …
Cable Sock
I know I haven’t been blogging much lately. Things in the mind here at Molecular Knitting have been a bit bleak this autumn. I didn’t even knit for about a week. But explanations would be dull, so let’s leave it at that. Wing a good …
Whipping Through the WIPs
I got home late today, and I have things to do, but I also wanted to keep to a WIPs on Wednesday post, so I’m going to whip through the WIPs. WIPs being my works in progress (my only aunt is a new reader, so …
