I am a Los Angeles native, as is my mom. My dad and grandparents, however, were from Chicago. I’m not a baseball fan, but I wept when the Cubs won the 2016 World Series because I wished my grandpa could have seen his dream come true. This is a long-winded way of saying I stand with Chicago.

It’s amazing how much knitting you can get done if you ignore housework. 😁

I think socks are my favorite thing to knit.

The pattern is #barricanesocks by @daisystitches. I love how this Very Berry sock yarn from @jamjaryarns in Papaya is knitting up. The colorway was my mom’s pick for her birthday socks. 🧢🧦

Jumped on the stash bust along bandwagon and cast on a #brioripple wrap by #westknits.

Knitting 100% from stash, just from partially used skeins, and am putting color combinations together as I go. 🧢

Still life with yarn and lemons, or delving into stash to start a #westknits #brioripplewrap.

I was feeling confident until I realized how many choices I have… and I didn’t even pull out my #miniskeins. 🧢

A pair of ombrΓ© socks with a lace leaf border alongside moss stitch in the from and stockinette in the back are displayed on a garden wall.  Behind the socks is an inverted terra cotta pot in a bed of oxalis, and to the right is a stone frog sculpture.  The yarn deepens from a bright lime green at the cuff to a dark teal at the toe.
