Apparently I was way to hopeful thinking I’d get this done this weekend. This ribbing needs to measure four inches and it’s taken me a total of 3 hours to make it one inch. I’m going to be a little longer than I thought. But any progress is still progress! I’ll get there. #knitting #ribbing #yarn #tyghcardigan @lionbrandyarn https://www.instagram.com/p/CaOiqcjuI9V/?utm_medium=tumblr
FULL THROTTLE by Joe Hill Is a collection of short stories unlike any I’ve read before. There’s a few in it that I’m going to be thinking about for a while. There’s also one in it that he co-wrote with his father, Stephen King. 5 stars! #5stars @joe_hill #fullthrottle #audiobook #reading #books #library @libby.app @goodreads @zoobean @the.storygraph https://www.instagram.com/p/CaOMVtUl8_i/?utm_medium=tumblr
Not the best pic but I didn’t want to make the cat get up so I could get a better one. The sleeves are attached to the body and decreases made for the shoulders. Now I need to pick up stitches along both sides up the front of the body and across what I just finished and knit on 4” of ribbing. I was hoping to finish this cardigan before the end of winter but I might actually get it done this weekend! #tyghcardigan #knitting #yarn @lionbrandyarn #sweaterknitting https://www.instagram.com/p/CaJHv2FNQsj/?utm_medium=tumblr
Here are two cutting boards Ty finished today. First two pics are the front and back of one, the others are of the second. Both boards are elm and finished in Danish oil and are ready for use. There’s no resin in these boards so feel free to cut, cut, cut on them. They are both 12” across and the first one is 21.5” long including the handle, the second one is 24.5”. They can be used as a cutting board or a charcuterie board. The hole in the handle provides a perfect way to hang it when not in use. Both are $60 each, plus shipping if not local. Send a message if you’re interested. I’ll update when sold. @304creations @tylermaxwell1138 @chaspelinmax #elm #woodworking #cuttingboard #charcuterieboard #paddle #paddleboard #kitchenware #cooking #readytogo (at Bridgeport, West Virginia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CaIhXWblidG/?utm_medium=tumblr
Connected the sleeves to the body and started the raglan decreases. I love seeing proof that I’m not forgetting the decrease stitches and watching the progress I’m making. #tyghcardigan #librarybook #knitting #raglan #raglansweater #yarn #rainforest @lionbrandyarn @hi.ravelry https://www.instagram.com/p/CaF3TTMFZk7/?utm_medium=tumblr
This charcuterie board was so popular that it sold before the show even opened this past Saturday. Luckily it was a neighboring vendor that bought it and another one and she let us display for potential custom orders for the remainder of the event. The second pic shows it with a light behind it and the last one shows the fishing lures that got snagged and lost in the rocky riverbed. This tray measures 14”x18”, the wood is apple, real polished stones and actual fishing lures in the resin. The resin is by Super Clear Epoxy. The stones are from Michaels. The mica powder in the resin under the stones is by Eye Candy Customs in Sora-Iro Blue. @304creations @tylermaxwell1138 @chaspelinmax @eyecandypigments @eyecandycustomz @michaelsstores @superclearepoxy #applewood #woodworking #charcuterieboard #fishinglures #resin #epoxy #stones #rocks https://www.instagram.com/p/CaBb89fD-n_/?utm_medium=tumblr
It’s getting closer!! I’m ready now to join the body and the sleeves. Both the body and the two sleeves measure 19”. I didn’t tear out the little partial sleeve yet, it’s too cute and I put a lot of work into that! 😂 I have no idea what to do with it as it is though so I’ll frog it eventually. #tyghcardigan #librarybook @hi.ravelry @lionbrandyarn #makeitwithmichaels #knitting #knittingpattern #sweaterknitting #fairisleknitting #colorwork #gettingcloser #rainforest #stillwater https://www.instagram.com/p/CaBVyxYDqcq/?utm_medium=tumblr
This is a book I really wanted to like and I wound up skipping over half of it and then read the final chapter. It was entirely predictable and I don’t feel I missed anything at all. It came highly recommended for being a good novel with a knitting theme. THE SHOP ON BLOSSOM STREET by Debbie Macomber. I was on hold at the library for the ebook for months so it’s obviously popular. I prefer the novels I read to have zero religious indoctrination in them. This book is definitely Christian and way too preachy. There’s also no diversity, unless the amount of wealth a person has counts (answer: it doesn’t). I liked the concept of the story and the characters were well described. I also enjoyed the project they were all learning to knit. It was a baby blanket and the pattern is included in the book. One was making her blanket to donate to the Linus Project, which gives new handmade blankets to children in need. That particular character said it didn’t matter if it didn’t turn out nice as nobody would know she made it. Another character didn’t like the way her first attempt looked so she donated it to the Linus Project and started another one. These blankets are going to kids that deserve beautiful things just as much as any kid does. I support the Linus Project and I don’t care for how it’s treated in this book. If you think a blanket is ugly or poor quality then FROG it and make it nicer, then donate it. I’m rating this one only 2 stars and I feel like I’m being generous with that. I didn’t hate it but won’t recommend it either. #debbiemacomber #2stars #book #reading #knitting #library #ebook #theshoponblossomstreet #blossomstreet @goodreads https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ-6EBdNHBH/?utm_medium=tumblr
It took me almost three weeks to make the other sleeve and I got this one this far in just a day and a half! I still need to add about 9 1/2” of the solid dark yarn (rainforest) for it to be done but I’m making really good time. Next step will be connected the sleeves to the body. #makingprogress #yarn #knitting @lionbrandyarn #tyghcardigan #fairaisle #secondsleevesyndrome @hi.ravelry #makeitwithmichaels https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ-jlO9FM4l/?utm_medium=tumblr
No that I finally got this sleeve to measure 19” I can start knitting the second one. Or technically the third one since I still have the first one that was too tight. Let’s see if I can get it done more quickly than I did this one. #tyghcardigan #knitting #sweaterknitting #yarn #librarybook @hi.ravelry @lionbrandyarn #rainforest #stillwater #sleeve #secondsleevesyndrome #cat #knittingcat https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ8FSVHFfTH/?utm_medium=tumblr

Listened to the author read this very short audiobook today. Only one hour long, or less since I prefer to listen at 1.5x speed. CREATIVITY by John Cleese. He gives lots of useful and insightful tips about boosting your creativity. He seems to be mostly speaking about writing but the suggestions he offers will work with about any creative endeavor. 5 stars! @johncleeseofficial #5stars @goodreads @the.storygraph @zoobean #publiclibrary @libby.app #audiobook #reading #creativity https://www.instagram.com/p/CZ3Vyp0OOZi/?utm_medium=tumblr

The second book in The Haunted Yarn Shop Mystery series by Molly MacRae is DYEING WISHES. It was great to revisit characters met in the first book and the storyline was interesting. Kath and her fiber loving friends are trying to solve a local murder even though the cops have told them to leave it to them. The friends try to be more covert but that sometimes draws even more attention. They bumble through every snippet of a clue they find and sometimes it even pans out. They keep trying to schedule a yarn dyeing class for the group to compile notes but it never seems to happen. Spoiler alert: they do finally get to have it and it’s one I wish I could have attended! 4 stars just because it’s a little slow in places. Several more books in the series and I plan to read through them all. @mysterymacrae #dyeingwishes #yarndyeing #dyeing #cozymystery #murdermystery #fiberfriends #mysterybooks #publiclibrary #4stars @goodreads @the.storygraph @zoobean #ghost #cat #book #ebook #reading @libby.app https://www.instagram.com/p/CZz1n0vF-L6/?utm_medium=tumblr
This sleeve fits much better this time. I decided to go up to the next size chart for the sleeves in the pattern to maintain the same stitch definition. It would have probably also worked if I’d done the smaller size chart again but used larger needles but then the gauge would look different. The chart was a little jacked in places but I was able to figure it out and fix it as I went. I need to add another 9” to this in the dark yarn then I will do it all again for the other sleeve. I’m still hoping to get it done completely before winter is over. #knitting #tyghcardigan #knittingpattern #librarybook #makeitwithmichaels @lionbrandyarn #rainforest #stillwater #yarn #fairisle #colorwork #strandedknitting https://www.instagram.com/p/CZyG7DcuE6A/?utm_medium=tumblr
