Fresh Starts

Hey Everyone! If you're reading my blog for the first time, Hi! If you used to read some of my other blogs before I gave up on them, welcome back! I while ago, I decided blogging was too much of a responcibility for me to keep up with, but after a few months of not doing it, I started to miss it, so I'm back. I'm really excited about it, too! 

I have to give a disclaimer, though. I can't promise to blog extremely regularly. I'm going to try, though! But you know how it is, life gets busy.

Anyway, this blog is about knitting!

Toe-up Charades 2

I was noticing that a lot of my handknit socks have started getting holes, and I have less and less wearbable pairs, so I started some new ones. The pattern is the Charade Socks that everyone has knit, but I haven't! 


Toe-up Charades

I'm really only using the stitch count and stitch pattern, and doing the rest my own way. I'm knitting them toe-up (just cuz I felt like it), and using my favorite method of Short-rows for the toe and heel. I've knit this short row heel a ton of times, but I've never used it for a toe. It turned out great, I'm quite impressed with myself!!


Short Row Toe
hello, i'm quite neat.


I also made some cookies!

Friday Movie Night Cookies
mmmmm.

Every Friday Night, my friends and I have Movie Night at my boyfriend's house, and I've taken to baking cookies every week to bring with me, and my friends appreciate it! This week, it was Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip, and they where gooooooood

Well that's all for now. I'll be back soon!
