Virtual Knit Night October 15th
This week I've been reading, re-reading, proof reading and re-proofing - but it did happen at last, the 'all clear' decision was made and our book has been sent off to print. I'm clinging on to my needles in anticipation ... Will you join me at tonights knit night? The details are the same as always, we are on from...

Virtual Knit Night October 8th
Stranded on sleeve island, and I lost the yarn chicken game. I don't think I have enough to finish both sleeves on my Milkweed jumper, so tonight might be the night for touch decisions. To make the sleeves shorter, or to bite the bullet and buy more yarn. Do you want to help me decide? I'll be expecting you at...

Virtual Knit Night October 1st
It has been such a hectic week, but some things are just moving way too slow. I wanted to shout out about my finished Filigree Sweater with a What Maya Knits blog post today, and show it off at the virtual knit night this evening, but with the change in weather the jumper is still blocking and drying on the...

Virtual Knit Night September 24th
My Filigree Sweater is nearly done, just the ribbing on the last sleeve left to do, and I'm crazy excited about having it finished so I can wear it. I swear I'll have it done tonight at our weekly virtual knit night, where I'll be maniacally knitting! Will you join me? The procedure is the same as always, we are...

Time for a new project - Icelandic Lopapeysa
The Lopapeysa originates in Iceland in early or mid-20th century, at a time when imports had displaced older and more traditional Icelandic clothing and people began to search for new ways to utilise the plentiful native wool. The design has since become a national icon for Icelandic cultural identity.

Virtual Knit Night September 17th
When I've not been completely immersed in everything anniversary book, last week has been spent manically knitting, but no ... it seems I've failed at test knitting again. With one sleeve left to do, the pattern I'm testing is launching tomorrow! Stay tuned for the Filigree Sweater! Now the question is, who can catch up with me? I can't wait...

Virtual Knit Night September 10th
So there is this test knit I'm doing for a friend of mine, which was supposed to finish the 1st - well at least I've managed to finish the body! Meaning I currently have 4 WIP projects on my needles, and not only are they work-in-progress projects, they are all sleeves-in-progress... The question is which sleeves to do tonight? The...

Virtual Knit Night September 3rd
There was this shift in the weather this week, in just a few days we went from proper hot to quite chilly. I don't feel like this was a smooth transition, almost like we just missed 'late summer' and went straight into fall. I do miss these longer chillier evenings though, they usually provide heaps of knitting time - the...

Virtual Knit Night August 27th
Community has always been at the very chore of what we do here at Knit with attitude. When planning for and developing our upcoming anniversary book we set our goals, one of them being to bring Knit with attitude into people's homes, to gift a piece of us and our surroundings, no matter where the reader happened to be in...

Virtual Knit Night August 20th
How did this happen, how did I go from being monogamous to having four projects on the go? I'm currently doing a test knit for a dear friend of mine, which involves lace too complicated to work on at tonight's knit night, so I might just finish a sleeve on another project instead. Hope to see you there! The details...

Virtual Knit Night August 13th
After our one week break, due to me going on holiday, we are ready to gather again, needles and laughter included! I don't know about you guys, but the heat the last week made all my holiday knitting plans fly out of the window. I've started a new project which involves a woolly singles yarn, and every time I tried...
