Welcome to Yarn Miracle

Glad y’all made it!

I’ve owned yarnmiracle.com for about a year now but due to circumstances beyond my control (laziness/change makes me queasy), it has been a redirect until now. It’s the same old blog, just shinier*. And I think my sideblog has an RSS feed now. Don’t quote me on that**. Don’t forget to update your bloglines and feed readers.

Hang on a second while I figure out how to put in pictures…

to the waist

There we go. Don’t you love it when your knitting bag matches your work in progress?

That is my current progress on the polo shirt. I love the Shine, it’s pleasant to work with and has a great drape.

I also finished up the Hurricane Sock that will be mailed at the end of May.

Everyone needs a pair of red socks.

It’s a Best Foot Forward sock from Knit Socks! Since my pal has to make the second one, she gets a copy of the book. Which (and I know I have said this before) is a great book in spite of being shaped like a sock. It is worth noting that I only started over once on this particular sock.

I also found out who my Special Swap Partner is for June: Kathy! She is expecting 17 Year Cicadas as we speak. This has nothing to do with the swap, I just want everyone thinking about cicadas bursting out of the ground after 17 years as much as I will. Don’t leave me alone with this. I hope she takes pictures.

*This is only the third look for Yarn Miracle in almost four years of blogging. I said I was not good with change.
**I may be a Complete Liar about that, turns out. I’ll get back to you.

    [psst, the first link to her on your forwarding post at the “old home” isn’t quite right… you may want to fix it 😉 ]

    I love the sock! and the shine is so shiny! and soft. 🙂

    I think that’s a great sock book, too. It probably gets overlooked because of the cute shape thing but that’s a shame because there are some very nice patterns.

    Thank goodness you brought along the Epic CounterPain — it was the first thing I looked for! I may be crazy, but does the polo match your kitchen walls? (yes, I know I’m most likely crazy regardless of your answer.)

    Great new site. Change is good. At least that’s what I keep telling myself while I pack the 5000th box for our move next week!

    I am your first Bloglines subscriber! Yippee!
    Congrats on the new site. Your first picture is very project spectrum. 🙂
    I love the Hurricane Sock also.

    Oh, everything nice and shiny over here. 😉 I think, I’m going to miss the stunningly pretty picture of your old header for a while.. Maybe not for so long if you keep showing beautiful springy knit pics like today. I love all those colours.

    I have to admit, your header pic at the old site was my favorite of all the blogs I read. I’ll miss that, but I’ll get over it. The site does look fantastic, though! I’m like you. I have to be drug into change, kicking and screaming and digging in my heels. Once there, it’s kinda nice, though. Congratulations on your move! 🙂

    Great new home! I am bad at change too so kudos to you for doing it.
    I love that book too, even if it is a cute sock.

    Welcome to your new digs! I like the new look! Though I think it’s nice not to change your look constantly. The people like consistency. It makes us feel safe.
