So much fiber, so little time: One sock, two sock

One sock, two sock

Finally finished the second Gotland/Shetland sock. These puppies will wear like iron.

And speaking of puppies, Cookie is doing pretty well. Unfortunately, despite the ultrasounds, no parathyroid adenomas showed up during surgery, so we're back to square one and looking for ectopic parathyroid tissue. (My vet, for very good reasons, calls her "Cookie, dog of mystery".) They removed bladder stones, a side effect of the hypercalcemia, which at least should hold off a late-night emergency trip.

Poor pup is still on an IV, but she'll be home tomorrow morning. I'm not going to visit her today, because she's acting pretty calm. I'm afraid if I show up, she'll think she's homeward bound and then get upset.

Poor girl. We went through the same kind of thing with Miso and her insulin issues. Here's to Cookie's fast recovery!

I'm glad Cookie's surgery is over; I hope she can clear up the "mystery" soon. Thanks for letting us know, and best doggy wishes to you and Cookie.

Lace work

A collection of knitted lace shawls, stoles and wimples. Many were done in handspun yarn. Click on an image for a larger picture and description, plus charts for some.

Socks and small knits

These are all handknitted socks and other small items. Most of these were knitted from my own handspun yarn. Click on an image for a larger picture and description, plus charts for some.

(Most of the Celtic designs came from Celtic Charted Designs by Co Spinhoven, an excellent and inexpensive resource.)

Doll Knits

A collection of (mostly) knitted doll clothing.

Sweaters

Back in the dark ages (as in pre-1987), I used to knit sweaters. Nowadays, I rarely do, so I'll use this album to record some of what I have done and may yet to be.
