So much fiber, so little time: All hail Hermione!

All hail Hermione!

Mhs724ta_1 This is Hermione, the Honda snowblower. She's been working hard today and probably will through the rest of the week due to the joys of lake effect snow.

Honda snowblowers are very expensive, but after watching the guy across the street spend a significant amount of time fiddling to get his machine to start, Hermione's advantages become even more clear. And she's track-drive, so she doesn't even violate the "if it has tires or testicles, it will cause trouble" rule.

Wait. Hermione is the snowblower? Then what is your car's name? Clearly, I'm going to have to take notes!

The car is Henrietta.

Track drive! Ooooooh! I'll have to tell DH about Hermione... he'll be jealous.

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.
