nuttnbunny makes some stuff

Because he can.

2009-04-25T17:49:00.002-05:00

Admit it. You would too if you had access to the equipment.

Come to Mama!

2009-04-20T08:42:00.002-05:00

Have you planned for Mothers' Day gifts?

A small update on my etsy shop. A few Shibori silk scarves.
This is another interesting way to explore the structure of color.

Synergy between spun yarn and the dyed eggs.

nuttnbunnyspunme Brights
356 yards, Aran weight, 2 ply

The wool is from Cherry Tree Hill and a pleasure to spin. A gift from 10%. (Thanks! xoxo...)
I've got designs on what to knit and for whom. Hee Hee. :-)

nuttnbunny and nuttnsonny handdyed eggs

Our fantastic colander method.

Super fast , super easy and super pretty. Super!

The egg hunt maniacs prepping for the frenzy.

Many eggs were found. Much candy was consumed. Serious fun was had. Success!!

Remembering the weather at Easter last year. This year is much more civilized.

Can I watch a movie?

2009-04-06T10:16:00.004-05:00

We do our best to manage Z's television consumption.
Careful choices are made:

two cartoons on weekend mornings
a movie when we have a babysitter
the occasional youtube foray for current interests
(i.e., whale sharks, surfing dudes, donald duck)
any/all of the above when he's ill

Now he feigns illness to achieve viewership. It's funny but of concern.

It's easy enough to see through his dramatic ploy (the Academy Award for best Fever goes to....) but I worry that we're not doing this right.
Our TV is in the basement and is not a part of our daily life.
There is no unsupervised watching.
The goal is to give him enough TV access for fun and immunization.

Your perspectives please?

Good Morning.

2009-04-03T10:09:00.003-05:00

I can make things and I can write about making things.

Q: Can I do both simultaneously?
A: Sometimes

Lovely breakfast this morning.
Sprouted french lentils, diced apple, basil, olive oil & apple cider vinegar.
Very clean.

Fairly Shocked

2008-08-26T14:52:00.002-05:00

Two entries. One ribbon.

Lace Ribbon Scarf and Z's Raglan.

I'm so stinking happy! Already making plans for next year. :-)

There was SO MUCH gorgeous work this year.
God, I love the Fair!!!

Thannksgiving in August

2008-08-14T18:54:00.003-05:00

Back at home. Feels like... home.

A loss and a lot of love.

At my grandmothers funeral

I kept looking at my child,

my siblings, my niece,

my mother and thinking:

thank you.

What a gift.

Will be spinning at the State Fair on opening day, 8/21.

Stop by the Baa Booth to say hi.

Also entered 2 knit items. Will see how I do.

And the living is easy...

2008-07-09T13:45:00.003-05:00

10% and SWMBO* came up from TX to spend the 4th.
They get to escape the heat and we get to enjoy their company.

We all went up to Duluth for a couple days and were back safely at home for the holiday.

Franconia, MN has the best Fourth of July Parade in the country.
No spectators, only participants.
Marching followed by a cookout party,
complete with egg toss and 3-legged race.

Good fun for the whole fam-damily!

We did manage to set off a few fireworks.

In spite of what Z's frantic retreat implies, these were merely smokebombs.

We waited until after dark to almost sear his foot off with sparklers.

Hit the river this weekend with our neighbors.

Z adores driving. He quickly learned to operate the accelerator.

Check out the wake!

Guppie Z learns to swim.

Thank you Stearns Company!

A big storm in a big sky yields a big rainbow.
As context, nuttnhubby's sculpture is 65 feet tall. Details here.

Miss Julie and I head to La Belle Vie on Friday. Ooo La La!

Our great love of this restaurant was inspired by our even greater love of the Supreme Julia. I highly recommend adding her shows to your Netflix queue.

Details on our meal plus fiber dyeing, spinning, and knitting forthcoming.

Z's play is becoming more and more enchanting. I love stumbling upon these little scenarios. I think I'll start capturing the images, fill in the narrative and make them into a children's book. :-)

More images of everything on Flickr.

The same, only different

2008-05-27T18:56:00.002-05:00

This week was a study in doing the same thing twice.

This is my head... This is my head emerging from a chrysalis.

Pattern: Balsam

Modifications: Knit an abbreviated version casting on 90 stitches and working 2.5 pattern repeats for a cowl.

BFL

And a twin. Now, why would I need two of these? Hmmm...

And the same in spinning.

River's Edge Fiber split and spun two ways.

This into 168 yards 2 ply at 15 wpi/fingering.

I have a new found love of plying from a center pull ball.

And the same fiber, other half.

Spun into 113 yards DK weight at 11 wpi navajo ply.

Related, yet different.

What it is. What it isn't. What it might be.
That's one for me to ponder all week. :-)

Well, I didn't mean for that to happen!

2008-05-17T07:54:00.003-05:00

A quick blog vacation.

Back to our regularly scheduled program...

Mother's Day gift for my Mom. As mentioned elsewhere, I must really love my mom b/c anyone else would totally have gotten a flower delivery while I made off with this scarf!

Z was my little helper by shooting this pic!

Mud Season
from Spunky Club
March 2008

They have another pattern for a lace cowl that I'm going to try too.

Shepherd's Harvest Festival was on Mother's Day weekend.
Lots of stash building. (I bought the equiv of how many sheep?!?!?)

And "Party Dress/She's So Unusual" took the Blue Ribbon in Novelty Yarn. I'm surprised by how few entries there were in the skein competition. Why is that?

Lastly, I've got a little Scavenger Hunt going on Ravelry. You have to find it to play. There will be prizes... Come on! :-)

The Young, Mysterious King

2008-04-25T10:42:00.006-05:00

El Mysterioso Rey Jr.
I consider it a public service when he wears this to the grocery store.

We're on a prairie restoration cycle at Franconia Sculpture Park and we burned the fields in that service earlier this week.

Awesome.

Miss Julie had a birthday!

In her honor
(1) Claire the Lamb produced this bag o' fleece which
(2) I (in her honor) spun into yarn.

13 oz prepared fleece spun into 576 yards 12 wpi 2 ply sport weight yumminess.

Color - natural

Texture - soft and bouncy

:-)

Destined to be knit into what I hope will be an appropriately honorable Christmas gift.

And more spinning.

"Insect Wings"
Hello Yarn Fiber Club
February 2008
10 oz (how I love the double club) BFL

Spun into:
323 yards
10.5 wpi

Julie Frick energized a great devotional cowl worship on Ravelry and Flickr.

After a secret gift project is complete (not for you Miss Julie, not yet :-))
Insect Wings will become a cowl.

Better late than never

2008-04-07T15:33:00.003-05:00

Pattern: Incredible Custom-Fit Raglan
Yarn: nuttnbunnyspunme dk - low country from Hello Yarn fiber
Notes: Best worn while dancing around and singing the theme to Scooby Doo

And not a moment too soon. He's almost outgrown it!

Can't stop smiling about these stripes.

We've been serious EZ Bakers.

Might be better if we added more chocolate.

V. carefully...

Wonder if this frosting's any good. Let's check it.

Hits the spot!

Yes - it's still snowing... in April.
Those are Hammie's prints.
He really wants the squirrels to get off his damn porch.
It's a cat thing.

And another pair. MUST try another pattern after this.

Pattern: Dragon Scale Mitts from PurlBee
Yarn: Frog Tree Alpaca - sport weight
Notes: used the US2 needles again. Like em a little snug.

These are a gift for Tara at La Belle Vie. Miss Julie and I are taking nuttnhubby and Anna Nanna out for dinner this weekend to celebrate our birthdays. Oooo baby!

Hello 41! Big plans for a great year. :-)

Sprung?

2008-03-26T15:31:00.003-05:00

Need things to stay warm. It's still winter here.
Don't let the passing of the first day of Spring fool you.

Pattern: Quickie Cowl by Fawn Pea

Modifications: Used Size 11 needles, provisional cast on, and grafted to finish.
Just like on Frivoli!

Yarn: nuttnbunnyspunme bulky - “Mutant Peeps” from Spunky Club
on flickr and ravelry

Notes: Super fast, super soft, super cute. Destined, alas, for a gift.

And for another Spring activity:
Newly boiled and ready to dye in the super-speedy-nuttnbunny-uber-dye method.

Put in a colander.
Splash with vinegar.
Sprinkle with food dye.
Swirl around.
Rinse.
Dry on a cake rack and...

Voila! 4 dozen in 15 minutes. Call Guinness, it's a Record.

Thank you Easter Bunny.
I'm a little scared of this guy. So sweetly menacing.
Z was much more brave.

Friends came over for an egg hunt. In the snow for godssake!!!!

Post egg hunt movie time.

My tummy hurts. Can I please have one more piece of candy? It's a just little tiny racecar.

Mmmmm.... Ham.

2008-03-19T17:30:00.006-05:00

Another for Pay it Forward. Now if I could only get my ass to the post office!

Pattern: Lacey Ascot
Yarn: nuttnbunnyspunme sport here on Ravelry
Notes: Christina Marie's original looks so great with the color shifting Noro. Not sure this subtle yarn shows off the pattern as well.

It is v. v. soft. So happy to knit with my own yarn. I'm heading to Keri's shop for some more of her wonderful battlets. Suggest you follow me there.

More knitting for Pay it Forward.

Pattern: PurlBee Beret
Yarn: Locally produced fine Alpaca
Notes: Made this one exxxxxxtra slouchy

More spinning. This from Spunky Club February 2008.

"Think Spring" colorway
100% South African Fine Wool
has spun into
"Mutant Peeps"
100 yards
Navajo Plyed
Bulky @ 7 wpi

"Animal"

This fiber from Spunky Club January 2008.
100% Icelandic Wool

The fiber (which I neglected to photograph) seemed so "beasty", in a good way, that I wanted to spin it bulky to capitalize on it's "animalness",

Not sure what to do with 63 yards of bulky - 7 wpi. Maybe a blanket for Z's puppy to accessorize with his little raglan?

Charged Hammie's scratcher up with some fresh catnip. He's feeling fine.

Got another 4 inches of snow on Monday night. With Easter this weekend I think the kids are bound for an indoor egg hunt.

At least we'll have the ham to console us.

2008-03-12T14:16:00.005-05:00

Ahhh... That's much better.

Vacation trip was fantastic. Beach, pool, naps, the city bus (man, they really tear-ass around) and good family time.

Very little knitting completed. The best of intentions.

::buzz buzz::

Pattern: Dragon Scale Mitts
Yarn: Frog Tree 100% Alpaca Sport Weight - cool organization.
Buy their stuff.

I hope she'll look like the little ray of sunshine she is!

The Essentials

2008-02-23T10:47:00.002-06:00

We're off. And not a moment too soon.
Winter has been too much this year.
Depth and duration.

See you in March!

Raglans, Butter, Bees and Love

2008-02-12T11:26:00.000-06:00

Almost done with Z's custom calculated top down raglan.

Would have met the birthday deadline 'cept the boy's got a giant noggin.
Need to rip the collar and reknit more loosely.

Did manage a top-down raglan fopr Puppy out of leftover Frosted Forest handspun. Super cute, huh? :-) His head's a little squishier than Z's so a little ear smashing as it goes on isn't a bother.

Look at him - he's not really bothered by much.

Z's quite pleased. His Tia made Puppy some jeans too. Next stop - pajamas. I'm hoping for a bunny suit. That may be a great idea for someone's Easter basket.

Here's a little one-day knit.

Was meant to celebrate the new bees in my bonnet. Looks more like a head basket.

Well butter my butt and call me a biscuit!

Yarn: nuttnbunnyspunme worsted - butter

Still, it makes me happy. Guess what else makes me happy?

What time is it? Time to bee. :-)

And these - truly. Bees in my bonnett. Tough to photograph. Easy to love.

From the genius talent of Rebecca Hendriks, by appt only at True Blue Tattoo in Austin.

Still-life with Godzilla and baby. When you push her button she roars and rocks the little Valentine's bear. Thanks Z!

Love and sloppy mutant dinosaur kisses.

Frosted Forest Bainbridge Scarf

2008-01-21T13:12:00.000-06:00

From the Hello Yarn Fiber Club this is Frosted Forest, the December 2007 edition.

50/50 Soy Silk/Wool Top
spun into 256 yards of
2ply sport weight.

So soft!!!

The next round of sign ups for the club are this Friday. I'm definitely going for another double.

Immediately knit into Bainbridge Scarf.
Trying to chip away at my Ravelry queue.
More aspirations are added to the list than FOs are completed.

It's been ridiculously cold here for the last week and it's supposed to continue for some time.

Luckily, my feet are warmly ensconsed in these glorious socks - a supremely surpriseful Pay it Forward giftie from Death by Yarn. Aren't they spectacular?

And I had just laid out all my handknit socks to try to figure out darn darning. A hole in each heel. 5 pairs = 10 holes. These have saved me!

And I can still feel the glow from our TX visit. Miss Julie and I had a wonderful time hanging out with 10% and SWMBO.

Boots were gotten. These are Andeson Bean red calf leather. Fit like a kick ass dream come true. Another pair being re-lasted so they fit perfectly.

Tattoos were gotten too. Not yet ready for prime-time. As soon as they heal up though. Let's just say I keep hearing a lovely warm buzz...

It's a damn turkey parade around here. Swear to the Sweet Mother of Tasty Yarn Cakes that there were 70+/- in the next field this morning.

Cast on for a b-day sweater for sweet Z. Top down raglan. Wonder if I should have given myself more than 2 weeks?

Lightning fingers off to knit. Hope you all stay warm!

Bobble me this, Riddler

2008-01-08T08:40:00.000-06:00

Friday was rough. Z was down with the barfs.
During our Power Rangers marathon, and in between cuddling and trips to the bathroom, I got some knitting done.

Pattern: Frivoli

Yarn: nuttnbunnyspunme dk - goblin eyes
(Fiber from Spunky Club October 2007)

Notes: This is the grafted version. That classic socks pattern from Yankee Knitter has really helped my kitchener grafting knowledge and it was a lot simpler than I thought it would be. Did have to turn the stereo off and wait till my guys were out of the house for an hour.

Model: The illustrious nuttnhubby. My little hammie for the cammie.

Wasn't thrilled with this yarn in the skein but totally heart the way those stripes knit up.

Can't seem to stop with these Mini-Mitts. They're the perfect travel project.

Made a multi colored pair.

And a purple pair.

All are Koigu KPPPM leftovers from the beret phase. Have one more partial skein in the peachy color and then I'll try to obsess on another pattern.

One of the problems is that I keep giving them away. That's good news for some folks but leaves me with cold hands.

Spunky Club December 2007
Party Dress
4oz Superwash Corriedale

Nice brightness!

Spun into "She's So Unusual"
plied with some fuschia corriedale leftover from the stocking project.
360 yards of 2ply at 11 wpi. DK baby!

I feel like I just performed in a kickline at Halftime and am getting ready for the After-Game Dance. I'll wear a great dress and do a great two-step, but no one (and I mean no one) at Katy High will ever ask this gal for a dance. Not sad, just true.

I'm thinking legwarmers for the yarn. :-)

Once again the State of Minnesota has denied my application for a Turkey tag. What the...!!!

Consolation trip to TX booked. Heading down to meet Miss Julie and 10% in Harlingen this Friday for some custom boots and then to Austin for food, music and tattoo.

That should help!

Here it is!

2008-01-02T11:11:00.000-06:00

Welcome to 2008! I resolve to keep my neck warm.

Pattern: Cherry Garcia
Yarn: my own handspun from Spunky Eclectic Fiber Club November 2007 "Pie for Everyone" 4 oz Falkland Wool plied with BlueBells 95% Cormo and 5% Icicle from KnittyGritty in her Etsy shop

Here she is flat. Love the color transitions. Love using my handspun. Love how quickly this knit. Love it love it love it.

Had a little yarn leftover so made a Wristy Garcia for my rollergirl friend with ultrafresh style.

"Toxic"

Handspun from Hello Yarn Fiber Club November 2007

Superwash Corriedale Wool Top

353 yardssporet weight at 12 wpi

My thinnest yarn yet!!!

"Vineyard"

2oz. brown cashmere 50/Tussah 50

Dyed by me with Landscapes Elements dyes.

Spun into 41 yards DK weight at 11wpi

Unbelievably soft.

Too bad I won't be spinning anymore cashmere.

Bluebells

Handspun from minibatts at Knitty Gritty's etsy shop

70 yards worsted weight at 10 wpi

95% Cormo and 5% Icicle

Navajo plyed (yipee!)

Jessicah sent me the most spectacular package!!

Pineapple lumps are a cruel sweet mistress. There were two bags (note: past tense).
I have consumed both. No regrets either.

Supremely gorgeous fabric!

She made these great ornaments. Straight to our tree they went.

And she printed the most adorable Pavlova recipe tea towel. She MUST make more of these. Can't wait to try the recipe.

Wonder if you can bake them EZ Bake style?

Stockings are hung

2007-12-20T20:06:00.000-06:00

Fini!

Knit for Baby Setsuko for her first holiday season.
Santa - Get busy cuz this bad boy needs fillin'.

Pattern: Classic Socks for the Family, supersized!
Yarn: My own handspun. Bulky CyberCandy and Sterling
Duration: Quick like lightening!
Note: The little i-cord bow sets it off nicely.

Detail.

Merry Merry.

In the midst of everything, Baby Joachim made an early appearance.
(No. He's a baby, not a cookie jar)
So, off to knit.

Pattern: Wee Hat (sorry, only available on Ravelry)
Yarn: Malabrigo Merino Worsted
Duration: 2 hours
Note: Buddha looks really great in it

And another, which didn't look as good on Buddha.
A little too long in the noggin.

Pattern: Bamboozle Baby Hat - want to make those booties and sweater too.
Yarn: Malabrigo Merino Worsted
Duration: 3 hours
Note: My first project knit continental style. Big plans for learning stranded knitting in 2008 and I think continental may be one of the keys. It does speed things up!

And because I can't seem to stop myself - hand-dyed rovings. A total blast.

"Finch"
2oz Cultivated Silk Top
Dyed with Landscapes Elements Dyes. by preparing the roving and dribbling on the water dilution dye. Then rolled in plastic clingwrap and steamed until set.

"Vineyard"
2 oz Brown cashmere 50/Tussah 50
Used the same dyes but sprinkled the powders directly on the prepared roving lain in the enamel pan of a small electric roasting oven.

This was a freaking disaster.

Yak. And it looks exactly like someone did.

"Matt"
1.9 oz Yak Top
Same dyes. Same process as above HOWEVER when placing the sliver into the initial hot water bath the whole thing went apeshit. Fiber separating and floating everywhere.

Never deterred by abject failure I continued on with the dyeing and luckily...

... was able to fluff the whole thing out again. We'll see how it spins.

Z enjoyed the creation of the Gingie House.

"Mama. Can we eat it now?...

Now?...

Now?..."

You know how it goes.

Pinky, Low, and Frosty

2007-12-14T20:06:00.000-06:00

Totally adore this pattern. Super quick and with less than one skein of Koigu KPPM. Had some left after the beret frenzy from earlier this year, which makes me remember how much I appreciate that pattern.

Need to check the Purl Bee blog again.
Never met a pattern of theirs I didn't like.

These are a giftie for my sister-in-law, lovely wife to 10%.
Knit pretty small (they're super snug on my hands) using US2 DPNs. I've tried the magic loop but the DPNs just help me organize myself better.

And more spinning.

Hello Yarn Fiber
"Low Country"
Shetland Wool

316 yards - a significant chunk o'yarn
as a reminder - those are Size 11 clogs.

DK Weight - getting thinner and thinner!!!

Split the roving down the middle to see if I could get the colors to line up. Sometimes yes and sometimes no.

Thinking about a top down raglan for Z. I've asked Santa for some Zimmerman books. That should do it.

Spunky Eclectic Fiber Club
November 2007
"Pie for Everyone"
4 oz Falkland Wool
plied with BlueBells from KnittyGritty in her Etsy shop
95% Cormo and 5% Icicle

Wanted to bust out and boldly try something new. Now that I can get pretty thin singles - took the fiber club offering spun as thickly as I could. No longer so easy! Plied with thinly spun sparkly singles.

Can you see the glimmers here?
Now the perpetual question: What to make?
Is it lame to knit up another Urchin?

'Tis the season.

Took Z and Moonpie to visit Santa.

"Sweet Mother of Red Velvet! The Bearded Dude has his hand on my stomach!" (photo left)
followed immediately by the classic "Deer in the Headlights". (photo right)

Z was just giggly.
Later, he was bummed that he forgot to ask Santa where the reindeer where.

Fetching Hat

2007-12-02T12:14:00.000-06:00

Dulaan Fetching Hat
As with all hats I knit this was orginally intended for 10%.
Don't think it'll fit him.
Added an extra inch to the overall length and it still barely covers my ears.
May try it again adding more length.

It's really hard to take pics of your own head.

More Cyber Candycane. Brings the grand total to 316 yards. Should get 2+ stockings out of it.

Here's the first WIP. The foot looks a little too dainty so I'm making another one. May frog this one and redo. Or may leave it be, add the ribbon, and re-evaluate.

Here's Sterling. Spun up for the aforementioned ribbon.

200 yards
Aran Weight
Corriedale
spun from fiber purchased from Hello Yarn

Speaking of Hello Yarn, here's "Toxic" the November club edition.

Also Corriedale but in a Superwash.
Glad I enrolled in the double club.
Recent dreams of top down raglans.

Spunky Club gave us "Pie for Everyone". 4 oz of Falkland Wool which I'm tempted to spin on the beefy side and ply with...

3 oz. Bluebells - 95% Cormo Top with 5% icicle.
Will the lovely icicles get buried or will my vision of frosty berries reign?

Frosty, too, it has become.

Woo Hoo is the sound you would be hearing if you were here.

Stinking Blogger

2007-11-29T16:31:00.000-06:00

What is it with my technology recently?!?!
No internet service followed by Blogger's denial of photo uploads.

Drat, drat and double drat.

Seriously.

In the interim - 10% (who has exceptional tech skills) has posted a great Z pic.
