Round 1 of Sock Madness is done. The pattern is Day & Night.

This was a very fun pattern to knit. The designer makes clever use of slipstitch technique to create the half & half effect, plus some cables to keep things interesting.

It's Sock Madness time again (annual sock knitting competition), and here's the qualifying round.

The pattern is Conjoined Sock Twins. You knit them toe to toe, then separate and bind off the with a contrasting color.

This is the face of an innocent young miss who was *totally* not scratching on the back of mom's chair, no matter what sort of chair-scratching noises you might have heard seconds before coming around the corner.

Made a Tarte aux Pomne, because more dessert is totally what was needed the weekend after Thanksgiving.

Cats: such dignity; such grace.

(This is Potpourri and she wears diapers because she is 100% incontinent.)

Someday I'm going to open a bakery and name it 'Mistakes Were Made', because....yeah

At least these cardamom buns taste good, even if they look a hot mess.

Made some custard creams, for funsies (and also because my sister and I are baking along with GBBO).

I mean, look at this ridiculously adorable wee baby girl. I've been fostering her since she was one day old and she is perfect.

First signature bake for this year's Great British Bake Off: vertical cakes
(It's a swiss roll standing on its end).

Challenge accepted!

(Don't come at me because it's Xmas - the cats don't care, and it's been up all year.)

When you are busy working and you hear murmured conversation and you look up to see your coworkers staring at you, pretending they weren't talking smack about you behind your back.

If only you could hear her screeching. This wee baby's voice is *piercing* when she's angry. But after she's fed she rolls around in my hands and purrs and it's all worth it.
