Do I have a special treat for you today! It's time to see all the amazing finished Knit for Victory projects! I owe a huge thank you to Rochelle New (and behind-the-scenes, Wil!) for creating this wonderful video for Knit for Victory. Really, it was all them, I had nothing to do with it—so please give them all your thanks! Sit back, relax, and enjoy this parade through 1940s knitting. You'll be amazed and impressed ...

My Knit for Victory Hetty cardigan

January 31, 2014 by Tasha 55 Comments

I'm back with my second Knit for Victory project! Today is the last day of the challenge, can you believe it? It was actually a fluke that this project was finished before KFV wrapped up. All last week I was sick, and as I was starting to feel better, I started knitting up Andi Satterlund's Hetty cardigan. By the weekend it became apparent I was going to be able to finish it in time, so just under the buzzer I suddenly ... Read more »

January 29, 2014 by Tasha 59 Comments

Folks, Knit for Victory has been fantastic, and today I'm happy to share the first of my two finished projects for the knit-along challenge. (Reminder, Friday is the deadline!) You may recall from my bolero inspiration post that I had to change my original knitting plans as my shoulder hasn't been allowing me to knit stranded projects. So I designed something I really wanted in my wardrobe: a little green ... Read more »

Happy New Year and a fresh start to 2014! We're officially in the last month of the Knit for Victory challenge. Some people are wrapping up their projects, some starting over (ahem—that would be me), and some just joining us (hello to the folks who've just mentioned joining in the fun!).
