Anyone have a little Firebird left over?
Notorious Sock Knitters | February 15, 2008
Howdy all,
I’m finally getting around to finishing up my Solstice Slip socks from 2007 RSC, and they are turning out shorter than I would like them (blame my big size 11 feet). Does anyone have some leftover Firebird from last year’s club that they would be willing to part with? I certainly don’t need a full skein. Thanks!
Debbie
Late start, better late than never!
January Kit Questions | February 15, 2008
This weekend I will start my socks, I’ll stick with the pattern the kit came with. I can’t wait, this is my first time in RSC, so I’m really excited! And just browsing, checking everything out!
Something a bit different
January Kit Questions | February 14, 2008
For me, this yarn wanted to be something resembling fire. So I started experimenting and came up with a sock pattern that’s slowly progressing. Take a look and tel me what you think.
The January pattern is nice and I’ll probably use it with some other yarn at some point, but for me, this yarn wanted to be something different. 
Anyone doing something else with STR?

I posted some STR heavyweight dinosaurs on my blog. Big T and Steggy! There’s a litte Valentine story there. Happy Valentine’s day everyone! I think this is a good day to cast on my Serendipity socks! -Tricia
To keep things in apple pie order.

I will occasionally be moving posts.
Sometimes posts are made with out titles. Last year this made navigating the blog extremely difficult. So far this year we don’t have the “paging” ability like we used to so it’s not an issue. I am asking Susie from Hop Studios to check into being able to add that feature back into this blog. I liked being able to page through each post with the comments visible without having to go back through the Home page or WordPress. That being said I’ll be moving Lisa’s untitled post to the comments section of “I’m finished”.
I will be checking and reading any post that doesn’t have a title. I’ll do what I can to contact the author so they can edit their post to add a title or I’ll be adding an appropriate title of my own as a stop gap until the author has a chance to think of one themselves. Re:Please (authored by Tina) If there is already an “I’ve got my kit” post and you start another post that says basically the same thing, it will become a comment to the original post. Same for the “I’m finished” category of posts. Posts that have questions will probably not get moved even if they ask the same question someone else asked in an earlier post. They may get a comment that directs them to the prior post and it’s comments.
I’m not doing this at the direction of Tina or anyone at BMFA. I’m doing this to keep the blog a bit more manageable and help others find things more easily. I hope you understand my reasoning and if you, as members of this club and readers of this blog think I should be handling things in a different manner I would appreciate your input. Happy Knitting, Alice
