Posted by on Dec 20, 2013 in Blog Fun, designs, Grounded, Knitting, patterns, Sock Knitting |

Casey and Rosie—oil and water to start… so, then what? A lovely vinaigrette once they get to know each other? Young love is so tough, even in the best of times—and  Casey and Rosie aren’t that lucky. What is the Chinese curse? May you be born in Interesting Times? Well, then they are cursed indeed. And blessed. Because regardless what else happens, they did find each other. They know the other is there.  Somewhere. Loving. These socks, designed...

Final Three Grounded Socks… rolllllling out this week! • WIP Wednesday

Posted by on Dec 18, 2013 in Blog Fun, designs, Grounded, Knitting, patterns, Sock Knitting |

Grounded Socks ARE my WIP Wednesday! Mina’s Protective Socks are not for the faint of heart—but then, neither is running a boot camp for psychic teens. Mina’s protective arms like the roots and branches of a tree enfold the kids in her care, and while she’s not perfect (who is) she’s always there. These socks are heavily cabled—so much so that the charts come color coded. And while the charts have been broken up for...

Grounded Sock—Justin’s Stubborn Socks

Posted by on Dec 3, 2013 in Blog Fun, designs, Grounded, Knitting, patterns, Sock Knitting |

Justin’s Stubborn Socks gave us a little trouble trying to get photos, but Justin always pulls through when the chips are down. Perhaps the most misunderstood of The Seven, Justin is the one who ultimately has your back. Good looking, stylish, and with a (slightly?) haughty sense of humor, Justin is the only one of The Seven who won’t be allowed back in his house unless he can stop being psychic. Yeah. Right. So Justin has to find...

Here we are with the next sock in our series!

Knit in Riin Gill’s Happy Fuzzy Yarn (Corrie Sock in Cobalt) they will lift your spirits and boost...

Rosie’s Firestarters • A Grounded Sock

Posted by on Oct 9, 2013 in Blog Fun, designs, Grounded, Knitting, patterns, Sock Knitting, Writing |

So, I wrote this book. Then I tried to figure out how to help spread the word (because that’s the biggest fear, right? That we’re all just typing into the echo chamber of our own mind). And then my husband says, “Socks.” And then he gets this devilish gleam in his eye and says slowly, “Sock. Puppet. THEATER!”   We’ll table that last bit for a moment. First, let me introduce you to Rosie’s...
