Posted by: Miss Kalendar  :  Category: Announcements, Episodes

In Episode 11, we learn that Miss K is a quitter!

Miss K officially quits the 52 pair plunge, speaks about knitting a shawl, and picks up the puff-sleeve feminine cardigan by Stephanie Japel, out of Fitted Knits. There is an update from both Miss K and ChristhefixedKitty on the Cabletini knitalong.

There is a report from Gail Carriger on Knitting Outside the Box.

Lastly, the science fiction moment – X Men 1, 2, & 3. Miss K talks about what she liked and what she didn’t. Then she goes off a bit about what it would be like to be Storm – and her wish that Emma Frost be used any new movie.

(REPOST) Episode 7, Knit along and Baycon

Posted by: Miss Kalendar  :  Category: Announcements, Episodes

In Episode 7, Miss K. teams up with Christhefixedkitty over at the Adult Space Child Free Podcast in order to launch a sock KAL.  Since Chris has never before knit a sock, she picked the pattern, the Cabletini Toe-up Socks by Wendy D Johnson. The pattern is also available from Wendy’s website, and was originally published by the Loopy Ewe.  Come join us on the the thread for this knit along on the Brass Needles board on Ravelry. (you know you want to!)

Because this weekend was BayCon, the San Jose-based Sci-Fi convention (this year’s theme was Steampunk),  there is are a few notes on this and the soon to be created Borg Beanie, which I am striving to write a pattern for this week. We shall see if ambition again lays me low.

Sadly, Gail Carriger is again missing from the podcast, and has lamented that her diligent searching hasn’t turned up anything podcast-worthy. Knitting has been conspicuously missing from the fashion pages. However, she assures me that she’ll have a report for us when she returns from the BEAs on Knitwear in New York.

To contact,  please email me at miss.kalendar@brassneedles or send me a pm over at Ravelry – username kalendargirl. Also, come chat with me on twitter!

I’m famous!

Posted by: Miss Kalendar  :  Category: Announcements

Well, maybe not famous, but I did just find that part of a short interview I did while teaching knitting at SteamPowered Convention in October made it into an article online. The article is with Bizarremag.com. I would like to point out that I did not drop a stitch. link here.

There’s even a picture of me teaching someone to knit in the sidebar of the article. Squeeeeeee!!!
