Thought it was time for a little update on Tadpole, I seem to be growing growing…. We are 24weeks and 4 days now, hard to believe little Tadpole will be with us in a few short months. Moose and I went away for a little overnighter, probably the only one we’ll have for some time. I’ve never actually left the dogs overnight since we got them almost 2 years ago… Read More »Growing growing…. | Celtic Cast On

Temptation | Celtic Cast On

Even though I have 2 sweaters, one tunic and a sock to finish I feel myself being pulled towards the stash in search of something bright and fun to knit. I’ve been wanting to knit the Baby Surprise Jacket forever but hadn’t realized that the pattern was not only in the book The Opinionated Knitter by Elizabeth Zimmerman but that it was also for sale as a single pattern at Webs… Read More »Temptation | Celtic Cast On

Ice Cold | Celtic Cast On

January was bitterly cold, wool hats, helmet liners, snowpants, nothing seemed to keep you warm. I had finally accepted the fact that I was going to be cold when I was outside and I’d just have to suck it up and get warm when I came back in. I cast my wellies aside in SEPTEMBER because my feet were too cold and I needed my winter boots to keep my wee… Read More »Ice Cold | Celtic Cast On

This year I decided that I would break out of my normal baking and cooking to try some new things that I love but have just never known how to make. Soup is something that I eat all year round but especially during winter, warms me right down to my toes. I’m a pretty picky eater and had never really found a recipe for soup that I like… that is… Read More »Warming Up | Celtic Cast On

Pardon the unexpected blogging break but I changed hosts making the blog down for a bit. The lovely Missa at Knitblog hooked me up. I love my new template, that punch of colour is just what I needed. I think I’m going to be much happier with this host. I may not have been able to blog but I most definitely have been knitting! Pattern: Thorpe by Kirsten Kapur Yarn: Handspun from a… Read More »Winter Woolies | Celtic Cast On
