Hi everyone!!! I hope you had a great weekend and are having an even greater week. I've been busy with electrians, plumbers and my family in town to help build out Candy Skein studios. I will have a bunch of pictures (which you can see on Instagram right now...username Candyskein) in a post coming up in the Life as an Indie Dyer series soon!
As a sneak peak, I thought I would share this picture, which is the outside of the studio. It's a separate bungalow on my new property, steps away from my laundry/mud room and master bedroom. A beautiful courtyard separates everything. It only shares one wall, which is the garage.
The inside was a little rough when we bought the house, but wait until you see it finished! Stay tuned for pictures of the whole process.
Now on to what you've been waiting for. As mentioned, I haven't had much time to knit recently, but I figured I'd share this picture with you anyway. :) This is the Quaker Ridge Shawlette and I'm using Madelinetosh Tosh Sock in Worn Denim. I've done the set up and two full repeats. For those wondering, I did end up ripping out the shawl and starting over because of that extra stitch. I wasn't very far along, and I think it would have always bugged me.

ReplyDeleteYour shawl looks lovely. Can't wait to hear more about the studio!
ReplyDeleteI've just had a sneak peek and that studio is going to me AMAZING!!!!! Loving your shawl too :)
ReplyDeleteLove seeing your phots on Instagram. Can't wait to see the finished studio
ReplyDeleteThe studio is going to look great! Knitting with a similar yarn, but a beanie hat.. Sock yarn is a bit of a challenge (speedwise)..
ReplyDeleteYour studio to be looks fantastic! Love to see more pictures soon.
ReplyDeleteI can't wait to see inside your studio!
ReplyDeleteHow awesome is THAT! Isn't it what we all dream about? When my daughter graduates from college next year, and gets a place of her own, her room is MINE!
ReplyDeleteHappy hump day,
Sheila
Oh I can't wait to see how you've recreated your interior spaces. I'm a total home reno addict :)
ReplyDeleteLucky you will look forward to seeing the finished photos
ReplyDeleteI adore the little bungalow with the courtyard... I can't wait to see what you've done to make it your own!
ReplyDeleteI'm envious that you will have a studio to work out of! Can't wait to see the pictures!
ReplyDeleteIt's so cool how you're building your own studio! What an exciting project to see grow day by day.
ReplyDeleteI love that worn denim colorway. I also commend you on froggin'; I'd do the same as I'm anal about gettin' it right.
I keep hoping that we find a house with a little place out back that I can either just knit or hide my stash or something...and not a shed :)
ReplyDeleteOne day, my studio dream will come true!
ReplyDeleteBest,
Sheila
Hope all the WIPs see all the finished products :) Thank you for this! Just joined your site.
