		<description><![CDATA[So back in January, Stephanie Pearl-McPhee blogged about her self-imposed sock club, bundling together yarn from her stash with patterns and setting up 12 grab-and-go bags. I thought it was a nifty idea, and then I forgot about it. After my frog-or-finish decisions, though, I started thinking about it again, because it was time for [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Around October I started thinking that I should frog or finish my WIPs by the end of the year. This week, it got obvious that I wasn&#8217;t going to finish everything, so I buckled down and made decisions (and live-tweeted it with the hashtag #frogorfinish). It quickly became obvious that I like making hats, but [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I picked up 2 skeins of Nadezdha&#8217;s Crayon Box handdyed worsted weight wool yarn at YarnStory and have started swatching for a scarf. This colorway is &#8220;Ka&#8217;a'awa&#8221;, which can be translated as &#8220;shallow water&#8221; so I was looking for something evocative of that. This is called Harrow Stitch in one of the Mon Tricot stitch [...]]]></description>
