And away we go

I have to laugh now.  I'm wondering how many times I've started a new blog? The answer is a few.  But the ones I stuck with the longest were called "Seems to Me" and "Knitting Interrupted".  I really wish I could pull the content from the old knitting blog into here but it's long gone.  So, here I am starting a new one.  

I guess I should say that I've titled this blog "RBW Knits" because that's my id on IG and Ravelry, and I'm an obsessive knitter, and pattern crafter.  I needed a space to think out loud, to catalog what I'm working on that's just mine. So here we are...

I hope you'll follow along and leave great comments when you see something you are interested in or have something to add. Knitters love to share!

  Brainstorm Socks Last Updated 7/15/23 These little top down socks are probably the easiest socks you will ever knit! Really! No stitches to pick up, no kitchner stitch weaving, just knit straight through from beginning to end! There’s no cuff or leg to speak of.

  Sunstreak I've been tinkering with sock patterns again and expanded on one of my previous patterns. If you are new to sock knitting this is a perfect beginner sock pattern for you to learn with. It removes all the harder skills of picking up stitches, or kitchener stitch, which most sock patterns incorporate. These socks are probably the easiest socks you will ever knit! Really! This sock pattern is built exactly like my Brainstorm sock pattern, extending the leg and adding a cuff, instead of a rolled cuff sock. Sunstreak . Still super simple though. Easy to memorize. Abbreviations: M1 = make 1 stitch. You can do this in whatever increase style you like best. K = knit P = purl K2T = knit 2 together P2T = purl 2 together K1TBL = knit 1 stitch through the back loop SSN = slip 1 stitch, slip one stitc...
