2009: Planning
Posted by limedragon | Filed under knitting, yarn stash
I recently upgraded WordPress on this blog and decided a makeover was in order. It took several tries (I hoped to find a magazine style layout that worked to my liking, but no luck), and I really like the new look. Fresh and simple at the same time. I hope you all like it too. [...]

(Surprise! I have finally rolled out my new blog theme. Simple, but cute, and totally me. Stop by and check it out!)
Remember these socks? Frogged them. I thought the yarn (Omo) would be nice with something lacy. How about Jeanie? Pretty cables and dropped stitches? What could not be more fun?

Mini-Surprise
Posted by limedragon | Filed under general, site updates
I’m still behind with posts, so many pictures to sort through and and posts to proofread.
Meanwhile, I was finally able to merge my old Wordpress feed with FeedBurner. I had signed up for FB ages ago, but couldn’t find an easy solution at the time. ESCknits at Ravelry clued me in to FeedSmith. This plugin [...]

Swap Fun and Classes

I’ve reverted the blog back to the default theme/skin. (July already!) If you’re registered here, you can change back to the blue theme by editing your account (the theme section is near the bottom). I’ll leave it there for a while. : )

New Socks!
Posted by limedragon | Filed under knitalongs, knitting, secret pals or swaps, site updates, socks
First, a few quick updates. I’ve temporarily changed my blog theme to match June Project Spectrum. : ) I actually like the layout, and the central (main body) width is similar to my default, but I get three columns, instead of two. I’d love your feedback on the layout/theme; is it something I should consider [...]

Project Spectrum ~ April
Posted by limedragon | Filed under knitalongs, knitting, socks
I’m so glad the week is over! Next week, I’ll return to my part-time schedule of working on Mon-Tues.
I’m planning to temporarily change the theme for this site to match Project Spectrum. Check back again this weekend! : )
I’ve only been able to knit a little bit in the evenings. I’ve also been ignoring my [...]

Improvements
Posted by limedragon | Filed under site updates
Ah…. much better. I think I have all the plugins I want/need right now. I can now schedule posts to publish at a later date, which is great because I seem to think of things to post about on the weekends. Now, instead, I can schedule and spread them out through the week.
I’ve also added [...]

Less “eh”
Posted by limedragon | Filed under site updates
After yesterday’s site meltdown, I spent all morning cleaning up and removing errors. I think I’ve got everything ironed out. There are still a couple of weird errors I’ve contacted my host about.
I took some extra time to try out a few skins and still can’t find anything I specifically like. This one comes close, [...]
