As promised, I updated the shop this morning… My toasty ears can attest to the coziness and warmth of these hats. (And my frozen toes can attest to my dedication in photographing the hats in their natural, snow-covered environment.) See how they brighten up a gloomy-looking day? It’s that beautiful, vibrant, and soft wool from […]

It’s cold. It’s gray. It’s dreary. And it isn’t over yet – not by a long shot. The thought of spending another two months in the dark, cold grip of winter has me turning to brightly colored wool and my button collection. Maybe I can’t be sipping exotic drinks by a tropical pool right now, […]

Have you seen Leslie Friend‘s new hat pattern? It’s called Chunky Knit Beanie, and it seemed to me that it would be a very simple thing to adapt to the loom. And since Eamonn needed a new hat, I gave it shot. Please forgive the photo – most pictures of Eamonn are a blur of […]

I sat down this morning, before doing anything else, and made myself a list of things that I needed or wanted to work on today. You will notice, by what I tackled first, that my priorities are firmly in order. Clearly I always choose to focus on what is most important. Now, now, don’t look […]

Oooooh, boy, it’s cold out there! Four times today, I put on my neckwarmer, followed by my hat, a sweater, a jacket, and shoes. Four times, I trudged outside to wait for a bus or run an errand. Four times, I came back into the house and shed all of that stuff. Except this last […]

I finished my little neckwarmer project. And, wow, was it ever a quick knit! I nearly completed the whole thing while watching TV last night. I should really call this my “Stargate Atlantis Series Finale Scarf” but I think I’ll stick to the simpler “Malabrigo Neckwarmer.” The Details Pattern: Cashmere Neckwarmer by Kim (on Ravelry) […]

Everybody knows I needed another social network in my life, so it shouldn’t come as a suprise that I went and joined Ravelry this week. For the non-yarn-afflicted out there, Ravelry is kind of like Big Database of Yarns, Patterns, and Finished Projects meets Flickr. Members share images of their yarn stash, their works in […]

Today was the last day for a while that I’ll be able to sleep past 7:15. It’s the last day that I’ll be able to sit on the couch with a knitting project, listening to a couple of podcasts, making something for myself without unanswered business email hanging over my head. Tomorrow Neil goes back […]

Two posts from me on New Year’s Eve and then nothing. It’s three days into the new year, and where have I been? Well, see, the beautiful thing about having a husband who works in education is that he generally gets a Christmas break just like the kids do. This translates into long, cozy days […]
Read More: Where have I been?I am getting the distinct impression from the comments on the last few knitting-related posts, that I may have influenced a few people to give it a try, which I think is very cool! But there are questions, and I read somewhere that for every person who asks, there are 10 others who want to […]
