Adjacent
Brioche(ish) is out on both ravelry and payhip! You can use the code ISH to take 10% off in either place through Saturday April 5. The set includes three patterns: Adjacent (the hat with the large leaves and folded brim), Approximate (the hat with the smaller leaves and straight brim), [...]
Monthly Reminder
Do you live in Wisconsin? If so, go vote for Judge Susan Crawford on Tuesday April 1. Do you know anyone in Wisconsin? If so, reach out to them and ask them to vote for Judge Susan Crawford. Yes, even if it feels so very very very awkward to do [...]
Pocket full of Posies, Part 4
Now that you're weaving away, you can totally change colors. I mean you don't have to...no one will make you. But you can. Which I suspect means many of you will. So let's talk about how! Because really, if you do it right, it comes out pretty cool! If [...]
Help me pick!
TL;DR: Which hat should come out next week? Whichever hat comes out next week will be available both as a stand alone pattern and as part of a collection with the other hat, some matching mitts, and maybe at some point a cowl if I get excited (the other patterns will only [...]
Pocket full of Posies, Part 3
Once your spokes are in place, you can finally start weaving! This is the fun bit. It's shockingly easy and startlingly quick. No really, I have a hard time stopping once I get going. It looks a little something like this once you get started. If you could use something [...]

Less hole, more decoration
I tried. I tried 'subtle.' I really did. But subtle mends on fine gauge knits, especially if you don't have matching yarn, are actually far, far more difficult than Big, Boisterous, Dramatic mends. Plus infinitely less cheerful. And I dunno about you, but I don't currently have the necessary fortitude [...]
Overcome
I had the best of intentions. When I took the christmas tree down in late December, I fully intended to get the ornaments tidied up and put away in short order. But then I found myself somewhat overcome by events. And then it was January. And it was cold. And [...]
Colonization
The closet was overflowing. The sort of overflowing where finding what you need requires pulling three things out and runs a not insignificant risk of avalanche. The sort of overflowing where you avoid putting things away properly because you know it's going to require a game of tetris, so you [...]
