I told you I was surgically implanting the perfect amount of slouch. I really really really meant it too (I generally do mean the things I say, at least I try to).⁠ Some answers to some questions I imagine someone out there has...⁠ Nope, you don't have to do this, [...]

I'm not sure why, but I'm right in the middle of a massive 'swatch, make a face, rip it out, repeat' dance right now. I've got literally dozens of swatches that are Really Quite Close But Not Exactly Right littered all over the house right now. ⁠ I think what [...]

Ok so this hat? This hat is a bit tall. That's because it's meant to be the perfect slouch hat. By which I mean "I shall be surgically implanting the perfect amount of slouch as part of the finishing such that I am never ever ever relying on my own [...]

I think I've figured out what I like about holding mohair along with another yarn (cough, or at least one of the things...it would be silly to pretend there's only one).⁠ It gives you a much wider range of practical gauges. Let me explain.⁠ The base yarn here is Seven [...]

I know. I know I really do. It doesn't look like much of anything just yet. But I promise, I know where this is going, and it will be the most unspeakably wearable hat in all the world. Just give me a little bit to get it past the 'um, [...]

This is transcribed from a twitter thread. But twitter threads tend to be a bit impermanent, and I wanted to keep a record of this here to point to as needed (though you can totally also go read it on twitter to see the replies/conversations that spring up around it).  [...]

I mean to be fair, I did swatch a few other combos before I settled in on the one I'll be using.⁠ Two strands of the Silk Cloud (bottom) held together were a bit wispier than what I want for this project. And two strands of a different, slightly darker, [...]

Sometimes? Sometimes if you can't find just the right yarn you simply make it instead.⁠ I want the drape that you get with a skinny yarn, but the halo that you get from fuzzy yarn, and I think,if all goes according to plan, that these should be just about perfect [...]
