Magic tricks
It seems only fair for a mushroom to know a magic trick or two, right? And one of my favorite tricks with these is that you can get them to stand up properly...as long as you're willing to do a bit of magic of your own. Now, the ones with [...]
Never ending swatches
Ok, we did swatches parts one and two already, let's see if we can't fit the last three all in at once! I want all the bonus points for reblocking this swatch so I could take a decent photo of it for you. Yarn is Chickadee by Quince and Co [...]
Foraged
I should probably spin you a tale. I should tell you some enchanting story about where these came from and how they happened. But I'm not going to do that. I'm just going to tell you that Foraged is out, and it's 10% off for the next few days with [...]
Yet more swatches
We're picking up where we left off last time and showing off more swatches for this year's book (which is coming in, checks watch, um, about three weeks). We'll start with this one. Yarn is Signature Sock Yarn by OnTheRound in the color Robin’s Egg. I am a sucker for [...]
Stockpile
So sometimes, you are outside cleaning up your yard after a storm (almost as though you were a responsible grownup who made good decisions) and you Just Keep Seeing Acorn Twins. Not only that, but you keep seeing acorn twins where one half has the acorn still attached and the [...]
Shortly…
The pattern for these is due out Tuesday if all goes according to plan. If you want a heads up (and a discount) when the pattern drops, make sure you're on the list (mailing list folks always get a bigger discount than the one I post here). And while you wait, [...]
Big Yarn, Beautiful Lace Knits, review and giveaway

Swatches…so many swatches
It's high time I start showing off some of the bits and pieces for the upcoming book! And for me, that means swatches. So Many Swatches. Now, if I were cooler, I'd have this pinned out and under tension for you. Because this is one of those stitches that just absolutely pops when [...]
Bite
So folks who bought the Peached pattern already know this, but there was a little something extra in there. I included instructions on how to modify your peach a bit and turn it into an apple. But I didn't actually have an apple knit quite yet (and wow did I [...]
Show off some more
Ok, yarns part two (because I couldn't put all that pretty in just one post, you might die). This is Apex by Seven Sisters Arts in the color Water Nymph. Ok, something a little different here. We've got our old friend superwash merino, but instead of adding nylon or cashmere, this [...]
