If I could do it for you, I would…
I'm going to sound like a broken record, but I want you to block your knits. Even for tiny things. ESPECIALLY for tiny things. Now, someone's going to say 'but I don't know hooooooooow.' Which, ok. Blocking little things can sometimes take a bit of extra ingenuity. But that's why [...]
Mood
I mean...sometimes you simply must stop what you're doing, raid your stash for the perfect yarn, and knit a peach. A tiny, round, perfect peach. I shall call her Nancy, and I assume she'll save the world.
Nestled
Nestled is out, and for the next few days, it's 10% off with the code SNUGGLED. Now look, I know this isn't for everyone. Some of you are looking at this and thinking huh, well, that sure is...unusual. And if that's you, I get it. You should totally wander off and [...]
Fall
It's cool enough to reach for a sweater, and around here, that means this ancient, lovely thing. It also means patching up the latest round of holes (seriously, the fabric is thinner than a tshirt, it gets tiny holes if you so much as look at it). Luckily, that's something [...]
Simple
Yesterday I found myself in my local graveyard, sitting on the ground by a mossy tree stump, carefully wrapping tiny wooden dolls in wooly capes and tucking them inside knitted leaves so I could take pretty pictures of them. And, because brains are tremendous storehouses of every stressful thing that's [...]
And now for something a bit lighter
I could tell you a story. I could tell you about tiny capes and perfectly shaped hoods and tying tiny bows. But I'm not going to. I'm just going to show you these and count on you to imagine it all for yourself. Because I'm pretty sure you can imagine [...]
Timelines, Tariffs, and Changing Truths (or why there likely won’t be a book next year)
I've written and published at least one book a year since 2012. I love books. I probably won't do one next year. I want to tell you why. To do that, I have to talk a little about how books are made, how they're priced, and, oddly enough, tariffs. I [...]
You didn’t think I left the tops open by accident did you
So those leaves? The rainbow mountain of ridiculous leaves? Yeah. They need something to go in them don't you think? Something as absurdly cute and ridiculous as they are? It seems only reasonable. That's my story and I'm sticking to it. [pextestim pex_attr_set="looking-for-this-pattern" pex_attr_autoplay="false"][/pextestim]
I mean at least it’s seasonally appropriate, right?
Once upon a time there was a knitter with a short attention span. A short attention span and a fondness for cute things. If you showed her a cute tiny thing...a thing she could knit in one sitting, she'd be delighted. She'd knit it again and again and again. Even [...]
Abeyance (plus giveaway)
Abeyance is out, it's 10% with the code LOOPY, and I've got yarn to give away. Now, I feel like I should offer you some sort of marvelous story here. Preferably the kind with disaster narrowly averted and quick-witted banter and possibly some sort of riveting chase scene. But that's [...]
