Reminders
This is your occasional reminder to put set your thumb stitches aside on waste yarn (rather than a spare needle or a cable needle) if you have the choice. Yes, that sometimes means finding scissors (to snip off a few inches of the yarn) or a darning needle (to run [...]
Reading assignments
You know that feeling when you walk in to the middle of a conversation and you can tell there's something really important going on and you want to know more...but you can also tell it is not the moment to interrupt and ask someone to catch you up? Yeah. That's [...]
So let’s talk thumbs
I mentioned last time I had to be a bit more mellow than I normally am and embrace a little bit of chaos because of the long color changes on this yarn. The left and right mitts won't match exactly, and that's just ok. But...that doesn't mean I've totally embraced [...]
And some matching mitts…
As is traditional in these parts, I decided the hat was lonely and needed some friends. So I cast on some mitts to go with it. (This is the bit where I remind you that today is the last day to take 10% off the hat with the code SUGGEST...so if you're [...]
Out of order
So some time very soon now, I'll do the thing I'm supposed to do. I'll show you the first swatch, and the second swatch, and the third swatch, and I'll show you the yarn I bought, and I'll tell you about my thoughts and plans. That's all the stuff I [...]

And done!
Hatty McHatterson is done, blocked, ends woven in, and has wandered out to the woodpile for photos (yes, we do need to tidy the woodpile and arrange it better for photos...yes, this is absolutely something I fully intend to do...I need to keep my neighbors convinced I'm a little strange). [...]
We made it!
Everyone still here? Starting to wake up from the holiday fog and remember how to eat real food and wear real clothes and more or less be normal people instead of the cookie stuffed, pajama wearing, movie watching, midday napping couch gremlins we've been for the last week or two? [...]
Straw stars
I posted these on instagram the other day and folks lost their everloving minds. I've tracked down the stuff you need to make them, and linked it all up here under the Straw Stars tab. You should know a couple of things before you fall too much in love with them. [...]
