Now that you’ve done the important bit…

So, I'm very much hoping that everyone reading this who can vote already *has* voted...right?  Right!  Well now that you have that all taken care of, how about voting on some delightfully trivial stuff instead. I'm considering grabbing two favorite patterns each from Knitter's Curiosity Cabinet I, II, and III, [...]

Kinked

So I mentioned before that this yarn, gorgeous though it is, is a little bit kinky straight from the cake. That's an artifact of the dyeing process.  A lot of gradient yarns like this are machine knit into blanks, dyed, and then wound into cakes (the dyer who made this [...]

Let’s do that again…

So...if you've been here for a very very very long time, you just might remember that back in November and December of 2015, I knit a hat and some cuffs to go with it. They were out of what is very possibly my favorite purple yarn ever, they had absolutely [...]

I like big books and I cannot lie…

There's something about a giant book that just feels deeply satisfying.  It's solid and substantial and reassuringly permanent.  And this?  Well this totally qualifies! It's Interweave's new 100 Knits (as always, amazon links are affiliate links), and they were kind enough to send me a copy (I've got a sock [...]

Yarn…sometimes I just need to buy yarn

So I did, alas, not go to Rhinebeck this year (I've gone before...but I get rather quickly overwhelmed by All The People and sort of want to just...leave...leave at once).  But that does not mean I didn't spend the weekend playing with yarn.  I ordered myself something new (translation, I've [...]
