Done! Er…for now…
And with that, I'm calling this patch of stitching done. The first bit of stitching was in a previous post, the middle bit is below. If you want to watch the progression of stitches on these, you can check out the embroidery tag on here and scroll backwards. Now, it's [...]
Unstoppable
Yeah, so apparently I should just give in and knit tiny things over and over and over again for the rest of time. It's looking like there are going to be a dozen variations on these (all made by slipping stitches, not with proper colorwork, because proper colorwork is scary [...]
Hoard
These are not proper knitting. They're not serious. They're not somber. They're not even a little bit practical. They're pretty much ridiculous. And they're just what I need right now. They're called Hoard, and you can grab them now on ravelry (and take 10% off with the code ACORNS). So [...]
Stitched
Yes, yes the cardigan is back. Remember it, the one I've been stitching on for, um, two years now on and off (scroll down)? Yeah, it's back. The fact that this gets so many holes is proof either that I'm too rough on my clothes, that it was too delicate [...]
Gather round
I really sort of want to just hide them all around the neighborhood and see if anyone notices... And before you ask, yes, there will be a pattern (and quite soon too, but I want to knit a few more first). But I want to talk about something for a [...]
Blame the moss
So there's a tree in our back yard. Well, there are several, but there's one in particular that has a root that runs right at ground level for a while. And between the two edges of the root is a little channel of the softest, fuzziest, most intensely green bit [...]
Tassels
Right...so the hats are adorable on their own. They are and I won't let you talk me out of believing that. But they are made even cuter by the shameless addition of tassels. Now, much as with pompoms, making tassels is easier with the right tools. I use this little [...]
Unabashedly Floofy
Look, these just are not a serious project. If that's what you're looking for, go make a sweater. Or a giant lace shawl. Or maybe even some socks. These are a few dozen yards of pure unbridled frivolity. And I should probably apologize for that...or like pretend it's got more [...]
Crabby
Yeah, so the outside world feels big and dark and scary. And while I probably should be doing something to at least pretend to try and help with that, today I'm really not. Today I'm picking crab apples from the trees in the yard (so tiny, so pretty, so sweet). [...]
Thither
Working on the theory that accessories are better in sets, allow me to introduce Thither. It's the perfect companion to the previous pattern, Hither. Because really, half the fun of being a knitter is having the cutest, most perfectly matched, accessories you can imagine! That's my story and I'm sticking [...]
