Take me to your leader

So the hat is looking something like a space ship.  Not that this is necessarily a bad thing...but it is a bit unexpected. Now that's mostly because I've got a short row panel jammed onto a long, straight needle, so the fabric is all bent around. But if we put [...]

This will either be grand or…

So you know at the very end of winter? When the sky is still gray but one or two psychotic trees have put out the tiny, bright green leaf buds?  I've always loved that color combo, and it turns out I had some yarn that might just be able to [...]

Tippy top

As promised, here's the top of the hat. It hasn't quite been blocked yet (because blocking means I need to clean my sink, and that is just currently too hard), but you can still see it's going to be nifty. It does a lovely poufy, structured thing when you've got [...]

Constellate, how can I change my gauge?

We're having a little KAL for Constellate, and I promised I'd talk about a few ways you can modify the pattern as part of the festivities.  One of the easiest (and I think most fun) ways you could modify this pattern is to tweak your gauge. Now, the pattern is [...]

Constellate KAL

So, enough folks have asked that I think we should do a little knitalong for Constellate!  I've got us a thread set up on ravelry right over here.  If this has found its way onto your needles, I'd be delighted if you'd come show it off! Over the next week [...]

Mountains and Valleys

So it's done (yay), and my current biggest dilemma is whether I want to wear it so the mountain part is in front (so this side would be facing forward). Or with the valley part is in front (so this side would be facing forward). I suspect the actual answer [...]

And now we knit

This is at the point where we just go round and round and round until it's tall enough. Which shouldn't take too terribly much longer.  Maybe a few more inches... And, as usual, this one will have quick quick quick decreases (I have a plan for this little pinwheel looking [...]

Bigger and bigger

The hat continues to grow. I continue to like how ribbing looks and behaves slightly (ever so slightly) more than I dislike actually knitting it. And I am quite looking forward to watching these go careening about.  It should just about be consolation for all that ribbing. We're going to [...]

Constellate (plus giveaway)

Let's start the new year off with something special, shall we?  How about we get an awesome little hat on your needles.  I think Constellate might be just the thing! There's something undeniably satisfying about this hat.  It is, at its core, just a plain ribbed hat.  One by three [...]

Two down

One mitt two mitt red mitt blue mitt (well...purple mitts, but we'll call that a fair interpretation of the text). And, just because it's how these things go around here, a hat sort of leapt on the needles. to go with it.   [pextestim pex_attr_set="looking-for-this-pattern" pex_attr_autoplay="false"][/pextestim]
