Chamfer
I have some bad news. It's January. It's cold. It's dark. And it's probably going to be like this for a while. If I could help, I would. But the most I can do is offer a distraction, so it seems like the perfect time to bring Chamfer back out. [...]
Faith
So anything resembling lace (especially in dark yarn) looks like a pile of moldering spaghetti at some point in the proceedings. It's just a law. It doesn't mean you've done anything wrong. You just have to keep going and have a little faith. It will look much better when it's [...]
Not Enough
So the cowl was apparently not enough. I mean I had a whole extra skein of yarn sitting around, and I didn't want it to languish. (And who knows when this uncharacteristic tolerance of blue will wear off and I'll go back to my accustomed grays and browns.) So now [...]
Insufficient
According to the little weather gizmo on my shelf, it's 14 degrees outside. This is an entirely insufficient number of degrees. I do not love you enough to go outside in that, much less to drag poor Verity out to stand in the snow (even if I would drape her [...]
Continued Improvement
The Blue Thing of Blueness continues to amuse me (and to be very very blue). The edges are doing this marvelously structured flip. And the body of it is behaving perfectly (by which I mean 'doing what I wanted it to do, and looking good while doing it'). As predicted, [...]
This Calls for a Plan
Somehow 'making an editorial calendar' sounds terrifying. Let's just call it 'playing with markers and colored paper,' shall we? But whatever you call it, it's shaping up to be a good year, and I'm so glad you're along for the ride!
Vivid
So the most recent hat and mitts are done (and I'm in the middle of working on the pattern, don't worry). And the devious plan for the unreasonably interesting swatches has gotten a green light from the dyer, but we have to wait just a bit for all the lovely [...]
Penchant
I believe I promised you a new hat pattern before the winter was over. And since we've just now gotten our first properly cold days and bits of snow, this seems like the perfect time to bring these out. Penchant is now available on ravelry! And yes, there are totally [...]
Contrast
With the cuffs finished, my needles were empty (cough, mostly, cough), and I found myself in need of a project. I'd had an idea bubbling away in the back of my mind for a while now, and this seemed like the perfect time to play with it. It required two [...]
Zigzag
These are done, blocked, and ready to join the hat for their photo shoot. Said photo shoot should happen tomorrow, assuming the weather and my determination to get things done hold out. I'm taken with them, really I am. I was worried they (and really the hat that goes with [...]
