Flee
So I'm fleeing the country on short notice once again. Well, compared to previous flights, this one is actually with a huge amount of notice...whole days in fact. The summarized version is that I'll be in Toronto this Saturday. It's been a shockingly long time since I've been to Toronto, [...]
Mystery Yarn
I have a mystery yarn. Not a mystery yarn as in 'I lost or threw away the tag, sure in the knowledge that I would remember the info' (note to self, you will not remember). No, a different sort of mystery. I totally have the tag. But the tag does [...]
One Down
See, I told you it was making progress. I'm rather taken with these. What do you think, do they work for you too? The color here is a tiny bit off, but it's snowing outside and I don't feel like either putting on my coat or going outside in my [...]
Oh the Weather Outside was Frightful…
But my hat was so delightful! See, I told you the hat was much cuter on. And warm...very very warm. I'm fairly sure I could stand outside in that bluster and blow for just about forever and my head would not be cold. (Please pardon the blowing hair, it really [...]
Happy New Year
I hope you all had just the sort of New Year's Eve festivities that you wanted (we watched Ghostbusters...what can I say, we're old, that's what we do). As promised, the first of the Knitter's Curiosity Cabinet patterns is available. I'm working with the wonderful Wendee of Hazel Knits on [...]
Less Than Prolific
I had all sorts of clever plans to avoid the dreaded blog silence over the holidays. And I mostly made it...there totally were posts. Just not as many (and not as knitting-rich) as I would like. It's mostly because I've been doing stuff other than knitting over the last few [...]
Just Right
I'm more or less in love with this hat. It's ridiculously simple, unreasonably tall, and quite possibly the warmest hat in the history of yarn. I can't decide how I like it best...as shown there (with the top flopped over), with the brim folded up once and only a bit [...]
No Really…It Will Be Cute
Back in March, I went to the Black Swamp Spinner's Guild Market Day. I bought pencil roving. I brought it home and, within a day or two, I cast on for a hat. It was a hat of epic failure. It was too big. Massively too big. Even for my [...]
Conductor
Last one...next post I promise actual wool. But today is my birthday and I'm going to be exactly as lazy as I want to be (hint: very). That means a short blog post, a breakfast featuring chocolate chip waffles made by someone else, some ridiculously simple yet oddly entrancing knitting, [...]
Dropped Stitch
I'm still being a totally lazy blogger and taking advantage of the cleverness of someone in the past to prevent the dreaded holiday silence. I am getting a bit of knitting done, but I can't show you. I'm swatching for something I want to submit somewhere (how's that for specific), [...]
