Flair
There is something So Dam Satisfying about this stitch. I think it's because it's built around ribbing (which is easy and practical and functional always looks good) but has just enough flair that you don't get bored. And really, I know it looks a bit fancy (sort of like cables? [...]
Semblance
That pretty little bit of business? The one with the speckles & the big fat yarn? The one I knit in two sittings? It's out! It's called Semblance, and you can find it on ravelry and payhip. This is one of those magical patterns that looks so much more complicated [...]
Clap

Shenanigans
There...there might be shenanigans underway. This could quickly rise to the level of hi-jinks. All manner of absurdities are possible.
All done
