Sneaky ends
It can be tricky to weave in your ends when you can't get to the back of your fabric to hide them. This video over on instagram shows how I handle it. It works perfectly (so well that it can actually be tricky to find them if you ever need [...]
Chilled
It's the first properly cold morning of the season here. The kind where you step outside (still in your jammies because that's been fine for the last six months and you've sort of forgotten about coats) and gasp and remember that winter is on its way. And, while I'm not [...]
A bad sign?
Is it a good sign or a bad sign that I kept seeing this out of the corner of my eye and reaching out to pick it up and take a drink? Like more than once. Significantly more than once. And no, the world absolutely does not need knitted marshmallows. [...]
October Housekeeping
The penguin buddies would like to invite you over a sledding party followed by a marshmallow roast. Do be sure to wear your mittens. Monthly housekeeping post (with details on what's coming down and what's coming next over on patreon) is up. Because sometimes, when the whole damn world is [...]
Monthly Reminder

Less sticky
I dunno about your grocery store, but my grocery store occasionally has those GIANT marshmallows, the ones that are nearly the size of a toddler's fist. And they always seem like a good idea, but they are, in reality, nearly impossible to toast evenly and more than a little challenging [...]
Liaison
Gwen has proven to be a very adept tentacle wrangler. Relations between the townsfolk and the tentacled overlords are sure to improve now that she's acting as liaison between groups involved. Should you find yourself in need of your own penguin assistant, the pattern for our little friend should be [...]
Toasting forks
There is, I regret to inform you, literally nothing preventing you from waking up one morning and deciding 'I must knit an entire bag full of marshmallows before I can know peace in this world.' Nothing save your good sense and sense of restraint. And we all know I'm not [...]
Swimmingly
Ok, so I know he's made a few brief appearances, but I don't think you've been properly introduced to our little friend here. Which really, seems like a shame. Because I suspect the two of you will get along swimmingly.
