Wanna see how the Sock Stop* samples came out? You can watch me wiggle them around over here (for, despite my best attempts, I cannot actually convey in words all the things I can show in a video). The verdict seems to be that it does, indeed, make for a [...]

Hi there! If you're new to patreon and want to join us (or you just suddenly need to stitch some paper) you're in the right place! I'm pretty sure I've got everything you could want to know below. Quick Patreon Overview (because I know it can be daunting!): Patreon is [...]

"But aren't they slippery?!" is the most common question I get about knitted slippers. And my answer is always some version of "um, they're about as slippery as regular socks?"

So while there is apparently an untapped  market for both knitted snails and knitted seashells, I have yet to tackle either. I am, instead, firmly in the grips of slipper fever. Luckily it's rarely fatal...a long as you knit enough slippers. I shall do my best to survive this bout. [...]

I asked instagram what they thought this was, and a somewhat baffling number of folks decided the clear answer was...snails. Which, I regret to inform you, is not the answer. This time. Though now I have found myself spending a fairly shocking amount of time pondering how one would construct [...]
