Remember how I said you run a little line of the color you use on the brim all the way up the side of your hat? Yeah, there are a couple reasons for that!⁠ First, it just looks cool (I'll show you the tiny starburst it makes on the top [...]

Expound is out on both ravelry and payhip! It's a perfect way to turn little bits of leftover yarn into something absolutely magical, and it's 15% off with the code STITCHED for the first few days it's out. Look, no one is more surprised than me. But it turns out, [...]

For those of you concerned that things have been too staid, too practical, too sensible of late? Fear not. The uncharacteristic stretch of respectable propriety is coming quickly to an end. I'm fairly certain not one single one of you will find a pile of knit tentacles to be in [...]

Everything's all set for this to come out Tuesday! As always when new patterns come out, there will be copies available through the Community Supported Pattern fund. That's the program I've set to let folks who don't have room in their budgets for a pattern right now still get the [...]

Ahem. Remember that pretty little purple hat I finished back in (mumble mumble mutter snuffle ahem) February (snuffle mumble look, it's been a busy year, ok)? The one that was almost alarmingly simple though still rather fetching? The one I said was simple for it was destined to be adorned? [...]

One last post to answer questions that came up as we talked about this! 1) The pattern is Constellate. It's not currently available, but reknitting it does indeed mean I plan to bring it back! If you want to hear when I do, you know what to do. 2) I [...]

Someone's wondering if I couldn't just photoshop the hat back to glory. And sure, probably, more or less? In fact, I tried (this pic is heavily edited)! But I try to be circumspect in my editing, both because I'm Super Bad At It, and because I want my pictures to [...]
