Less than scintillating
I mean I told you this was going to be less than scintillating for the first little while. The wee stripe friend provides more interest than I should probably admit, but it's still very much auto pilot knitting. But the nifty bits are coming. Just as soon as it's off [...]
Not terribly interesting
This will not be terribly interesting. Well, at least not until it's done. It's going to be a plain hat with just one wee tiny stripe up the side to alleviate the monotony. For now. Its day is coming. I super duper pinky swear it'll be pretty darn spiffy when [...]
More than one right way
I'm currently loving folded hems on hats. Folks tend to either think folded hems are Hard & Scary & Fancy, or they shrug and say sure I can do that. And I truly think which camp you fall into has more to do with how your brain is handling life [...]
Warn others
Wander over here if you want to watch how I actually did the darning on this one (because look, I do not feel like figuring out how to put videos on here, and instagram is making us all make videos anyway, so they can host the damn things). This is, [...]
February Housekeeping
I'm trying to get in the habit of doing a little housekeeping post once a month. The theory is that it will give me a place to run down what's going away, what's coming next, and what's in progress. Plus show off a little non-knitting something or other because we [...]
Still shoddy
Another day, another shoddy sweater from Madewell that fell apart way too soon. This one has a massive elbow blow out after three wears. Clothes shouldn't do this. A competently made sweater should last longer than this. Someone is for sure going to ask why I have so many of [...]
Take a look
You know what I hear all the time? Some variation of "I've never even seen a pattern like this before!" And I have to say, I kind of love hearing that. I try really hard to make my work special, and comments like that make me feel like I'm doing a [...]
You decide
Seeing as how restraint isn't my strong suit, I need you folks to decide if the wrapped variation finds its way into the embroidery project. If we hit the goal I set up by the time it comes out, I'll put it in. If we don't no big deal, [...]
Stunts
Look, sometimes you just want to show off. To do something solely because you can. To pull off a faintly ridiculous stunt. And let's be fair, that's absolutely what's going on here. Working this with six colors is...eclectic at best, possibly even distastefully excessive. But sometimes? Sometimes you just need [...]
Yes, you can sell things you knit
People often ask if they can sell things made from my patterns. I always say yes! You can do whatever you want with things made from my patterns. You can't sell the pattern itself without permission! But you can absolutely sell the things you've made from the pattern. As [...]
