Quite Nicely
Ahem. That Will Do Quite Nicely Thank You. Quite nicely indeed. Now, we're not done...there are going to be several more columns of stitching and a few other bits of fancy business before we're done. But wow am I calling the proof of concept a success! Those bits of skinny [...]
Orderly
One of these days...one of these days I really want to do a project where I get like a dozen different worsted weight yarns, send them to a dozen different sample knitters, say 'knit me a tube with x/y/z stitches, put a/b/c ribbing on the bottom bit, then knit stockinette [...]
Dreamy
Oh, oh there we go. That's the creamy, dreamy, ever so slightly steamy vibe I was going for. So, as a reminder, this bit of knitting is going to be a canvas on which to embroider a whole heaping stack of fancy business. Which means that, to a far greater [...]
Recall
Ok folks, my yarn recall is...well...my yarn recall is spotty, but my past blog archives are extensive! And I have a Whole Damn Bunch of old emails loitering about in old folders in the depths of my hard drive. And between them, I've managed to track down this yarn. Looks [...]
Furry
Will I carefully pick any stray people/kitten hairs out of my knitting before proper photoshoots? Yes of course. Will I photoshop any sneaky ones right the heck on out of there after the shoot if I miss them ahead of time? Yup, to the best of my ability I will. [...]
Confluence
Oh. Oh my. Oh my yes. I've been noodling around on the edges of 'I should stitch some stuff on some knitting' for quite some time now and just never *quite* pulled together the right combination of yarns/stitches/motivation/energy all at the same time. But now? Well now I think I've [...]
Poke
Do I have a Significant Surplus of inexpensive, middling quality, cotton sweaters that I live in around the house during the half of the year when it's not either freezing or roasting? Yup. Do I have an intense longing for the details of hand knit sweaters and an absolute lack [...]
A brief excursion somewhere pretty
For reasons that elude me, some of you like to see what taking photos for patterns looks like. So since this was Fancy Schmancy Rolly Cart's first trip to this beach, I thought I'd bring you along! I've been doing this for a while, and I tend to bring a [...]
Coming on
I...I'm feeling a little embroidery project coming on. I rather enjoy embroidering on my knits these days. And I've got a cotton sweater that I threw in dyepot one day last summer, and then left lay out on the rocks in the garden for a few days sort of by [...]
Wow but we do depend on these little things a lot…
My phone decided it's tired of being a phone (I hear you buddy, I'm tired of being a human) & will instead be an expensive & not very functional paperweight. I'm working a fix, but expect I'll be less around for a while on spaces like instagram and twitter and [...]
