Summer knitting, had me a blast.
A shop that sells my beadwork has depleted their stock and asked for some more. So I put aside my double pointed knitting needles and picked up my crochet hooks. The colours are a...
I used the pattern Augusta by Lena Marie Gjerald to knit these gloves in two colours. It uses a mock cable that is easy to knit and looks good. The gloves fit well because of the...
This is a project that kind of stopped me in my tracks when I saw it while scrolling Ravelry. It’s such a fun contrast of a semisolid color worked in stockinette stitch and a more...
I've finished knitting the green socks, though I still have to sew non slip fabric on the soles. I started another pair of entrelac mittens while I was preparing the yarn for the...
I've finished knitting the blue socks. They're for an order. I spent much of yesterday spinning the wool for the next pair. I dyed it this morning. It'll soon dry in the winter su...
Sometimes it's all about hypnotizing yourself with color that changes really, really slowly. (Bonus: an odd little flash sale on a cute Freia bundle.)
Marl-maxing: the great new way to tidy up your yarn collection.
If you’re looking for a fun project to play with brioche knitting, check out the My Buddy knitting pattern/recipe from Casuarinagirl on Ravelry. This project doesn’t include a bri...
Like some knitting projects, social progress feels impossible until it is made.
On Saturday, a friend of mine handed me an old, crocheted coat hanger cover and asked me if I knew how it was done. Mmm, no. I said I'd have a go at figuring it out. It was easy t...
There is something very satisfying about turning a basket of yarn into something people actually want to buy. Of course, there is also that slightly less romantic moment when you r...
Generally I like knitting patterns where I feel like you can use whatever yarn you have (because my stash is big enough and I want to use it, thanks) and make a successful project....
Shadow knitting is one of those techniques that makes you feel ridiculously clever once it clicks. At first glance, the finished project usually looks like ordinary stripes. Nice s...
My spinning is pretty consistent, helped by the commercial preparation of the fleece, but I'm not a machine. I think I must have spun the brown wool a little thicker than usual, s...
I’m envious of anyone who can produce items like these. They are beautiful. Try as I may, I just can’t crochet. I can knit OK and over the years I’ve made some pretty good stuff...
The other day I saw a post from Pinterest about trends for summer and it said one of them was “cultivating whimsy.” Well, I don’t know where Pinterest has been all this time, but...
Oh my goodness we’ve had so many wonderful things arrive this week! From old favourites to brand-new treasures, our shelves are overflowing! Books Our dear friend Dee Hardwicke’s b...
What goes into the travel tote bag? A lot of elaborate schemes, that's for sure.
There’s something extra satisfying about knitting children’s sweaters. They’re small enough to feel manageable, sweet enough to make you say “just one more,” and they don’t require...
I've finished two beaded crochet bracelets. I've just been working on them during the day, knitting socks in the evenings. I can knit without looking at my work, which is good whe...
I guess the trend of little scarves and bandanas isn’t going away, and there’s a good reason for that. These little projects are fast, and they’re good for beginners because of the...
I had to take Jack to the doctor yesterday. No problem, I thought, I'll knit in the car instead of knitting at home. But when I opened my knitting bag, I discovered that I'd left...
Fooling around with the skinny Japanese yarn that clearly wants to do a scene with me.
