One of those moments
It has been an absolutely beautiful autumn. It’s lasted longer than I thought was possible in this place. We normally have 2 seasons (summer and winter) with about a week of transition in between, but fall has been long, luxurious and sensual this year.

Pattern Release: Dimorphous Mittens
It all started with Norma (doesn’t it always 😉 )… She sent me this sketch of a mitten that was dancing around in her brain. A double mitten that would keep her hands warm through all of the levels of Vermont winters. Norma provided the concept, and I worked out the details. I present to […]
Finally exhaling with relief
Having survived a week of all-day computer software trainings at work, I am now staring down a week of stay-at-home vacation. This break from work is much needed as I was starting to feel overwhelmed and trapped and very very cynical about my job. When facing a break, I tend to frantically start typing up […]
Socks Galore!!
I found my camera cable after having it lost for a while (when I moved everything around to put an eliptical in my house) and just last night got around to finding it. This week is full of LONG hours of training at my full-time job (I worked 10 hours yesterday and barely scratched the […]
