I would love to tell you that the Aspen Grove pattern is done and ready to go out on October 1st, but it’s not. I got about 15 min. this morning to work on it before starting my new job (going well, but feeling overwhelmed). Plus I feel like I’m drowning in some legal matters […]

Blue Waves
Thanks for all the great comments about the shawl! I’m glad you like it! Amongst the shawl knitting and the being stalled with the shawl knitting, I knit a pair of socks. Pattern: Mock Wave Cable Socks from Favorite Socks Yarn: Regia 4-ply with wee stripeys. From The Loopy Ewe, included in my Loopy Groupie […]
Aspen Grove Shawl Debut
The Aspen Grove shawl is done…. and I love it. It seems when I struggle with a design, I love it all the more when I block it out and see how beautiful it really is. The shawl is designed in 3 parts*. Each of the 4 repeated wedges of the shawl begins with a […]
Test Knitters Needed
Okie, I need test knitters for the Serpentine Mitts. I will be offering 3 sizes and I need a knitter for each of them. Sizing is measured by hand circumference. I can have yarn sent to you, but then I will require the pieces back. If you want to keep the mitts, then provide your […]

A gathering of random
1. A moment of silence, please, for Robert Jordan and the Wheel of Time series. After battling a horrible disease, the writer of one of my favorite (and sadly unfinished *sob* fantasy series is dead). The thought of never knowing what happens with Rand, et.al. fills me with uneasiness, but thank you for the hours […]
Horrah for the return of pictures!

Pattern: My Seraphim Shawl pattern, available through the store here. Yarn: Wild Geese Fibres alpaca, 90% natural black and 10% dyed blue. The skein had 1300 yards and I still have a pretty […]
Lack of blogging as well as lack of pictures.
I keep writing posts, but I don’t think any of them should be published. They’re all complex insensible rambling about things I have to do or things I hate doing, or things I am having a hard time focusing on. I need to just spend some time getting outside of my own head, but it […]
Things I love
and of which I think you should be aware. 1. This letterpress stationery from Paper Source. In fact, I love the whole line. 2. Fabric shopping bag made from the template of a plastic shopping bag! It’s even got a little pocket to fold it up into so you can carry it in your purse! […]
Shawls FTW*!
I’m wearing Hidcote and one of the students came through and said I look very elegant today! She said it looked like wiki(qiviut) though… Vindication! HAHAHAHAHAH! *for those not in the gaming “know”. “FTW” means For The Win!
