I’m not sure which I’m more in love with, the Zephyros Shawl, or my new camera! You can see the whole flickr set here. When I’ve struggled with a project I always get a little pissed off at it by the end. I’m less than pleased until I look at it through the lens of […]

Pattern Release: Flutter Scarf
May I present, the Flutter Scarf. Pattern available through my online shop. The yarn is an artisan laceweight from Skylark Yarns called Les Oiseaux. The colorways are beautiful and subtle, and the whole scarf took one skein of the yarn. Yarn Requirements: Skylark Yarns Les Oiseaux laceweight yarn (70 % alpaca/30% soy fiber, 440 yards) […]
Sooo long!
It seems like it’s been a long damn time since I released a pattern, and really… that’s true. The latest pattern release was November. November to February is just too damn long, wouldn’t you say? So here’s what on the burner and when it should be done. 1. Cleite Shawl – I didn’t have time […]
More on Zephyros
The knitting and blocking for Zephyros is done, but I have returned the loner camera to my dad and my new camera is not set to be here until later, so all I have is in progress pictures for you. Here is a detailed shot of the border: And detail of the turned short row […]
A sneak peek at Zephyros.
Thought you all might like the heads up. The ‘Lace in the Woods’ Retreat has been cancelled. If you were registered Jackie should be getting you a refund shortly. If you were planning on going, sorry! It sounded like it would be fun. But you know what they say about doors and windows and all […]

But I apologize because they’re crappy pictures. Turns out my camera’s flash board is broken, and while I COULD fix it, it would cost more to fix it than the camera is worth. So I had the camera place just put it back together so I can use it without a flash, but then they […]
Winter Sunday
The morning sun is struggling through the approaching storm clouds outside, but I am bundled in flannel pj pants and a hoodie, with felted clogs on my feet. In a minute I will go downstairs, cut myself a piece of Blackberry Galette* and pour a big handthrown pottery mug full of tea, British style with […]
A Random Wednesday Post
1. I feel super klutzy lately. I have been running into walls (although I think that has more to do with a messed up equilibrium due to sinus issues than klutzyness) and I managed to bruise the INSIDE of my right index finger and my left shin (in two separate incidents) QUITE badly. Although I […]
On Digital Publishing, Contracts, and Headaches.
Now that my technical difficulties are solved and my blog is running as it should, I thought I’d finally address something that’s been weighing heavily on my mind of late. So heavily, that it’s been responsible for my sluggish creativity and a bit of depression. The post is long, but please take the time to […]
