Teena in Toronto reminded me on Sunday morning that it was my 5th Blogiversary. 5 years. Holy Mother of Meat. I’ve been meaning to blog again more often and this might just be the catalyst to push me to do it. A broken camera lens and a bunch of crazy are my excuses this time, […]

Really out of it.
Coming home today from spending a week at my sister Laura’s house, canning large bushels of produce, basting 4 quilts, taking family portraits, and helping care for her children. Frankly, I’m exhausted and really eager to be home. As much fun as the kids are, they sort of remind me that I really don’t want […]
Stuffies for Princess Wiggles
My little brother (see here) and his wife are having a baby. For now they’re calling her Princess Wiggles. I might still make a sweater for her, but for now, 3 stuffed toys seems adequate 🙂 Details on Ravelry, from left to right: Elijah, Sophie, Otto I just finished Elijah, pretty quickly after Otto. I […]
Shop Bugs
Hi all, I’m having some trouble with my MimKnits shop SSL, and you may run into problems with it until I can get this web host thing figured out, so I would suggest if you’re going to purchase that you purchase through Ravelry.

This weekend alone produced 14 Quarts and 1 pint of dill pickles, a batch of amazingly wonderful honeydew and nectarine ice cream, and a growing crush […]

Feeling the differences
I was hit in the face by the drastic changes of the last year (6 or 7 months really) today on the way home from visiting family. C had taken the week off for his birthday to relax and do some fun things, which necessitated a scaled-back work week for me, since keeping him company […]
Paypal errors
Due to paypal’s downtime today, some transactions were not able to go through, or failed mid-transaction. If you purchased today and didn’t get an order confirmation or are unable to access your downloads, please send me an e-mail and I’ll get it sorted out for you. The shop is up and paypal appears to be […]
Pattern Releases: Tart Lime and Cloisters
I’ve got 2 patterns that went up today. Cloisters Wrap…. Cloisters recalls the architecture of the buildings that housed monastic communities of women. Delicate traceries of lace recall the ornate grills that separated the cloister from the public in visiting parlours, while peaked arches mimic graceful spires and alcoves. This wrap is worked from one […]
Go wish Anne a happy birthday!
