I also finished this one way back, and had been wearing it, but hadn’t blocked it yet. So I took the time to block it on Friday and got some photos. I love it even more now that it’s blocked. Pattern: Phyllo Yoked Pullover by Norah Gaughan from Knitting Nature. Raveled Yarn: 6 skeins of […]

A picture every day, but no pictures of this
I knit a super quick shawl in between big projects, as a sort of palate cleanser for knitting. It took all of a day and a half, and I finished it on June 8th, so the photos have been almost 2 months coming. I wanted to knit something that would be quick, simple and a […]
The Jam Season Begins
17-365 Originally uploaded by mimsical Over the last week I made 6 batches of jam. 2 batches each of Strawberry, Strawberry Mango, and a new experiment this year… Strawberry Honeydew. I’m still kind of on the fence about whether the honeydew is good in the jam. It has a very fresh and green taste, but […]
Secret Pink Lace
Ekho approves of the Neighborhood Fiber Company silk I’m working with. He curled up around my knitting when I wasn’t looking. I’m a ball of contradictions lately. It’s nice to be working on a big lace project again, but I’m also longing for some simple, mindless knitting too. And not just in my knitting. I […]
Pinstripes Are Sexy!
I got pictures yesterday of the Pinstripe Sock I worked up in Isager yarns for Knit-Purl to take to Sock Summit as a kit. The pattern will also be available later as a download and for wholesale purchase. If you’re going to Sock Summit, check out Knit-Purl’s booth. They’ll have it in a bunch of […]
1-365. And thus it begins
1-365 Originally uploaded by mimsical I decided to join the 365 project and take a picture everyday, and then I went completely NUTS and went for the whole “Self Portrait” angle as well. Nuts because I usually despise pictures of myself. Things are going along pretty busily for me. I’ve got a bunch of designs […]
Exhausted!
I’ve been home for 4 days, but I’m still exhausted and all I want to do is sit on my couch and watch Star Trek: Deep Space 9 (anybody else totally in love with Odo?). As expected, I came home with no dearth of ideas and creative stimulation from TNNA. The sheer knitting brilliance that […]
Heading to Columbus…

A bird in hand is worth 4 in the tree?
A nest appeared in the tree just outside my apartment. The branch is at eye level, and 3 or 4 feet from the edge of the balcony. Not really the best place for a nest if you want it secluded from people, or roaming neighborhood cats… I’ve been sneaking out to check on the nest […]
