I’ve been spinning a fair amount lately so rather than finishing sweaters and things I’ve been making yarn. Look at this! I bought this cheap practice wool to play with and I never thought it would turn out so lovely! I’ve got the itch to spin more than one ounce now because I have no [...]

Shop update on Monday! I put together a color card of all my current colorways… 14! A fine start if you ask me. I especially love my Outlander yarns, fm Pink is my favorite and Peacock is utterly gorgeous. Photos do no justice. Anyway, I’ve put up two shots of each colorway (save Samhain) to [...]

I did some dyeing over the weekend! Most was for custom orders, but I’ll gab about them anyway. If you’d like to know what the fm stands for in fm Pink, follow the link to my flickr page. I already posted what this yarn is going to become… I plan on casting on by the [...]

I finished a palindrome cowl last week, I think it came out very nice… but it itches something fierce. A palindrome is the same forwards as it is backwards and this pattern is a palindrome cable. If you flip it inside out its the same on the other side. It seems daunting, but its really [...]

What else is better than knitting while its raining? Knitting outside while its raining! Yesterday was Knitterpalooza, which consisted of a local yarn shop hop (which I missed) and some outdoor knitting, drinking (water) and eating. Rain or shine! And it was rain rain rain all day long. We knitters persevered, however, and somehow survived [...]

I’ve been pretty busy! Tuesday night our guild had a dyeing party. It was a ton of fun, although I never got around to dyeing anything. I went over the next day to use up some dye and hang out a bit. Here’s what I ended up with… In other sporting news, I’ve been knitting [...]

I finished writing my first pattern last night. Scratch that, I finished editing my first pattern last night. The original Eclipse Sock was supposed to be a black sock with a red cable, meant to represent the cover of the book. As I sent the pattern out to be tested people started telling me how [...]
