I’ve gotten some emails and comments about the downloadable patterns on the pattern page. *scratches head* I’m not sure what the issue is at this point, but I will find out! If you can’t get onto Ravelry to download the patterns, hold tight! I will have a solution soon.
Update:

The Eclipse Socks Pattern is [...]

These socks were inspired by the cover of the book Eclipse by Stephenie Meyer, the third in the Twilight Saga.
You will knit both socks in black with a red cuff, toe and heel. The ribbon and any other added details are all added later. You have lots of options with this pattern too. The ribbon [...]

I got pretty caught up in my 52 in 52 challenge this year and pretty disuaded by almost all of my knitting projects. I’m trying to get back in the saddle with an easy peasy MKL Cowl by my girl Rilana. The cowl is actually for Richelle Mead whom I’ll be seeing in person on [...]

Been committing craft adultery. I haven’t been knitting. I’ve been cross stitching. More to come soon I’m sure!

The Great Sweater!

I’ve gotten past about half the ribbing I need for the rest of the body. Isn’t it super cute?! I don’t know how much ribbing I’ll add to the neckline because I like where it is right now. Still debating on the sleeve length… Its a full length sleeve in the pattern but I like [...]

A non-knitting contest

There’s information on my other blog about a contest to win a free Green Bottle. It’s a stainless steel water bottle. Uber cool.

In less than a week, I went from that….
To this…

It’s the Cozy V-Neck Sweater from Fitted Knits by Stefanie Japel.
This sweater is even easier than her One Skein Wonder pattern (of which I have made several, several shrugs.) The increases are insanely easy and I’m surprised I’ve gotten this far into it without getting bored. [...]

Look, my third MKL Cowl. There’s just something about this cowl that I adore. Its deceptively simple, it drapes wonderfully and cowls aren’t fussy like scarves. Plus its cotton, which makes it oh so soft. I intend to make more of these. Lots more.

Oh  Noros, why did you both have to go green at the [...]
