Here is a pretty little thing I finished up while in the airport on the way to Las Vegas. It was made for my best friend out of the skein of Tilli Tomas Rockstar I got from Mom for my birthday (oooh, shiny). It was also my first sewing project in a long, long [...]

I admit it: I’m one of those knitters who just can’t keep my needles in my bag. I knit at work over my lunch break. I knit in the gym while I’m waiting for kickboxing to start. I knit on the sidewalk after the gym while I’m waiting for my ride, which [...]

Here are the photos of the Christmas knits I did for my coworkers. Nothing complicated!
Lauren Kent’s Prisoner of Azkaban Scarf, with a star stuck on to hide a snag.
Tudora from knitty.com.
Kind of a Jayne hat for kind of a Jayne.
Just a simple fluffy sparkly scarf!
These were all pretty well received, even the ugly hat, [...]
Internet fame! Plus a sock.

You guys, you guys. I am so excited. My Ribby Wrist Warmers are now the ones that are up on the pattern page at Ravelry. I’m internet famous! Well, sort of. I’ll take it!
Almost done with the Christmas knits for my coworkers. I won’t post them yet, because I’ve [...]

I now teach high school English and live in a city fortunate enough to have wonderful yarn supplies and gaggles of knitters who collect [...]

Right. So I just moved to California a few months ago, and left my stash in Iowa. My sister will appreciate it! I said. She’s a better knitter than I am! I’ll start my new life all over from scratch, with less clutter.
And yet somehow here I am a few months later raiding Knitpicks [...]

I actually knit this a while ago, but hadn’t gotten around to uploading photos of the finished project. I really enjoyed this shrug. I saw it knitted up at my LYS, tried it on, and fell in love. So comfy! So girly! Not too difficult for someone who’d never knitted [...]

So my best friend, a novice knitter, was up this weekend.

She wanted something [...]
