You don’t necessarily need a sweater’s quantity of yarn to knit a sweater. My new Orbital Jumper used up most of my scraps and leftovers. It’s cozy, warm and uniquely mine. Plus, what’s on my needles now and I finally have a craft room instead of an office with an ironing board in the corner!
In this episode, I talk about overcoming obstacles like working colorwork flat by purling back backwards. Plus, more hearty recipes from Six Seasons.
I finished a test knit using Tidal Yarns and some fringe. Plus, new cast ons, fiber-y events, stitching a self-portrait, the return of #powerpantry, and a poem suited to the times by Kay Ryan.
An update on new sewn and knit garments, teaching and planning for classes, a quilting retreat, and Rhinebeck-bound.
Fall festival season continues with a trip to the Southern Adirondack Wool & Arts Festival to meet the men behind two new yarn companies.
It’s fiber festival season and knitting is in full gear!
Once and for all … I commit M1L and M1R to memory. Two nearly, oh so nearly, finished knitting projects, a new one on the horizon, sewing the Plover Pouch, and a new frontier in education. Plus, a poem featuring allusions to sewing and needlework by Samiya Bashir.
I’ve been making progress on two knitting projects and just finished a hand-sewn top with curved piecing. Plus, an excerpt from my current read about owls!
