Last week at our knit night, Abby and I cast on for the Whisper Cardi (Rav link) together.
I’m using Knitpicks Shadow in Snorkel, and I really like the way the yarn is knitting up. It’s a heathered blue with green undertones so the color has a lot of dimension. It’s also insanely soft. Unfortunately, the [...]

A quick and dirty update
Oh, end of the semester–how you make me want to bang my head against the wall.
I have a ton of work to get done, and I am happy to report that I’m actually making progress. I feel like everything that was laid out before me was a gigantic boulder stuck in a rut in the [...]

Home Again, Home Again
We’re back from Wisconsin, which is frankly a little sad. I really, really, really, really hate living so far away from my family, especially from my dad.

I got a new catalog from KnitPicks this weekend, and I was really excited to see this fancy little thing (also apparently known as a Norwegian knitting thimble). This summer, I finally managed to master (I’m using that term rather loosely here) two-fisted stranded knitting when I made my Endpaper Mitts, and I enjoyed it [...]

Working through the Weekend
I just finished commenting on my tenth student draft of the day. My brain is officially mush. The depressing part is that I still have eighteen drafts to go. At least I’m more than half way done, right?
When I did reach the official half-way mark, I rewarded myself with a little break during which I [...]
