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 [...]

Mail Call
This has been an exceptionally fun mail week for me. Usually, all I get in the mail is a bunch of junk and forty billion bank statements (even though all of my accounts are supposed to be paperless).

Wisconsin, Here I Come
I’ve got about half an hour before we leave for the airport. Because I am an exceedingly intelligent person, I am setting out on this trip without any sleep. As a nearly-nocturnal being, I really should have known better than to schedule a 7:45a flight out of Cincinnati. But oh well. It just means that [...]

For reasons that are still not entirely clear to me, I decided to start a knitting/craft blog. I set the blog-creating process in motion a couple of months ago, but I’ve since been so paralyzed by the prospect of having to write a first post that the whole thing has just kind of languished. I [...]
