It’s a quick one I tell you! And just so lovely. I knit this in BMFA Socks that Rock Mediumweight, in Mossay, a really beautiful color.

After knitting a LOT of lace I’ve taken a bit of a break…but now I’m back and really enjoying myself! I don’t know if we’re in a season or what, but I’m having so much fun that I want to share my latest project. Nypon…just cast on about three days ago and already and I’m [...]

With Anne Hanson! I’m so excited. I have not actually knit … at all this year. I’ve just been so busy. But Anne Hanson is coming to Austin and I just snagged the last spot in one of her classes and I can’t wait. I get to take both of these: Advanced Lace Knitting Saturday [...]

I don’t have any pictures yet but I’m knitting non-stop on wisp, enlarged to be a more traditional rectangular shape. I’m using malabrigo sock, which is nice and soft and should be great for a soft shawl, but I don’t think it would be too good for socks or anything needing more structure. After this [...]

I guess this qualifies as my first fall lace since I finished it on 9/27 (begun on 9/16). It’s Spring Leaves and I knit it in DIC Baby. It took all 700 yards plus a few extra from some leftover yarn, to bind off. I like it but it’s too small for me; I’ll be [...]

I guess I was in a blocking mood this morning, because I finally got this shawl blocked. I knit it from August 21–30 and it has been languishing since then waiting for me to block it. I’m so glad I finally did because it is dramatically improved. The yarn is Fleece Artist BFL in DK [...]

I am participating in the “small shawl wars” over on Ravelry and just started and finished this really sweet shawl for my “victim.” The pattern is Dover Castle which I love and will be repeating for myself. It’s very easy but looks really nice finished (I think). The picture is pretty bad since it is [...]

I bought a bunch of yarn on vacation last week and wanted to knit some of it RIGHT AWAY. So I’ve cast on for Clothilde in Fleece Artist BFL DK, colorway “Ireland.” No official “in progress” pictures yet but here’s one of where I was winding the yarn while my youngest son played in the [...]

I have two friends with new baby girls, the lucky ducks, so I gave into my long-standing desire to buy the pattern Ramona Ruth. I’ve knit up one of the dresses, and it came out so cute! arty-farty photo: and a close up of the lace: the yarn is STR lightweight in Sweet Pea, which [...]

And I finished just in time for my sister-in-law’s birthday (it’s one of her presents). This is Veronik Avery’s Lace Ribbon Scarf pattern and it is really simple; very easy to memorize and “read” so you don’t even need to carry the pattern around, although the pattern itself is also very short so not difficult [...]
