It’s been a million years since I posted and I’m really excited about this WIP so here she is 💁🏻‍♀️ yarn is perhaps the oldest in my stash, Touch of Linen. Pattern is by .

Pattern calls for fi*****ng and this yarn is not quite that, knitting a size smaller than I would usually make and by some miracle it’s fitting perfectly as of my first try on last night. Had to order more yarn to finish it and Lord knows the dye lot won’t be the same so…wish me luck!

On Friday, February 3rd we said goodbye to sweet Roo. She passed peacefully at home surrounded by the people and dogs who loved her most. Roo was my soulmate and I am heartbroken, but I am also so grateful for our time together, and I would do it a million times over if I could.

I signed up to foster Roo in 2013, and was warned she did not like to be held. As anyone who has met Roo will tell you, this could not be further from the truth. From the moment Roo was in my arms, I knew she was home. My dad confirmed this when he met her that night, letting everyone in the room know she wasn’t going anywhere. Roo came everywhere with me, including a long weekend in Charleston with my mom and I the second weekend I had her. I bought us matching coats, and had zero shame in being THAT chihuahua lady. From vacations in San Diego to our days living in Santa Monica, to driving across the country in our last move back to NY, Roo was my ultimate adventure buddy. In the Bahamas, Roo discovered a passion for chasing lizards. Once, she caught a baby lizard, and I swear that time stopped as we locked eyes in that moment - I have no idea who was more shocked, me or her. I will never forget seeing her spit him back out and both of us watching him happily run away. When I adopted sweet Porter, Roo graciously welcomed her 80 lbs. pittie brother into her life, and they happily co-existed throughout his too-short time with us.

I don’t have the words to describe Roo. She was truly one of a kind, and as so many animal professionals told us during her life, an exceptionally sweet and chill chihuahua. She was a beauty, inside and out. She loved sun spots, hand-knit sweaters, and frozen blueberries. She loved belly rubs, head scratches, and giving and receiving nose kisses.

Roo was a fighter until the end, and made the most of her golden years, enjoying endless snuggles and the fact that her human was able to work from home. She made so many people smile, and I hope I will never stop hearing stories about how sweet and special she was. I am eternally grateful for her, and to everyone who showed her love throughout her time here with us.

I LOVE this sweater. Love love love. I used bigger needles than called for to get gauge using WOOL AND THE GANG]’s Feeling Good, which is suuuuper soft. Wearing this is sweater is like being wrapped in a comfy cloud. The only adjustment I made was reinforcing the collar to get a perfect fit. Now I just have to figure out how to keep this alpaca blend from shedding on EVERYTHING…any tips??

How CUTE is this hat by ?? The Coast to Coast Bulky Beanie is in testing, but you can get the worsted weight version right now! I love this pattern because you get that lovely stretchy fit with NO RIBBING. You can also do a provisional cast on so virtually no seaming as well. I will definitely be making this pattern again and again!

Yarn is WAK The Petite Wool from stash, cardigan is the by me, same yarn! Link in bio for pattern 🌲

What’s your favorite hat pattern??

Evergreen Shawl Cardigan Knit-A-Long!

I just cast-on an for myself and figured I would invite you all to do the same! My original sample was gifted to my mom and I’ve been wanting my own for almost a year now…

Simple guidelines:
-buy the pattern (if you already have it, that’s great too 💚)
-cast-on/make some progress before 12/31/22
-post pics on social media before that date
-create a project on Ravelry (only if you use it, no worries if not as I know it has accessibility issues)

If you do that, you’ll get a free pattern of mine of your choice! As always, I’m available for pattern support, and as I’m making it myself right now it’ll be fresh in my mind.

Let me know if you have any questions and if you plan to join me in the comments!

I am SO delighted with this bag I just made 💚

Even though I have garments I am excited to make, I was having a hard time feeling motivated to knit. Hailey () shared about making this bag and I’m so glad I hopped on board and followed suit. It was a perfect palate cleanser, so useful, and a great way to use any worsted or DK yarn you have around - I used recycled cotton worsted for this one.

Pattern is Pike Place Market Bag by , I know this will not be my last one!

Have you knit a bag before?

Sometimes we have to unravel and start again. It can be exhausting to feel like it’s 3 steps forward, 7 steps back.

If you feel scared and sad and any and all of the other feelings today, I hope you will allow yourself grace and space, and that you find comfort in your craft.

I created this account over a year ago partially to avoid the feels. I was one of those “keep politics out of knitting” people and of course quickly realized human rights aren’t politics, and the fiber arts ARE political. I treasure this community for so many things that goes beyond our shared love for our art.

The last thing I’ll say is that if you need to tune out, that’s ok too. Only you know what you need to fill your cup, and the world needs your cup filled.

Thank you for everything, sending you all so much love 💚

Last chance for SALE, and I also have a yarn question!

Today is the last day for 35% off all of my patterns! That means you can get all three for about $16 USD (if you’re so inclined) 🥰

Links in bio for Ravelry and my website - no code needed for Rav, and use code “SPRINGSALE” on my website.

I know it’s getting warmer but I’m still planning on making another Everbloom Cardigan, shown here, in cotton. I’m thinking Billow, but do you have any 100% cotton or plant-fiber bulky yarns you’d recommend?

My first SUMMER KNIT is complete! What should I make next…

I made this Strawberry Top with some cotton yarn from my stash, and I am so pleased to have actually joined and completed ’s knitalong (my very first ) 😎

What’s on your list to make this summer? I still have a lot of DK and worsted yarn in my stash that I would love to use to make some more lightweight tops like this, so any ideas would be much appreciated! 💚

The first and likely last time my belly button will make an appearance on this page…no shame at all, just not my usual look ☺️

So how cute is this Strawberry 🍓 Top from ? She’s hosting a knitalong through June 5, and there are prizes to be won! Still plenty of time to join and complete one of her adorable summer tops, which I highly recommend.

Have you finished any summery knit projects yet? And/or you also get your belly button pierced at 16 only to have the hole never fully close up? Inquiring minds want to know! 😂

Pants from as per usual!
