Truth. Goodness. Beauty. Yarn
Crocheters, I have a new pattern for you today! I’ve been teasing this design on Instagram over the last few weeks and I’m pretty stoked about releasing it. Please welcome Pyrifolia! Spring is usually a bit touch and go where I live—we’ll hit summer weather in February and then freeze hard in April. This year …
It’s time for the Mélodies KAL! Signups (and lovely yarn pictures!) are beginning to appear and I can’t wait to see what everyone makes. This is a super laid-back knitalong, so most of the housekeeping items below are to make the prize draws at the end easier—from the top: Any of the four patterns from …
Yes, my third blog post of this week cometh. I promise not to do this too often. But I have something so big to share right now that it just couldn’t wait—I’m honored and thrilled to announce that I’ve been chosen as a Designer in Residence at SweetGeorgia Yarns for the 2021-2022 season! SweetGeorgia is …
These last several months have been a whirlwind. Now that Mélodies is out, I’ve had a chance to take a breath, survey, and hopefully reset. I’m a nostalgic and introspective bird by nature; and the culmination of my first capsule collection, a longtime dream, has set me thinking about my knitting journey and my lace …
According to our friend the random number generator, the winner of the Á Chloris pattern giveaway is… Margaret! Congratulations, Margaret! I’ll be contacting you shortly to get you a free pdf copy of Á Chloris. Thank you so much to everyone who commented and shared their thoughts; your input is always valued. In other news, …
Is it really time to do this? I almost can’t believe it; but here we are. It’s time to release the last pattern from Mélodies: please welcome Á Chloris! Pattern and giveaway information are towards the bottom of the post, as are more details regarding the Mélodies KAL which starts in just a few weeks; …
It’s almost time! Á Chloris comes out next week, and since I can’t wait to show it to you, I have more pictures. My testers’ needles are blazing away and some of them are already done; their projects are stunning. They’ve done their shawls in a variety of weights and yarn amounts, so you can …
I’m ridiculously excited today, because yesterday SweetGeorgia Yarns announced their 2021 Spring Make-Along. It looks like it’s going to be a great event full of crafting, inspiration, chatter, and other fun; they also have a sale on lace yarns right now; but that is not something I need to be participating in… But I’m definitely …
Á Chloris, the final design in Mélodies comes out in three weeks! It’s hard to believe that Mélodies is almost complete—this collection has been in the works for over a year (and the first design, Le Soir, has been kicking around in my mind since summer of 2018). While I can’t show the whole thing …
The last couple of weeks have been an epic speed-knitting marathon for me, which should mean that I have lots to show today; problem is, I can’t actually show it to you yet. One of the wacky things about working in the knitting industry is that everything is done 9-12 months ahead of time, which …
