Truth. Goodness. Beauty. Yarn
Goodness, that’s an absurdly long post title; but I have lots of exciting things to share with you today. First of all, please welcome the Helenental Cowl! I’ll be totally honest; this release is a bit last minute. I don’t even have progress photos to show you because I was too busy knitting maniacally to …
Six weeks just shot by like a bullet train—it’s time to release Clair de Lune! We’re following the usual drill today—pattern & ebook info and giveaway instructions are down at the bottom, so if you want to skip the customary ramble, do so with my blessing. (Though rambles are known for their lovely scenery…) The …
It seems I’m guilty of neglecting my crochet followers a bit. Since releasing my last crochet design in January of this year, I’ve released 6 knit patterns over 10 months. But I’m making amends now with three patterns in one—meet the Crossings set! This design has been bubbling away in the crochet lab for a …
Okay, okay. I know I said to expect a yarn review this week, and it hasn’t happened; and here I am talking about a new pattern. I’m sorry; but this is just too exciting. This is Fox Grapes, published by Quince & Co. as part of their new 5-pattern colorwork collection, Waterline. It’s a squishy …
I know favoritism is a bad thing; but I have to say that this might be my favorite design for this year. Okay, okay. I have quite a few favorite designs this year—some already published, some close to publication, and some that are scheduled far into the mysterious mists of 2021. But this just might …
As you can tell from the title of this post, Nuit d’etoiles is here! It almost didn’t arrive on time, however; if you want the peaceful country ramble, read on. Pattern and giveaway info are a bit further down, so trot along and follow the subheads if you’d rather not wander around among the dandelions …
And about time, too! This project, Mélodies, has been in my daydreams since December of last year, though Le Soir has been a picture in my mind since September of 2018. It’s finally here! This is going to be a longish ride; so if you’d like to cut to the chase and get to the …
Muntins is here!!! (Pardon me—I’m not actually a screamer in person…) As I mentioned last week, this scarf is part of Knotions September 2020, which is portal-themed; when I saw the issue theme in the submission call, my geeky knuckles began cracking on reflex. I’ve loved windows as long as I can remember; originally I …
Anyone who thinks that birds in their little nests agree has never had chickens. How bad could these little featherballs be? Pretty bad, if last week was any indication. Nothing lasts forever, and inevitably comes the day when the flock has been thinned out by predators, illness, and old age; and it’s time for the …
More Facets Joy is here! Many more vibrant Facets Cowl adventures have been added to Ravelry since Part 1; and with the world in need of a bit of cheer and color right now, this seemed like a good time for another installment! Susan’s Facets Cowl uses Knit Picks Chroma in Shortcake—a lovely creamy, peachy …
