Fluffy, Take 2
My second try at making a sweater from this yarn is going much better. (I guess it would be more accurate to say my second pattern, since I had multiple tries with the first pattern.) This one is going much … Continue reading
Fail.
Someone on Ravelry was asking about a pattern for a v-neck sweater in dark gray mohair-looking yarn, knit loosely in Brioche stitch. Looking for something like that, I came across this recent DROPS pattern. Not quite what she was looking … Continue reading

Today’s post brought to you by the color pink
I have inched forward on Relax, (AKA the giant pink tent), but it’s definitely something that will be long in the making. I guess it’s only fitting that it looks rather like a snail at the moment. I have about … Continue reading
