Before I get in too deep with looking back on what I did this year and what I want to do next year, I am realizing there are a few projects that were unintentionally overlooked. One of those is the Color Infusion Cowl. Project details & modifications The original Color Infusion Cowl by Meredith Shepherd… Continue reading Color Infusion Cowl

Happy Halloween!
We're ready for Halloween tonight! The weather is predicted to be on the chilly side, perfect for all the Elsa's out there, including my own. My daughter is still big into all things princess. Last year she was Wonder Woman (technically a princess!) and I thought maybe this year we could something different. Elsa, in… Continue reading Happy Halloween!
Shift Finished!
I am almost done with this year's crazy Rhinebeck Hat - I will probably post a photo on Friday. I can say that both are coming together nicely and this takes the cake for obnoxious, easy to spot, silly, & yet totally appropriate for attending a fiber festival. But this post is about a new… Continue reading Shift Finished!

I am so excited for the weekend - it time for NY Sheep & Wool a.k.a. Rhinebeck! I am going to be going with my favorite sister-in-law (how awesome is it that she is a knitter?! AND we discovered last year that we have similar shopping strategies!) - she and my brother live not too… Continue reading Representing at Rhinebeck
Socks! (it’s still summer right?)
Yay! I finished the "Go with the flow" socks 🙂 I used Reynolds Sea Wool yarn, 2 skeins, and really enjoyed this pattern. It was pretty easy to memorize / see as it happened (although if I knit it at night I tended to get sleepy while working on it), and overall fairly quick. They… Continue reading Socks!
