Let's face facts: My stash is certainly healthy and likely SABLE-status (that stands for Stash Acquired Beyond Life Expectancy. It will take years to knit or crochet it all.) My Ravelry queue is 54 pages long. That's over 1600 projects I have noticed and thought "Yeah, I'd like to make that." Yarn and crafts are part of… Continue reading 2018MakeNine

Nutmegknitter Recap | Vogue Knitting Live NYC
I love going to New York City! Each time really feels like an adventure - I take the train in to Grand Central Terminal, and when you walk through the terminal and then out on to 42nd street it feels like you've landed on a completely different planet. This was my first time to attend… Continue reading Nutmegknitter Recap | Vogue Knitting Live NYC

We should have taken orders because not only were we frequently stopped for photos but people wanted to if we bought our… Continue reading Rhinebeck Recovery

Both happened at the end of last week, and here we are - summer has finally arrived after a very long winter and a very delayed spring. We're once again adjusting to new… Continue reading Let the Wild Rumpus Start
Pining for Rhinebeck

I went with a list and pretty much found what I was looking for: yarn from Green Mountain Spinnery to do a JETS hat… Continue reading Pining for Rhinebeck
