I’ll admit it- I LOVE tv. Before streaming services were the big thing, we did not add HBO or Showtime to our cable package because OMG so expensive! So we’d binge on shows like The Sopranos when we’d visit our parents for the weekend after everyone else had gone to bed, staying up till all hours fitting in as many…
Often times when I search Pinterest for knitting stuff, fun tattoos always seem to pop up. Some of them are so much more interesting than the rest – who wouldn’t love having a knitting No Face on their arm? Do you have any knitting tattoos? What do they look like?
When I was in middle school, my friends and I were obsessed with Twin Peaks. We’d get together to watch the show and make little cherry pies using those little sponge cake cups you find at the grocery store and pie filling (they weren’t very good), buy any merch that came out (the Cooper tapes, Laura Palmer’s diary), and I’m…
Ah September – the weather is getting cooler, the kids are back in school, and it is my favorite time of year to start cozy new knitting projects. And since I tend to have overly ambitious fall knitting goals (I want to make ALL THE THINGS IMMEDIATELY!), I think it’s best to make several quick pieces that focus on…
The other night I decided to knit up a quick, super bulky slouchy beanie because FALL IS COMING, people! The pattern called for size 13 dpns and circular needles, and yarn (obviously); I had the circular and the yarn on hand, but I couldn’t bring myself to wait the two whole days for the dpns to show up from Amazon…
Still plugging away at the 100 day project, though my progress has slowed way down because life needs me more right now. I started on February 1st, made it to day 20 on February 24, but didn’t make it to day 40 until May 3. But that’s ok. My goal is to spend 100 days working on this blog/ etsy…
Pastel knits are having a moment, and as someone who wears 95% black (and has for my entire life), I’m surprisingly excited for this one. Maybe it’s because after a year of staying inside it’s time we have something fun and festive and spring like. As shown here in my new favorite style newsletter, The Reflective, these colors work…
My favorite shows and movies in 2020 I’ll admit it – I watched a LOT of tv this year. Most of the time I’m just rewatching shows I’ve seen a million times, like Friends, because it’s just on in the background while I’m knitting or working on mugs. However, I did find a bunch of new shows (or at least…
How is your 100 Day Project going? After narrowing down my project idea to making whatever I can using my existing supplies, the first 10 days went pretty well after an initial hiccup. Day 1: I pulled an almost finished Valentine’s Day hat out of my knitting basket and finished it. I don’t love the hat (it’s a little big)…
