    Here it is: Aidez by Cirilia Rose.  This is a really big moment in my knitting this year.  I’ve done complicated cables before, but never this complicated while so much…

    Bymichelle December 27, 2014August 3, 2022

    Oops.  I hope you all had a great Christmas.  I’m going to get right to the point: I have conflicted feelings about Christmas.  As far as celebrating Christ’s birth, I…

    Gift Knitting is Finished

    Bymichelle December 23, 2014August 3, 2022

    This time it was different.  I didn’t have to knit these gifts, they were just little extras that I could do while watching movies with my family.  I didn’t wait…

    Bymichelle December 15, 2014August 3, 2022

    Kingsley, by Andrea Mowry, was a welcomed break from cabling.  I keep saying that, don’t I?  I’ve interrupted Aidez a million times with my incessant string of hats.  I guess…
