    Twenty Ten

    Bymichelle May 6, 2015August 4, 2022

    Twenty Ten kind of slipped under the blogging radar.  You may remember I began it on the way to Madtosh Fort Worth to see Veera Välimäki and Joji Locatelli.  That…

    Wilco is 20, We’re 21

    Bymichelle May 5, 2015August 4, 2022

    Our marriage is 21, that is.  We celebrated it quietly by almost forgetting and remodeling our tiny kitchen.  It will now be a nicer looking, tiny kitchen.   But a…

    New Girl

    Bymichelle May 1, 2015August 4, 2022

    I finished New Girl by Allyson Dykhuizen and I love it.   Sadly, it’s too warm here for a wool skirt, but I am seriously considering knitting another in a…

    Color Change

    Bymichelle April 15, 2015August 4, 2022

    Don’t you love that point when a color changes?  It could be from winter brown to spring green, from green to blooming, or from the stem to the end of…

    Knitting a Skirt

    Bymichelle April 10, 2015August 4, 2022

    This is a knitting first for me.  I’ve never knitted a skirt before, though I’ve wanted to make this since it first came out in the HK Fall/ Winter collection….

    The Rory Needs a Break Scarf

    Bymichelle April 7, 2015August 4, 2022

    This modified Unicorn Stripes (by Antonia Shankland) scarf was a form of therapy.  Who cares that it’s super long and repetitive?  It uses lots of stash yarns, some of which…

    Bymichelle March 31, 2015August 4, 2022

    Bymichelle March 28, 2015August 4, 2022

    I told you I wasn’t finished with purple.  These are Cedar Glen Mitts, by Katie Canavan.  They are so lovely and spring-like that I thought I’d do some planting in…

    Laylow! Emily and Richard are on the Warpath

    Bymichelle March 26, 2015August 4, 2022

    Do you know how long I have waited to make Shannon Cook‘s Laylow shawl?  I think I ordered yarn for it before my pattern booklet came in.  Then I just took…
