Too cool and more than a little creepy.
Dawn of the Dead Knitted Dolls

I’m discovering that felted bowls are great for using up novelty yarn that you bought because you loved it, but never found a practical use for. This one is one strand of Knitpicks Sierra in Wild Rose, knit together in two places with two strands of a fuzzy boucle JoAnn Sensations yarn that I think […]

I’m working on a pattern for a felted bowl, which I plan to post here when it’s done.
I’m using Noro Kureyon color #74, just a single strand, on #13 needles (I tend to knit tightly). I started off with 75 stitches and will start decreasing after about another inch of stockinette.

Although I’m sure this confirms that I have lost my mind since giving birth, I’ve decided to knit the Nicky Epstein bear rug for Lawrence for Christmas.
I showed George the picture of the rug in KnitSimple magazine, where it was shown in your choice of pale blue or pink (I’m probably going to do […]

So I decide today to finally sit down and sew together the poncho for my niece Kye, which I finished knitting sometime in August. I lay out the pieces, which are supposed to be two rectangles of identical length:

Huh. How did that happen? I know I measured them as I went along.
Oh. I may have […]

Right now my two main projects are for myself. I’m trying to have at least two more sweaters for rainy season.
I’m making the Hip Hop coat by Ann Budd from the Interweave Knits Winter 2005 issue, using Joann’s Sensations Thick ‘N Think yarn in pink/lemon:

and Rebecca Rosen’s Fur Trimmed Hoodie from Knit.1 magazine, using Lion […]

You can’t do it. That’s what I’ve decided. I started knitting a cardigan for Lawrence a few months ago in denim yarn. He’s almost 4, but he’s tall, so I aimed for size 6-8. I finished the back and started one side and realized it’s going to be too short before I even finish it. […]

I am actually still knitting, although it doesn’t look like it, does it? I knit the Simply Marilyn sweater by Debbie Bliss from Interweave Knits this past spring. I knit it in KnitPicks Sierra yarn in Natural. I liked the yarn while I was knitting, but then it started pilling. And then I remembered how […]

I knitted these trays out of Noro Kureyon using a pattern from the book Felted Knits as presents. For the smaller one, I just cut the number of stitches in half (30 as opposed to 60, I believe). I used color #115 on the bigger one and #148 on the smaller one. The colors are […]

I made this version of the Irish Hiking Scarf for a friend’s mother. I used Baby Alpaca Grande, which I love, in #567 using #11 needles since it’s bulky weight. I made only two cables instead of three, otherwise it would have been a shawl instead of a scarf! This color, by the way, is […]
