The end of October this year was just too busy to think about adding another task. But here it is, the Ides of November, and I have a free morning to type to you. So here’s what I’ve been up to. Weather October was the month for watching the land transform from tundra to snowcover. … More Month-and-a-Half Roundup – October and November 2024
The last big finish I’d like to share with you this week is another souvenir of my summer. But it starts earlier, with a book I received for Christmas: Knit, Fold, Pleat, Repeat by Norah Gaughan. Norah is a master of knitted fabric, and she really went to town in this book using unusual directions … More Finishing Party: Afloat
In this series of posts, I’m sharing about some big FOs that came off the needles in the last couple of months. Today, I’m going to share about a project that followed me all along our summer of travel: The Goff Place Mystery KAL that was part of the KDD “Summer of Mystery” club. Step … More Finishing Party: Goff Mystery
Hey everyone! I’m here on the blog again, with some very belated posts about some big finishes I’ve had over the last couple of months. I’ve shared about some of these finishes on The Wool Circle, but I still find value in collecting my pictures and thoughts and celebrating these big projects with a post … More Finishing Party: Port Charlotte
I went to bed last night and realized, I meant to do a round-up blog! I gotta admit, having multiple avenues to express oneself is awesome, but I’m still learning the rhythm of it. Not all of y’all have subscribed to the Wool Circle, and even though it’s easier and faster in some ways to … More September 2024 Round-up: Oh yeah
I thought I brought an absurd amount of knitting to do during our summer travels. But it turns out that over the course of several months, I do an absurd amount of knitting! I finished knitting I planned for: the Wervel Sweater, and 3/4 clues of the Goff Mystery Knit-Along (spoiler below); that’s about what … More Socks and Other Summer Knits
Today’s sweater starts with a curiousity about the world of neon. Super-bright colours have been a trend for a while now, and last year my curiousity about these colours reached a high point. During the summer of 2023, when visiting Magpie Yarns with my mom, I treated myself to a copy of Aimee Gilee’s book, … More Wervel
It’s done, it’s done, and it’s time to talk about it! I finished this capstone pullover back in March, actually. I had so much fun knitting it that it was finished in just a couple weeks. But now, I’m about to talk about it on the next episode of the Wool Circle, so I wanted … More Capstone Sweater: Finished
It’s a hazard of blogging that when the time comes to write about something, you might be in a mood that does not at all reflect what you have the task of writing about. For example, right now Casa de Osborn is kind of depressed because Jared is out of town and someone has been … More Puffin
You know, one day, I will finish something and post it on here, and it won’t have a super-long back story. Today is not that day. When I started spinning again, in January of 2017, I got sucked deep into the world of Instagram. Instagram is a world of marketing, and I was particularly sucked … More Solaris Vest
