Cruisin’ Roses
This past weekend I cast off another ‘I’d Rather Be Cruising’ shawl made in my ‘Rose’ ombré colour way. I love how the colour turned out! I had yarn left over – and one thing about ombré yarns is that you want to use up…
FO – Ocean Fortress Shawl
This past weekend, with barely 6 inches to spare, I bound off my Age of Brass and Steam kerchief (free on Ravelry, click here for pattern) using my Ocean Fortress Ombré yarn. To say I am delighted is an understatement. The pattern used up exactly…
Starry Night – December/January Club
Starry Night, colourway & pattern will be released to my Etsy store this Friday! The opportunity to purchase will last three days; until Sunday night, which should make for a nice, relaxed shopping experience :) Psst! There are still 2 days left to enter my…
Ancient WIPs
This yarn began its life as an Etsy OOAK called ‘Green Sea’ that I snagged from a Tanis Fiber Arts Etsy update. Not only was it a OOAK colour, but it was some kind of super special base with silk, and I think cashmere in…
I’d Rather Be Cruising!
Sometimes a pattern takes an unexpected turn on you. After ‘Sandy’, which was beautiful but complex, I really needed a turn-your-brain-off knit. I was also feeling super inspired by a skein of Cosmic Blue Label that Tanis had sent me for her colour shifting scarf.…

Lace Shawl Design
I’ve been working on a new design for a few weeks now, and I think I’ve finally nailed it. Designing is a long process, with countless test knits, chart updates, and fiber tests, but it’s also very gratifying when you finally get there. This is my…
WIP – the giant Haruni
I apologize for the dearth of posts lately, between poor Happy and my day job things have been hella busy. That doesn’t mean there is no great creative going on though :) In a few weeks I’m leaving on a cruise with Tito and my…
Where’s My Tardis?
Today I would like to provide the ultimate, irrefutable proof that I can bend time: In the middle of all this resin madness, I have an FO to share. I’m sure you’re all sick of hearing about resin ;) so here is my latest knitting…
