Feeding the stash
I was out of my usual territory today and to my delight, found a new little yarn store! Located in a small shop area, it fits right in and I hope they do well. I had to show my support, … Continue reading
Hat trick
One, two, three hats done! I know I said I was going to start on another Antler hat, but I changed my mind. Instead, I decided to cast on a dinosaur hat. 🙂

Yakity yak
I finished that grey cowl, and I also finished a project from the hibernating WIP box – so I felt justified in casting on a new project last night. This is a Pretty Thing cowl, which I am knitting in … Continue reading
Insomnia knits
A thick, cozy cowl nearly done during a few episodes of The 100. KnitPicks “Biggo” yarn, in a lovely silver grey. Nice simple pattern; soft yarn. I think I’ll make more of these!
