Great Towering Textiles

Actually brought work home to join the work from home brigade. Taking a few breaks, though.

New Year, meet old pre-occupations. Managed to resume some small but steady knitting progress this past year. Have made some slightl...

There is knitting. There are visits to friends. There are host gifts. Simple Yet Effective Cowl, in Socks That Rock, is done in les...

Too small.  Off to the frog pond. Sent from my iPhone

I lost another hat. If only I had a way to solve that.

This may never happen again. I have actually started in July and finished in August the first of a December gift list. I had made two of...

Seriously will get this second batch done.

Seriously, this yarn is going to be used up. I bought a bunch of this Patons for something like a dollar at a ridiculous close out - prob...

Also ready for mailing! I sent a batch of these to a friend and her family some years ago, and they tackled the fulling-to-size. I vis...

How about that! I finished a pair of gloves for myself before Autumn turned certainly and completely around the corner into Winter.
