The last clue was delivered early Friday morning as I peacefully slept.  I was so excited to get the pattern update downloaded and check out Stephen’s latest videos showing me what I would be knitting next.  The last clue gave the needed information to decide if you were going to make the large version of […]

Can I just say? I LOVE sock knitting! It’s my go to travel knitting, in between project knitting, and all around potato chip project. I have knit with many different sock yarn brands, but one I have tried recently is the Blue Ridge Yarns Footprints. I love how this yarn comes with complimentary colors for the […]

American Made Yarn: For an amazing yarn made in America, look no further than Elemental Affects Civility Sport High Twist. This delicious blend of Merino Wool and Mulberry Silk is homegrown, hand-dyed and spun right here in the USA. This yarn is strong and durable due to its high twist, yet soft and squishy thanks […]

Sometimes when you are stuck on an obstacle with knitting or crocheting, it can be difficult to know where to find your solutions. If you don’t have a good friend to bribe with treats to help you out, or a helpful yarn store in town, sometimes you don’t know where to turn or who to trust with your […]

One more clue to go! Did you see what happened with clue 2?  It was a blast to knit!  After work last Friday, I got right on knitting the first part of the third clue.  This part is a super fun boomerang shape wedge that is knit off of the mesh section that started the […]

I was gifted the Paradise Fibers Glitzy Wool Roving in Amber not too long ago. And although the color is the most gorgeous, natural amber color, I could not figure out what I wanted to make with it.

Last Friday’s clue for the Marled Magic MKAL I am working on did not disappoint! I was so excited to see that one of my favorite stitches of all time was added to the shawl, the brioche stitch.  If you have never tried the brioche stitch this project is a great one to start with. […]

If you are anything like me, you have a TON of scrap yarn left overs from projects. I love sock knitting and have tiny little feet so I always have yarn left over from my sock projects. I also started spinning mostly fingering weight in small amounts and can’t figure out what to do with […]

I think it is safe to say that every fiber enthusiast has their go-to brand to work with and I am no different.  Knitting Fever Inc. is such an amazing and versatile distributor of some of my favorite brands of yarn. The reason is simple.  They make high-quality yarns and have something for everyone.  Let […]

My anticipation had been building for nearly two weeks.  Click here to read where my MKAL journey began. I woke up last Friday morning and could not wait to see if clue number one to my first every MKAL was available and IT WAS!  I don’t really know why I needed to have it available […]

The line of Brown Sheep yarns is simply amazing!  There is something in it for everyone.  Their Cotton Fleece DK and Cotton Fine fingering yarns are a unique blend of soft Pima Cotton and Merino Wool.  I love that there is just enough merino wool to make an otherwise heavy fiber like cotton feel much lighter.  The […]

How many of you can remember your favorite blanket from when you were a child?  I would venture that most kids have that go to snuggly blanket that their parents have to pry out of their hands just to wash it.  As a knitter or crocheter, I am sure you would agree that creating for babies […]
