I've been dying to get my hands (or more accurately, my needles) on Berroco Kodiak, so I was thrilled that Aude was chosen as the project for our Holiday Gift Knit-Along! Now I get to play with Kodiak and I don't have to feel bad about buying more yarn, because I'm making it as a… Continue reading Ashley’s Adventures in Knitting: Holiday Gift KAL

Knitter’s Spotlight: A La Mode by Lori Versaci
With the name a la mode, it’s no surprise that Lori Versaci’s handknit sweater was actually inspired by a look on the runway at New York Fashion Week. It was few years back that she saw a metallic pullover sweater paired with a stiff, straight skirt. It looked like a kind of fashionable armor. Soon, Lori… Continue reading Knitter’s Spotlight: A La Mode by Lori Versaci

Knitter’s Spotlight: Karma Kables by Linda Benne

I pretty much knew I wanted to knit Caley from the moment I saw it on our model last spring.

I cast… Continue reading Ashley’s Adventures in Knitting: Caley

Emily Explains: Creative Embroidery
Fall is creeping on in, which means it's time for me to start pulling out my beloved woolens.

I adore these vintage bathing caps from the… Continue reading Emily Explains: Creative Embroidery
Knitter’s Spotlight: Coffee & Yarn Hat by Kathy Ticho

Barrison’s Travels: SoCal Summer Vacation
After a busy summer, and before an even busier fall, Barrison joined me for a long weekend in Southern California. The weather was perfect and Barrison was beach ready!
