FREE PATTERN: Woodland Shawl

If you’re a chart person, you should totally use this fabulous chart!
Errata: If you printed this out the first day it was up (8/23/07) , there was an typo in line 14 of the lace pattern (it said P2 instead of P1), with the same error in the setup row (fixed 9/18). The setup row […]

FREE CHART: RAWK!

Wednesday, August 22nd, 2007

I’m catching up on my posting. Here’s a chart I put on flickr but forgot to put here.

Twinkle, Twinkle!

Thursday, August 2nd, 2007

I really love that Potter Craft put out my book, because they publish some of the rockinest knit books. I’m constantly feeling like an inadequate middle child when I see their new release lists.

FO Gnome Sweet Gnome

Wednesday, August 1st, 2007

Another variation for my Hat Menagerie class (Chicago–I’ll be teaching it at the KC & Minneapolis expos, too).
