To Boldly Go – Star Trek baby blanket

It has been far too long since I last updated here (I’m kinda putting off checking just how long), so it’s high time I updated. The anemia/depression/arthritis mix has really knocked me around, but I’m finally getting better. So I bring to you an update – a new pattern! This baby blanket was a custom […]

Branching Out

I have been negligent of my blog over the last few months, due mostly to these fibroids I discovered I have in June. I’m battling some severe anemia from it, which brings a whole host of issues with pain, energy, attention, and insomnia. I have quite a few posts I’ve been meaning to make, but […]

Adventures in spinning

I have been more than a little neglectful of my blog, mostly due to a big upswing in stress, pain, and insomnia, which always pushes my depression around. It’s possibly the only time my depression does anything quickly! I’m getting a handle on it again, which is helped by managing my pain levels better. I […]

Another Instagram Giveaway!

To say thanks for getting to 900 followers on Instagram, I’m running a giveaway over there, as well as offering 15% off all purchases at my Etsy store until April 15th.  

The Golden Collection – Rose

I finally finished the pattern for the first in my new collection of winter accessories. These pieces are all inspired by the characters from The Golden Girls, and this set is inspired by Rose. Coming soon will be the sets for Blanche, Dorothy, and Sophia. I’m so excited about this! I know it’s not obviously […]

Charmed Gauntlets giveaway on Instagram

This week I made myself a pair of my Charmed Gauntlets – fingerless gloves with pockets – to go with the beanie and scarf I made last year. They’re all made from Lion Brand’s Heartland yarn in Yellowstone. I had enough left to make more, so I did! I also got to use my gorgeous […]

Flash the Stash

If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen some photos I posted after I reorganised my yarn stash. I did this a few weeks ago now, fully intending on making a blog post soon after. But with how stress and parenting and life just gets in the way…I didn’t. I’m trying to get […]

Adventures in dyeing

I’ve finally been able to get back onto my computer – my daughter’s computer has been playing up, so I’ve let her use mine for her games and schoolwork. As I was doing most of my internetting on my phone, and sitting for long periods at the computer hurts, I didn’t mind. But I find […]

Yarn giveaway on Instagram

I’ve now passed the 300 follower mark on Instagram and wanted to say thank you, so I’m having a little giveaway over there. This is a gorgeous skein of Ella Rae chunky lace merino yarn. It’s 100g, 110m, and utterly divine. Please check out this post for the rules. • Comment on this post about the […]

Star Trek CAL – FINISHED!

Yes, at long last, I’ve finished it. I started making it in June last year, but I actually created it before I made my Outlander blanket, so this has been a long time in coming. Last year was extremely rough for me, so finishing this blanket feels like a great way to start the new […]
