Last weekend we hit 2 years living in Portland (Portlandiversary, as Caitlin called it!) – and it’s been a fabulous 2 years! So I made a mix to celebrate! I hadn’t made an official mix, complete with title and artwork, since my moving to Portland mix, so I was excited to put some effort intoContinue reading “2 years in PDX, time to mix it up!”

This is a project I’ve been teaching at the Multnomah County Libraries all summer – my last class is coming up on Thursday and I think it’s about time I share it with the rest of you! It’s a simpleContinue reading “how-to: Recycled Sweater Wool Jewelry!”
first ever Quick Knits Club!
First, to kind of go along with the beginning of the club, I started a leethal ravelry group! It started out leethal quick knits specific, but then I decided to change it to a general leethal group, so that’s that! Most everyone who joined the first month of the leethal quick knits club should haveContinue reading “first ever Quick Knits Club!”
leethal “recipe” – Grilled Breakfast Quesadilla
I’ve become a little obsessed with this meal lately, working (and eating) at home every day – George Foreman grilled quesadillas are super easy, healthy(ish) depending on your filling choices, and so delicious! You need a GF grill big enough to fit your tortilla, or else you can fold one tortilla in half and makeContinue reading “leethal “recipe” – Grilled Breakfast Quesadilla”
Book Review: Crochet Adorned
I haven’t been much of a crocheter for the last few years, but I’ve felt pushes here and there lately to get back into it – and Linda Permann‘s new book is a huge push! Full of not-too-intimidating, smallish crochet projects, which then get combined with fabric or clothing to make bigger pieces, there areContinue reading “Book Review: Crochet Adorned”
Sock Summit Weekend!
Yeah it was a fun weekend! I didn’t take tons of photos, but those are a couple highlights… Walking around the luminary panel room before it started, I was stopped by the friends of that sock monkey and asked to pose for a picture for something ravelry-related. It just so happened that I had myContinue reading “Sock Summit Weekend!”
Book Review: Sock Innovation by Cookie A
I’m back from my first day checking out Sock Summit, and just a couple hours to get a few books signed and walk around the marketplace wiped me out! Overwhelming! But in a good way! One of the books I got signed was this one right here, and Cookie A was super nice and encouragedContinue reading “Book Review: Sock Innovation by Cookie A”
My first socks ever + Book Review: Sock Knitting Kit
When my buddy Star blogged yesterday that the mayor officially declared this to be Sock Knitting Week in Portland, my Sock Summit excitement reached a new level and I decided that I couldn’t be just a passive Portland knitter in all this sock madness – I need to be a participant! So I did it,Continue reading “My first socks ever + Book Review: Sock Knitting Kit”
Quick Knits Club sneaky preview!
Don’t forget, Wednesday is the last day you can sign up for my brand new leethal Quick Knits Club!! (Slight spoiler alert: if you’ve signed up and you really want it to be a total mystery, don’t scroll down!) Okay this is a one time thing, just for the first month, but since I don’tContinue reading “Quick Knits Club sneaky preview!”
My own personal Best of Portland!
10/22/2011: I’ve been living here in Portland for over twice as long now as when I wrote this post, so perhaps an update would be nice, eh? Most of the places I loved back then, I still love (or at least like) now, but I’ve made many new discoveries, and some things have changed… asContinue reading “My own personal Best of Portland!”
