Okay I’m going to jump around a bit since I’ve been gone for awhile (from here, busy times) – first, I’m extending the raffle for the Remixed knit-a-long by a few days. I’ll be picking winners on Monday night or Tuesday morning, so you have till then to get any Remixed projects you’ve made upContinue reading “Pop cobbler and lots of other stuff and news and things”

Remixed: the music part
During this Remixed waiting period, while all 8 patterns are out but the rest of the ebook is still in the works, I thought it would be fun to talk about the music part of the project! As you’ve seen, I’ve made album cover artwork pieces for each pattern, of the album for which theContinue reading “Remixed: the music part”
Twitter Mystery Knit-a-long!
It’s a bit of an experiment, and you know how I love experimentation, so I am super duper excited to let you know that this Friday begins my twitter mystery knit-a-long! 1 line of the pattern tweeted each day, from @leethalMKAL, April 20th – June 26th (at 11am west coast time each day). It’s aContinue reading “Twitter Mystery Knit-a-long!”
Remixed pattern #5: Slanted & Enchanted
First things first… As of last week, all Remixed patterns are now for sale individually, so if you’re not into the whole collection or making recycled yarn you can now grab just what you want! Of course, $20 for all 8 patterns is still the best deal ($2.50 per pattern) but now you have theContinue reading “Remixed pattern #5: Slanted & Enchanted”
My first skirt of the season!
Well the weather is still pretty wintery here in Portland, but I’m excited about the bits of sunshine that happen occasionally in the spring, and I’ve recently been feeling the urge to sew up some new warm weather clothes! Most years I tend to have big plans to make lots of new skirts and dresses, which don’tContinue reading “My first skirt of the season!”
Remixed pattern #8: Either/Or
(edited to remove pricing information that’s no longer true)… Either/Or! This final pattern is either fingerless mitts or full mittens, all constructed from the thumbs out. Knit modularly – no seaming or sewing at all, also no short rows, and an extra bonus is very little casting-on and no bind-off at all. This design isContinue reading “Remixed pattern #8: Either/Or”
February photos a day!
I did this photo a day project thing for fun in February, over on my Tumblr, so I’ve gathered my favorite shots from the month together in one place over here. A bit belated, but you know, time flies and whatnot… Here are Banzo’s paws held up by Pete’s hand, just how she likes itContinue reading “February photos a day!”
Pacific Northwest travels and other stuff and things
It’s been a crazy couple of weeks! I’ve taken several overnight trips for various purposes, to places as exciting as Seattle and as boring as Salem. I went up north to Washington with my buddies Star, Vivian, and Marcia, for the purpose of going to Madrona fiber arts retreat in Tacoma, but I think hangingContinue reading “Pacific Northwest travels and other stuff and things”

Remixed pattern #6: Freak Out!
It’s here! A custom fit, any-gauge, basic balaclava… …which can fold up into a warm ribbed hat: And you may be able to fold it up different ways for different styles of hats: The other sample I made, my first prototype for figuring out the design specifics, had no negative ease, and I learned thatContinue reading “Remixed pattern #6: Freak Out!”
