Knit kits! And other stuff! Yeah!

Kits! I now have kits! Just barely in time for last-minute holiday gifting, they are mostly small quick knits… All kits are with recycled yarn, some of it hand-dyed, and everything else you need except the needles. There are five different kit types. First, light-switch plate cover (pattern info): I just knit up a new oneContinue reading “Knit kits! And other stuff! Yeah!”

leethal patterns printed on things!

Edited 12/7 to remove Thanksgiving weekend sale stuff.  Society6 and Redbubble continue to have holiday season sales, which are shown along the tops of the webpages. Brand new leethal thing!  You can now get some of the stitch patterns I’ve designed printed onto stuff!  So far there are 6 patterns that I’ve converted into seamlessContinue reading “leethal patterns printed on things!”

Interviews, studio photos, and nerding out with sales analysis…

Want to see me being awkward on camera?  Well, now you can!  I was video-interviewed for Kimberly Golynskiy’s (aka 80 Skeins‘) travel-knitting blog, Around the World in 80 Skeins. She visited me at my home here in Portland, and then I took her out on the town to a food cart dinner and my neighborhood knitContinue reading “Interviews, studio photos, and nerding out with sales analysis…”

Quick project tutorial: Record yarn bowls!

If you follow me on instagram, you may remember my excitement when I hit upon this idea many months ago: (caption: Made a broken record into a yarn bowl! It’s not perfect, but I think this concept could be awesome with some practice!) A photo posted by Lee Meredith (@leethalknits) on Apr 4, 2014 atContinue reading “Quick project tutorial: Record yarn bowls!”

leethal 2014 photo calendar!

I’ve been pretty into Instagram since I got my iPhone early this year, and I’ve been wanting to figure out ways to display my favorite shots.  The other day I thought, how about a calendar?  So I made one! I love how it turned out: simple, functional, a lovely display of some of my favoriteContinue reading “leethal 2014 photo calendar!”

Pom-Poms! book and pom-pom wreath project!

I made a thing! A little while ago, the publisher sent me a review copy of this book, Pom-Poms! 25 Awesomely Fluffy Projects by Sarah Goldschadt and Lexi Walters Wright.  The holiday season inspired me to make the pom-pom wreath!  Fun! I got out the book, my Clover pom-pom makers, a fork to try outContinue reading “Pom-Poms! book and pom-pom wreath project!”

Pendleton scrap blanket (and matching pillow)!

Awhile back, Susan blogged about a blanket she made with scraps from the Pendleton Woolen Mill Store, I thought it was fabulous, and Pete completely fell in love with it.  He’s been a bit Pendleton obsessed since he started getting really into men’s fashion a couple years ago… So we started taking trips over toContinue reading “Pendleton scrap blanket (and matching pillow)!”

Happy 2012! Here’s what’s up in leethal land…

How’s your 2012 going so far?  Mine is off to a slooooow start, but I feel like it’s just about to start taking off!  I wanted to jump in here after my long delay with kind of a catch-up post, with some stuff I’ve been up to so far this year, and random bits andContinue reading “Happy 2012!
