I flew down to California to visit my family four weeks ago, and flew back to Portland a few days later with a completely different life! I already knew I’d be heading down with no tattoos and coming back with one; I didn’t know I’d be heading down with a job and coming back withoutContinue reading “My most eventful quick trip to California”

My 2023 wrap up… making & doing
I’ve thought of 2023 as Senior Year of the pandemic. Not because there’s any graduation or ending in sight, just because it was the fourth year, and I feel like we’ve all grown and changed so much since 2020, or Freshman Year. 2023 was a bit rough—it’s the year I finally got covid—and it’s alsoContinue reading “My 2023 wrap up… making & doing”
Blogs are back, right?
I have no idea, but I miss mine, so I’m bringing it back. New name (sort of) & domain for the new decade, but the old posts are all still in the archive and searchable, all the way back to 2007. When I started the blog back then, it was meant to accompany my printedContinue reading “Blogs are back, right?”

Ch ch ch ch changes…
Ohmygosh hi! I’m thinking about blogging again! My life has changed so much over the last few years, and at this point there are basically two paths this old blog could go down… it could just stop, and be nothing but an archive of past posts, or I could try to revive it as somethingContinue reading “Ch ch ch ch changes…”
What’s new this spring
Hi readers! I am excited to tell you that I have a new page on my website: print patterns! An assortment of my most popular patterns (kind of a random selection actually, based on things like formatting, not just on popularity) are now available in high-quality printed format; you can see them all on thatContinue reading “What’s new this spring”
Glad it’s April 1st, no foolin’
Happy April! I have a few things to blog about to start off the month… firstly real quick, I just want to let EU knitters know that you can now, once again, purchase my patterns through ravelry (or my website), including collections/ebooks, yay! Next, I made a word list for a photo-a-day challenge for this month!Continue reading “Glad it’s April 1st, no foolin’”
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…”
