Have you seen this? Pure genius! I bought this at Rhinebeck because I loved the colors and thought that the intarsia strip that is designed to run down the center of the sock was interesting. Little did I know I had so much more to be excited about. The kit, designed by the Tsarina of [...]

Have I shown you this yet?       The wall that TG built is finally done! This wall has been under construction for at least a year and a half and I am so very proud to say it is finished. Well done, husband. Well done.   Oh, and the sweater that I put [...]

Ok, so life has been a little unkind lately. Not so much in a full on kick you in the teeth sort of way, but more so in a hey, check out what’s important to you and make sure you make time for it sort of way. Again, with the cryptic, I know. More details? [...]
