Link to the podcast is not working? Looking forward to hearing it!

The next installment of the Sweater Quest podcast is now live. This time, there's an added bonus if you listen until the very end. Also, this time, there are no sounds of distant cats howling. Go here for Chapter 1.1. Coincidentally, this showed up in the mail at the start of the week: Its ori...
Love the baby toes!

I suppose that these days, I'm not doing as much knitting or sewing as I am working outside. When the weather starts to change, those of us who have four seasons really love to take advantage of our opportunity to garden and get the outdoors settled for our few months of nice weather. It's been...
I can do both (and sew and quilt and macrame), but I knit pretty much exclusively now because I love the finished product so much...the smoothness of stockinette stitch. The rhythm of knitting also makes me more relaxed than that of crocheting.
All I'm Saying.
Back when I was stitching all those balls, I gathered a hell of a lot of that Perle cotton, the number five type and when I saw this crocheted pin cushion I thought I needed to make one as soon as possible. I don't do much crochet or sewing myself, but why not? Which brings me to this: I have...
I confess I'm a chicken when it comes to buttonholes, although I have made them a few times. When faced with a project such as yours, I often take it to a professional seamstress (although you seem to qualify as one!) to have them done; someone with very good credentials (and lots of experience with buttonholes!). You amaze me with the speed you work at when it comes to sewing!

All week, I've been swatching for Tissue. I did NOT like the yarn doubled, although I did make guage that way. It was too heavy for my taste, especially for a sweater named Tissue. I imagined lightweight, drapey, soft and floaty as an actual tissue cardigan. SO I ended up using one strand of glo...
The top is gorgeous. Great style and choices of fabric. You look great!

Last night, I came home from choir practice and fell asleep on the sofa. For the whole night. Birdie came and woke me up at 5:00AM! Television on, all the house lights on. I must have really been out of it. Here's what was so cool waking up at that hour, in an unexpected place. When I woke up,...
Gorgeous socks. Of course it's twenty-ten. Imagine if we had spent the last century saying, "Nineteen hundred fifty-seven."
Twenty Ten*
Happy 2010! I am so excited for this year right now for no good reason than I just feel good about the number 2010. It sounds so wholesome and peaceful and exciting. It's even and round and has a Ten and if you haven't noticed, I like tens. So much is going to happen this year - I can feel i...
Suggest Cetaphil to your son. They have a special face wash that really clears things up.
Bad Yogis/Bad Knitters
I just came from lunch with a friend. Before we met she was at the drug store and called me on the phone and asked me what I'd suggest she have her pre-pubescent son use on his face (he's beginning to break out). I said some sort of mild wash, blah blah blah, and when we met up, she pulled a p...
