Playing Catch-Up With Spring
Spring is later than usual in the PNW this year. I guess that’s what we get for enjoying all that extra snow! So the usual early spring flowers have been playing catch-up over the last week, the trees are adding … Continue reading
Minarets and Lace
About a month ago I teased you with photos of a lovely lace shawl on the needles, but never showed you the finished shawl. Well, wait no longer. This is the Minarets and Lace shawl by Mary-Anne Mace. I knit … Continue reading

No End In Sight
Once the latest cardigan project was off the needles, I picked up a little shawl project I had set aside prior to the end-of-year holidays. I have also departed from my normal working style and am forcing myself to be … Continue reading
Snow Moon Shawl
Following closely on the heels of the release of the Northern Lights shawl pattern, the designer started a test knit for another pattern that I couldn’t resist. Really, she just keeps cranking them out (it’s rather astonishing how prolific she … Continue reading
