Forest Weave Side 1 Done!
On to side 2!
Back to the Forest
I’m taking a short break from my shawl design to work on my Forest Weave. It is coming along pretty nicely! For some reason I had a real burst of speed this evening and got through about 10 rows, which is unheard of progress for me for a work night. Just 7 more rows to… Continue reading Back to the Forest
Beaded Crescent Done!
Sorry for the radio silence for the last couple of days – we got a burst of energy to get house stuff done and had to go with it 🙂 We got a lot done, and consequently the house is looking much more organized – much happier with it. And I did get some knitting… Continue reading Beaded Crescent Done!
Tea For Two: June = Green Tea

I did sneak my shawl along to work and hid for 15 minutes at lunch so I could get a row… Continue reading So Many Chores!

There’s a bit… Continue reading Very Yarny Weekend
Weekend!
Work has been pretty crazy for the last several weeks, and sadly is going to stay crazy for a few weeks more. Evenings have been sort of hectic too, so I haven’t gotten as much crafting time in lately as I would have liked. I’ve been grateful for the relaxing time I have had, but… Continue reading Weekend!
An Updated Guide to AK Yarn Shops for Visitors
A couple of years ago, I wrote a post listing all the yarn shops I knew of in Alaska. We get a lot of visitors, many of whom may be crafters who would like to know where to pick up some yarn while in Alaska. In the time since I wrote that original post, a… Continue reading An Updated Guide to AK Yarn Shops for Visitors
