Karen at nothingbutknit came up with this great Q&A – check out her blog! What one thing has kept you from losing it entirely the last couple of months? It can be crafting but feel free to step outside that box. What meal is your absolute favorite? Be as vague or specific as you wish.… Continue reading Happy Thoughts Q&A
Temple of Flora is moving right along! I’m about 12 rows away from done with the right “wing”, then onto the left. Then it gets a sort of collar, some edging treatment, and done!

It took an hour or… Continue reading Organizing with “Helpers”
My Temple of Flora shawl has finally gotten to where it is divided out for the fronts! From here, I knit the front wings, which stay straight down the middle but continue to expand to the sides. Then when those pieces are finished, it gets a collar that has some nifty short row shaping. And… Continue reading Temple of Flora
