A little bit of progress on a handful of things this week: I started the cabled collar on the Dyad sample. It’s a fold over collar with cables on both sides so I’ve gotten to the halfway point and have worked the turning row, ready to work the second half. I also put some time

Has it only been a week? It feels like 10 years have passed. If you read my life update section from last time, you’ll know we were planning to put our house on the market. We live in a fairly remote area with limited housing options and we had signed all the paperwork to list

“They say that when I was born, all the wild geese flew down from the sky, and the fish sank beneath the waves, having forgotten how to swim. Even the lotus flowers in out gardens quivered and turned their heads away, so ashamed they were of their own diminished allure in my presence.” I thoroughly

It’s been another super busy week, so not a ton of progress on anything. If you’d like the life update, you can read that after the project info! I did manage to finish the body of Asterie and I’m excited to have this to wear (hopefully!) for the fall. Sleeves are left, but this week

This week was…a challenge. Lots going on In Real Life so I was a little surprised at what I got done. Those little moments definitely add up! I finished up the final braid of handspun for the Tour de Fleece with a light-DK 2-ply of blue-faced Leicester hand dyed by Funky Carolina. I’m going to

A couple of finished things for this week and a handful of other in-progress items: I finished my Sailing School Socks, design by Helen Stewart/Curious Handmade. I used Less Traveled Yarn’s 757 Sock in the Prickly Pear colorway. The design isn’t particularly hard – some 1/1 cables and a fake eyelet cable done without a

From the founding director of the Gettysburg Seminary Ridge Museum comes an unforgettable narrative of medicine, courage, and innovation that speaks to both history enthusiasts and medical professionals. This definitive account shows how the medical crisis at Gettysburg continues to influence how we treat mass casualties and train combat medics today. This book, which focuses

This week was really busy at work. We are a small team of 3 full and 1 part-time person, and one of those full-timers is out on leave enjoying time with her new little one – so that leaves a lot of extra to go around. However, I did get a chance to work on
