The Boxy Version
Hello dear readers! It is with excitement bordering on utter and complete terror that I am here to announce testing is open for my new design, the Boxy Superlite Top! The Handmade MAL featuring its predecessor, the Superlite Top, is still going strong, but it's already time to iron out the wrinkles and get this … Continue reading The Boxy Version
All the Socks
Welcome back, everyone. I got stuck for a few weeks there trying to make a perfect post instead of just a completed post so here we go. The days are hot, the nights are cold, and my Globe Mallow just won’t quit. This plant brings me so much joy. It’s been all socks, all the … Continue reading All the Socks
The Sock Drawer
Welcome back everyone! It’s the middle of March and we have some good news and some bad news. Bad news first: after a gentle, cool spring, it is officially shorts weather. My personal rule is no shorts until March and last year I was hard pressed to make it this long. An extra two weeks … Continue reading The Sock Drawer
The Yarn Room
Welcome back, everyone! I hope your Valentimes went well. Ours came to a screeching halt when not one but two kids came down with colds and immediately shared them with Mommy and Daddy.

Let us note, this is the same injury from when … Continue reading New Favorites
Hit the Trails
Some things are hard to do. Not because the task itself is inherently difficult, but because there is some other hurdle to mount before you can actually do the thing. Finishing baby sleeves is hard. Not because there’s a lot of knitting, and on this little sweater there wasn’t even any pattern, just the knit … Continue reading Hit the Trails
Citrus Season
Welcome back, dear readers. The grapefruit tree is on a roll and we are eating them up as fast as we can in hopes we will make a dent before the massive juicing party that inevitably happens at the end of the season. Speaking of things that are on the list of Arizona's 5 Cs, … Continue reading Citrus Season
The Year that Was
As we say goodbye to the old year*, the little ones and I are stuck home sick. Not an auspicious start to a new year, but here we are. Longtime readers will know in years past I capped off the year with meticulous calculations of yarn and projects completed. This year, I simply didn’t keep … Continue reading The Year that Was
