    Hit the Trails

    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…

    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,…

    The Year that Was

    Superlite Top is Live!

    I am so excited to finally announce the release of my first published design, the Superlite Top! This top was inspired by the decorative concrete blocks created by the Superlite Company starting in the middle of the 20th century. A mosaic knit hem and shoulder detail echoes the distinctive mid century blocks that can still…

    Sweater Upgrade

    Sweater Upgrade

    Deliciously overcast winter weather has finally arrived in Phoenix and with it the urge to knit everyone a nice cozy sweater. There is no explaining this urge. It will be hotter than blue blazes here well before I can knit four sweaters but here I am with my little brain trained on chilly autumns, long…

    Hi Courtney, I hope I can call you Courtney. Is that ok? We haven’t actually met but you played a show in Phoenix and it was really special. Many years ago I had a dog named Melba. A one eyed chiweenie my then-boyfriend, one-day husband and I found booking it across six lanes of morning…

    Well That Was a Year

    Well That Was a Year

    How are you doing everyone? Holding up ok? We’re all more or less ok over here but wow…that was a year, and 2021 is shaping up to have a similar level of tumult.* It started with a move, and then a baby, and then a pandemic, and a new job…and the whole “knit 17,543 yards…

    For the Moms

    For the Moms

    Hello all, I hope this post finds you safe and well. I have tried to start this post and failed several times. In the US, tomorrow is Mother’s Day, so some sort of celebratory salutation seems to be required. But the world is such a sad, suffering place I have spent the week filled with…
