Miss Birdy flew away, but we still needed to give her time to shine!

Trails & Valleys comes out in less than a week! Over a year in the making and I can’t believe it’s almost ready to go out into the world!

Had to share this list of ways to “treat yourself” without actively spending money that @pliesandhellhounds.bsky.social shared with me today. I love the idea of a day without “should”.

Thank you, I’ll have plenty! I used to crochet a long time ago and just started knitting a few weeks ago.

It’s been a great way to stop doomscrolling and reflect 😌

I’ve finished a Sophie scarf and have started a sweater. (I’m waiting for more purple yarn & am casting on a new cardigan as I wait 🫣)

So many beautiful projects in the #SkyKAL tag! Thank you all so much for embracing this project! I have a handful of prizes to handout at the end of February already!

Of course we welcome crocheters & other fibre craft to come & join us as well! Let’s keep it rolling!

I’m working on a new class this year all about side to side shawls with the #BennetSisterShawl, one of my most successful & popular patterns ever.

She’s getting a new sister shawl that is more textured with an alternative mohair placement & I can’t wait to share it!

Have you knit a Bennet Sister?

I just happen to have 3 good sock options from dyers that are already here! From left to right, @pliesandhellhounds.bsky.social, @littlelionheadknit.bsky.social and @valkyriefibers.bsky.social! I already used my blue @coasttocoastyarnco.bsky.social on another project. #SkyKAL #KnitSky 🧶

Lets do it! A Knitalong to get the community going here on @bsky.app!

Start something new (or pick up an old project) using blue yarn, any shade and use the #SkyKAL hashtag to post progress or finished projects. We will let it roll until the end of February. To keep things simple. See comments…

Should we do a Bluesky KAL? What are we #knitsky? Maybe we need to get some community flowing. I saw @botanicalknitter.bsky.social bringing a KAL over here and it got my brain flowing. Thoughts?

New year, new projects. One of my most successful patterns to date is getting a facelift for a new class I’m teaching in 2025. Debuting the class at the Unwind Retreat in KC in March.

Yarn from Plies and Hellhounds.

Picked up a copy of Knit a Farmyard by Sachiyo Ishii on a whim. This looks like such a cute way to use precious scraps (and i save every yard). Has anyone made anything from this series? #knitting

New to the neighborhood. It’s been a long time since I’ve posted on a text forward platform. Personally I love a visual so even if it’s not relevant, I’ll probably include some kind of photo.

Finding people and figuring this out. Being somewhere else feels very lonely and weird.
