yarn yarn yarn




I have been super busy lately...still haven't gotten around to posting about Rhinebeck. Well, hopefully that will still come once I upload those photos to my computer. Til then, here is a peek at some new yarn I purchased.
The top photo is a lace weight I bought at The Sanguine Gryphon booth. And, of course, just as I found out about them (I'm a little behind...) as they are ending their business together. Ah, well. The bottom photo was also purchased at Rhinebeck at the The Greenwood Hill Farm booth. I LOVE this yarn. It's soft and lofty...can't wait to knit a pair of mittens with this.
The middle photo is some pretty String Theory yarn I bought at Purl Diva. I think this will become a sweater for Immie.

Stay tuned for this Wednesday—it is my turn on the Coastal Knits blog tour!

liesl





Good Morning...

Want some cables to go with your cowl? Here is Liesl, my new design. Just in time for this chilly, chilly chill that has come our way! (I'm wearing this right now in fact.)

Liesl is knit flat and seamed together. Made with Lark in Peacock.

Available on Madder and Quince and Ravelry.

I have just moved into a new Quince office, which is great in so many ways, but also sad since I'm not working from home and can't sneak little moments with my Immie.
But, there's nothing to complain about, really. The space is open and white. I'll be able to have mini photo shoots here—making the winter months less of a hassle in terms of location hunting. AND, I get to share it with my good friend, Karen. Not bad at all.
On the table are pieces of fabric I have been cutting out for a little tote bag. Cecily and I have been taking beginner sewing lessons together. SO MUCH FUN.

ps: I have a new pattern I'm releasing tomorrow...

Quick post....a photo taken yesterday by Purl Diva's owner, Ellen, at Hannah's book signing. Cecily, Immie, and I couldn't resist heading up to Brunswick to join in on the fun.

More soon!

Good Morning. It is 9am and I have already been up for over 4 hours now! Just finished photographing a model at Crescent Beach. So pretty—both the model and the location. There's more, more, more photography happening later today. I've been spending a lot of time behind the lens lately for a fellow designer's book (due out next year). So fun.
