There is another new baby in the family so my needles have been busy! There is no greater joy than seeing a very small person all wrapped up in love from their Aunty.I am patiently awaiting spring here in the PNW (it's definitely not here yet). Spring always means it's time to cast on some lovely lace!I am definitely a gift knitter. I love knitting with a recipient in mind, or just having fun with a new colour combo, stitch, or technique. All of our patterns are Buy-One-Get-One-Free right now so click the link in profile to check out all of our accessory patterns to knit the perfect gift! ~AAre you a blanket knitter?

So the real question is...which pattern will you get to go with it?⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀Our eBooks are also included in our BUY ONE GET ONE sale!It’s time for that rarest of occurrences: A TCK SALE!Which part is the most fun: Choosing the colour palette? Knitting the sweater? Or saying "Oh I made it myself" when someone inevitably compliments your fine work?It's Tutorial Tuesday! I always love a stitch that looks fancy, but really isn't complicated, like the smocking stitch!Can anybody guess what I'm knitting? ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀It's #HanspunSunday once more! Remember the pink and green hand-dyed fibre braids I shared a couple weeks back? Well, I've been experimenting with plying them against each other, and with coordinating heathered top.Which way do you lean...simple colour pairings or I-want-all-the-colours complexity?If you've tried recycling yarn from second-hand sweaters, you may have a load of lovely new-to-you yarn that’s ready to go. And now we have a tutorial for how to knit with it! Check it out on the blog – find the link in our bio. ~ Em⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀When I first gave Bodhi these socks she IMMEDIATELY went for a giant, unintended, slider and crashed. So I put some suede patches on the soles to make them a little less slippy. ~ AEmail Updates
