Decided to do a quick watercolor of a snippet of one of my favorite quotes after work today. Hoping to spend more time with my paintbrushes this season!

Sometimes you get frustrated from dropping a stitch and don't pick up your knitting for a week. Back to work!

Turns out Amy Poehler is a knitter! As if I needed another reason to love her...

Tomorrow is the first day of spring! Cozy winter knits may be the last thing on your mind, but my brain-gears are turning with new project ideas.

In the spirit of spring cleaning, please contact me if you have any cotton t-shirts you are willing to part with! I'm hoping this project I'm planning can repurpose old shirts into homemade t-shirt yarn. The Tumblr knitting community has so much to offer -- I’m hoping you can help me out!

Thanks!

I've started some slow progress on my own version of the Hue Shift Afghan. I'll eventually crochet 100 of these mitred squares together into a cozy blanket!

It's complete! So so pleased with myself for getting through my most challenging project yet!
