laight.
Since this photo was snapped last week, my Laight Street wrap has grown exponentially and I am now more than halfway through the chart repeats and nearing the finishing line. The cable and lace is so beautiful and easy to follow and knitting on size 11 needles means its working up fast. Am loving every…

autumn in new england.
It’s here. And once I’m resigned that summer is indeed over, I love everything about fall. Plenty of warm days and chilly nights. And delicious foods and pumpkins and feed stores and fairs.

camping.
This summer, I spent most of my time on various amazing, life changing trips. Nights in a moon roofed tent, days hiking in canyons and swimming in secluded lakes. If I could go back and start them all over again, I would. If you want to see some snaps from my jaunt through the southwest,…

ombre.
Dreaming of something in purple ombres. Anyone have some ideas of what I can knit out of this set of colors?
