f.o.: grandma's medley.

Realizing I've failed to document so many things I've made over the last few years as the audience for blogging dwindled, I'm looking at what I've made during this time. And even though no one is reading this, that's O.K. It's kind of a living record of how I've stuck with this craft and kept at it; how I've grown, explored new fiber, stretched myself to try new things and to take risks.

f.o.: regolith.

So this is the third pattern I've knit from the gorgeous Cosmology Collection by Kiyomi and Sachiko Burgin--it's the Regolith hoodie by Kiyomi Burgin and boy it's beautiful.

wips: little stripes for little bodies.

Right after Jackie died last winter, I knit a lot of stripes. They were all for little bodies. It was so meditative and allowed me to find color in darkness. And use up bits and bobs from my stash.

f.o.: fflur.

This is the Fflur pullover by Paula Pereira and it was a dream to knit. I used Quince and Co. Owl in papuan for the main and contrasting in barred and steppe. I didn't make any modifications and even used the same colors as the pattern sample.

f.o.: the dude sweater.

It's hard to believe I finished this Knitter's Dude by Andrea Rangel back in February 2021 and am just sharing it here, now. Because this cardigan, it was a triumph.
