The Copley dress is slightly over halfway done. I’ve started on the front piece and am a few inches in, but that’s a less interesting picture. The yarn is Purl Soho Lantern in Pink Salt. I’m loving this color sooo much. I haven’t held it up...

I never foresaw myself loving a sweater this fluffy. Cumulus Blouse is the name of this snuggle-of-a-sweater. I used Shibui Silk Cloud in Cove and took slightly less 5 skeins to make it. I love the light breeziness of this sweater. It weighs less than 125 grams. It...

My Mirage tank is finished and has already been worn a couple of times. I haven’t given it a wet blocking yet to smooth out the ends, as you can see in these pictures. I just gave it a quick steam and left the house. Right now the little wildlings (aka the...

A mohair sweater makes total sense right now! Ha! I fell in love last week with Cumulus Blouse after seeing my friend Michelle picking out yarn for it. I have no real use for a long sleeved sweater right now. I get to have input over the temperature in my office, so I...

What I’m posting here mostly today is in-action shots of some recently finished knits. While I was in San Francisco for part of last week, it occurred to me that the yarn for my recently finished Sempervivum shawl and So Faded were purchased while in SF last...

The matching pink sweater saga continues with one for me. I swear, I do knit other things, but my knitting world has been swathed in pink for some time now. This time I decided to follow the pattern for So Faded with the same colors I had for the girls. I had to vary...

I worked on this Carbeth Cardigan quietly in the background during our spring break trip to New Orleans and for a short time after. Lately it seems like lots of my knitting doesn’t make it to Instagram or this blog as often as I’m knitting it. Ah, life....

When I saw the most recent issue of Pompom I fell in love with this hat, Sweetfern. I used the recommended yarn, Neighborhood Fiber Co. Rustic Fingering in Reservoir Hill (navy) and Columbus Circle. The pattern was pretty breezy after a repeat or two. It all started...
