Lumos

This shawl is ready to roll.


Lumos will be at Fiber Marketplace tomorrow.

This design features alternating bands of fingering weight and mohair. The construction is simple and makes for a relaxing project.


The yarns are Lillian and Shimmer in Cool Waters.  This shawl is lightweight yet cozy - very useful as we transition from winter to spring.

For the past couple weeks I've been searching for visible signs of spring.  I finally found a small hint of the season.  This week's color inspiration . . . 


A splash of purple peeking through.

Spring Selections

Planning new samples is an ongoing task.  I have a couple in the pipeline right now that are waiting on colors, so this weekend I played around with options.


I narrowed down the group and then I let them sit.  I checked in over the weekend, and I swapped out a couple.  I've gone in a completely different color direction for one of the projects, and I woke up today ready to make final decisions.  Sometimes it helps to let things marinate.

In knitting . . .


My Lumos is growing.  I transferred it to a longer needle, and now it can really breathe.  Progress all around.

A Day off with Garter

I'm starting to make inventory selections for my road trip next weekend.


On Saturday, April 6, I'll be at the The York Harbor Inn for the Fiber Marketplace.  This one-day event features a mix of fun, creative vendors.  Stop by if you're in the area.  Follow the link for details.

Yesterday was topsy turvy, and I ended up with a day off.  Sort of. Instead of work with the dye pots, I had bonus knitting time.


Lumos.  Garter with a simple repeat was just what I needed.  This project is growing, and now I need a longer cable.

An array of neutrals.
