Taking Start-itis to a New Level

By |September 19th, 2021|Categories: Knitting|

Canada re-opened and we headed east to check on our church. What with the anxiety about whether or not the border would open, how best to plot our trip, and the process to enter in a bit of a flux, we didn't really pack with our normal thoughtfulness. I almost always bring enough projects to last a year and do [...]

A Garden in Color

By |September 2nd, 2021|Categories: Color, Knitting|

It has been so very long since I have written anything at all. I think it is because there was at once nothing and too much to say. Still, here we are at the end of the summer with the remains of Hurricane Ida whirling around our place and I am still dreaming of the summer flowers Erik planted. Since [...]

Sweaters in the year of Corona Virus

By |February 23rd, 2021|Categories: Color, Knitting|

It has been a crazy long time since I have posted to this site. I could blame the pandemic, but really I decided I needed to spend every ounce of extra energy I had to help change the political climate here. I wanted to make sure that, if it didn't change, it wouldn't be because of a half-hearted effort on [...]

Springtime in Quarantine

By |May 25th, 2020|Categories: Color, Weaving|

I hope everyone is staying healthy during this weird time. I find myself thinking about what it must have been like in 1918 with the Spanish flu. Then as now, there were folks who realized social distancing was necessary. My grandparents, all four of them, apparently did so since they all survived, but they were a tough lot. My father's [...]

Hop Hop Hop

Happy Passover/Easter everyone! I have been away from this for a long time, it seems. Now that I look back, I see I haven't really written anything since last year. Lots of weaving spinning, and knitting - just not much writing. In any case, spring is springing, the birds are singing, and I feel the urge to get back to [...]

Weaving time

By |December 2nd, 2018|Categories: Weaving|

Traveling doesn't seem to lend itself to weaving, for some reason. My suspicion is that it requires a block of time when one isn't on the beach. This summer, I wisely warped my looms for weaving before I left. When we returned, I sat right down and started weaving. As is often the case, I am inspired by my fellow [...]

Travel Knitting

By |October 28th, 2018|Categories: Knitting|Tags: , , |

My husband and I have an agreement about car travel: he does excellent driving while I manage our audio entertainment, navigate, and find our lodging - oh, and knit, of course. His effort is by far the more challenging and, because he is so good at it, I am relaxed enough to accomplish mine. This year was productive and had [...]

Drawing to a Close

By |September 25th, 2018|Categories: Uncategorized|

Another summer, another advance in our church to cottage conversion. Ah the sweet smell of wood smoke in the air, the cool breezes, and the leaves turning colors of autumn. I feel it is also a time to assess our progress and plan for the coming year. What have we been doing? Here is a quick run-down. Kitchen [...]

Nesting

By |September 4th, 2018|Categories: Miscellaneous|

The last couple of years, as we worked on our little church, I had a project focus: here is what we need to do, what we will accomplish, who we need to call, etc. But this year, I suddenly feel like the church is really becoming a cottage. Nesting is happening, folks, and it feels good. First of all, [...]
