One outfit, three shawls

I’ve loved seeing all the #todaysknitoutfit posts on Instagram, but as a work-from-home solopreneur, I’ve joked that participating would entail taking selfies in a T-shirt and sweats wearing a shawl. Which is not to say that I don’t wear the heck out of my hand knits,...

Indie Untangled is 5! There are some special things to celebrate!

What to stash this week: knit nonstop

Hamilton fans: here’s your next KAL. Next week, Mary Annarella is launching a Hamilton-themed Mystery Knit-A-Long! The clues for this generous, shawl-like cowl will have show references throughout and the pattern requires three distinct skeins of DK or light worsted, making it great for stash busting ...

What to do with yarn scraps

After knitting for 12 years, my stash of scrap yarn has started to rival my actual stash, though it’s admittedly a lot more compact. While I do save significant amounts of leftover yarn in Ziplock bags for use in other projects, to bring to classes or in case ...

The fiber community gives back

One of the many things I’m grateful for is being part of the fiber community. While meeting a new group of people can be intimidating, I pretty much always feel comfortable when I start talking to fellow knitters.
