little bunny Asher's hat Asher's bunny Gabe's hat Gabe's centipede

I think that, within the circles that know me as a knitter, I am pretty famous for my baby gifts. Not that they are the best, most technically-advanced knitted items ever, or the most stylish, or even the best-fitting. But every friend who has ...

fall early winter tough pansies snowy neighborhood

This is what my back yard looked like just a few days ago: And this is what it looked like this morning: We finally got that snow to stick last night, even if we did get only about an inch. The wind has been blowing hard all day, trying to make...

I am not much for Halloween decorations besides carved pumpkins (and I mostly carve them just so I can have pumpkin seeds!), but for some reason this year I got inspired by a trip to our local Wal-Mart. They had painted old milk jugs and the lik...

DSCN1790 DSCN1789

This is the hat I mentioned that I made for T. It needs to fit under his hardhat, and it can't come down too low on his forehead, but because he shaves his head, he needs his ears and the back of his neck covered. So, I invented this hat: It's ...

Gabe's centipede basketweave scarf

I am still going on my knitting binge. I spent Monday knitting another little critter that isn't felted yet, and also knit a scarf from some really nice, slightly nubbly variegated wool yarn. Then yesterday I knitted a different kind of critter...

It's a neckwarmer, not a caterpillar twisted rib pattern cozy neck

I am still on a knitting jag, and this weekend I tried something completely different. A good friend saw my last post and asked for a scarf, but she lives in Texas. I know that it can get chilly there in the winter, too, but I didn't think she ...

I posted a series of pictures to my blog just a few weeks ago from a daytrip T and I took to see the leaves change color. I love the colors of the changing leaves, and in the mountains near here there are conifers, maples, and aspens, which give...
