Magic Practice Mitts

Posted on May 11, 2022May 11, 2022by Eliza

A little over a year ago, I published my Dragon Magic Cowl pattern, which was inspired by Sabryn, a YA fantasy book I published this past January. I’m very excited to release the next book in the Charmwood Chronicles, Firstborn, in which Sabryn’s daughters join the adventures. Here’s the back cover blurb: When fifteen-year-old Zia’s […]

Silly Old Bear Hat

Posted on January 23, 2019March 25, 2019by Eliza

Munchkin loves Winnie the Pooh. This is convenient, because I had two skeins of yellow yarn leftover from a scrapped Bob the Builder “hard hat” that I gave up on making for Little Bear last year. (He got a monster hat instead.) Both boys needed new winter hats this year, and it’s become a tradition […]

Munchkin’s Toddler Socks

Posted on February 2, 2018July 25, 2018by Eliza Prokopovits

Last year I knit a pair of winter socks for Munchkin’s tiny little baby feet. This year my toddler-Munchkin is running around with much bigger feet. He doesn’t need thick socks to keep his feet warm in the baby swing so much, but he does need them to help him keep his winter boots on. […]

Baby Bear Hat

Posted on September 25, 2017July 24, 2018by Eliza Prokopovits

Is there anything cuter than a baby in a bear hat? Maybe, but I’m not convinced. We have a couple new babies on the way among our friends and family, and not all of them will need handmade blankets. (When the baby’s grandmother, great-grandmother, aunts, and great-aunts all knit, you can imagine how well stocked […]

Mini Baby Lovey

Posted on April 29, 2017July 24, 2018by Eliza Prokopovits

Munchkin is a terrible sleeper. Actually, that’s not quite fair. He was a terrible sleeper. He has gotten immeasurably better over the past year.   For the first six months, he wouldn’t nap unless I was holding him in our Ergobaby carrier. I would walk in a quiet room for half an hour until he […]

How to Knit on Double-Pointed Needles (dpn)

Posted on January 26, 2017July 24, 2018by Eliza Prokopovits

  Knitting in the round isn’t nearly as complicated as it seems. The beginning is the trickiest part; once you’ve started, you only need to work RS (right side) rows, never WS (wrong side – as in, if you’re using stockinette stitch, you only need to knit, never purl). If you’re doing a larger project, […]

Baby Socks Again

Posted on January 19, 2017July 24, 2018by Eliza Prokopovits

  Back in November, I knit a pair of socks for Munchkin with a pattern from Red Heart Yarns. The pattern was great, but it didn’t end up being quite what I wanted. For one thing, they were a little small–if it’s cold enough that I want Munchkin to wear warm, hand-knit socks, then it’s […]

Baby Socks

Posted on December 1, 2016July 24, 2018by Eliza Prokopovits

  *This post may contain affiliate links.* Winter is here. It’s time for hats, scarves, and in Munchkin’s case, booties. The booties I made for Little Bear for his first winter are too big for Munchkin, so I was looking around for a quick, easy, and simple sock or bootie pattern that would stay on […]
