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 […]

Diamonds and Ice

Usually when I release a new pattern, I like to share the story behind it… except that this pattern doesn’t have much of a story. I was gifted the Ella Rae yarn a while ago (it is a really pretty ice blue in person, though the color doesn’t show well in my photos), and I […]

This April, my husband and I celebrated our 13th anniversary, and it made me do a lot of reminiscing. We spent our honeymoon in a borrowed beach house in the Outer Banks. While April in North Carolina is warmer than a lot of places (including Vermont, where we got married and had snow), it wasn’t […]

Post updated 5/10/2022. I don’t talk about it much here, but I’m a writer. (Yes, blog posts are writing, but that’s not what I mean.) I’ve been writing stories since I was a kid, scribbling complete books on yellow legal pads. None of those early stories were worth much besides practice, but I’ve kept writing. […]
Midnight Wishes

Midnight Wishes is now available on Ravelry I’m at a loss for words as I write this. I’m so full of emotion (excitement, enthusiasm, relief, pride) about this pattern that I just don’t know where to start. So I’ll start at the end, or maybe somewhere in the middle, and work my way around. Midnight […]
Eva Lynn Hat

If you could only knit with one yarn weight for the rest of your life, what would you choose? I love variety (fortunately that was a rhetorical question), but I always come back to worsted weight. Even after making my Eva Hat in Debbie Bliss Baby Cashmerino, my favorite yarn to work with so far, […]
Eva Hat

This hat was a long time coming. I’ve had the Eva Scarf for over ten years, my favorite scarf for spring and fall. I’ve been wanting a matching hat for ages, but the math to get the lace pattern to work out across the right number of stitches was too intimidating. But it was worth […]

Show of hands: whose favorite season is fall? *raises hand* I love fall. To be fair, I just love living in a place with four distinct seasons—I love each snowfall, I love watching the flowers come out in the spring, I love the sunny days and even the thunderstorms of summer. But I […]
