April Sands

Posted on April 28, 2021April 27, 2021by Eliza

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 […]

Choose Your Own Adventure Cowl

Posted on March 17, 2021March 10, 2021by Eliza

I had different plans for this yarn, but I second-guessed the yardage needed for that project and decided to make something else with it. A warm, comfy cowl is always a good idea, and this definitely fits the bill. I’ve been wearing it for the past couple of weeks as I wait for spring weather, […]

Dragon Magic Cowl

Posted on February 17, 2021May 10, 2022by Eliza

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. […]

Crochet Flip Flop Slippers

Posted on February 3, 2021January 23, 2021by Eliza

A few years ago it seemed like I saw nothing but crocheted slippers and boots with flip-flop soles. They looked cozy and practical, so I bought a few pairs of flip-flops on after-summer clearance at Michaels. And then they sat in my closet. Meanwhile, I broke my foot and later had surgery since it wouldn’t […]

Ninja Beanie and Cowl

Posted on January 6, 2021January 1, 2021by Eliza

Welcome to 2021! It feels like it’s been a loooong time coming. I know the difficulties of 2020 aren’t totally behind us yet, but I’m hopeful that we can make this a positive year. For my first post of the new year, I’m sharing the Christmas hats that I made for the boys this year. […]

Sideways Pinstripe Hat

Posted on October 28, 2020October 23, 2020by Eliza

I love hats. Some people keep socks on their needles as a quick-win, carry-around-with-them-everywhere project, but I prefer hats. They’re quick and easy, and around here, everyone needs them. I like lightweight hats for spring and fall, heavier hats for the dead of winter, even headbands for when my hair is up. My nephew’s birthday […]

Snowballs in Hogsmeade

Posted on October 13, 2020October 13, 2020by Eliza

Snowballs in Hogsmeade—for sale now on Ravelry You may know this already, but I’m a bit of a Potterhead. I love the Harry Potter books, and whenever I reread them I remember what a brilliant writer Rowling is. I’ve shared Hogwarts house-themed charity blocks and a Harry Potter pattern roundup. And don’t even ask about […]

T. Rex Hat

Posted on July 8, 2020June 16, 2020by Eliza

I’m finally getting around to posting the second of my boys’ Christmas hats. (If you missed Little Bear’s Stormtrooper Hat, check it out!) Munchkin loves dinosaurs, and when I asked what kind of hat he’d like, he very quickly voted for a T. Rex. There are two ways to knit this hat—you can knit it […]

Midnight Wishes

Posted on May 27, 2020May 26, 2020by Eliza

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 […]

Stormtrooper Hat

Posted on March 18, 2020March 14, 2020by Eliza

I’m finally getting around to sharing the hat that I knit for Little Bear this past Christmas. He looooves Star Wars, so I knew he’d love a stormtrooper hat. I liked Sheila Stromberg’s Star Wars hat pattern, but I didn’t want stormtrooper helmets all the way around, so I just followed the stormtrooper section of […]
