A small piece of cabled knitting sits on a fall themed bag that features squirrels, acorns and abstract trees.

I am cooking up a truly special Jewish Heritage collaboration with a fantastic indie dyer and maker. 🧶

Are we doing Blazers Blue Sky?!? NBA Blue Sky?!? Maybe yes? Please don't make me go back to the other place. I hate it there.

Every time I think I've settled on Cool Ranch, I have a Nacho Cheese chip and my brain melts.

The adorableness far outweighed any annoyance.

Hahah! I hope no yarn was seriously harmed!

A Ridgeback sleeps while snuggling into a blanket on the couch.

Meanwhile the old pro avoids entanglement.

Black and tan dog head snuggled into a bag full of yarn, with yarn spilling on her muzzle.

Can't stop, won't stop tangling herself up in yarn.

The setting is super easy to use and has made me a much better poster. Highly recommend it!

When the comfort of snuggling a project bag outweighs the irritating tickle of the yarn pull. 🧶

Two feet are centered on a fluffy backgroun, each wearing a different hand knit sock, with the matching socks sitting next to the feet.

I'm pretty dang proud of this new pattern of mine.

A single foot, wearing a hand knit sock, snuggled next to a sleeping Ridgeback.

I think I'm an ankle sock convert. At least for cozy, comfort, vacation snuggling.🧶

It says something about me that untangling yarn is one of my favorite pastimes.

Is it just me or does Blue Sky seem to actually be picking up steam? 🤞🏼🤞🏼🤞🏼

It's super simple colorwork and I've graded it for 4 sizes. If your size isn't there, just let me know and I'll send you instructions to modify it!

You know I trust you on these matters! Cocktails and sock knitting soon!!!

I'll be releasing a new sock pattern on Friday, including instructions and approximate yarn requirements for an ankle sock version.

If I had written down what I did, I'd share it with you because he's about the same size.

*that looks like Darth Vader*

Am I posting a picture of my dog, in a sweater I designed and knit for him, for attention? Yep. Yup. I sure am. 🧶

I saw that comment and immediately started looking for my pitchfork. 😂

Crashing a plane so it looks like Darth Vader?

I'm revamping a few hat patterns this week, just in time for fall knitting season. These colourways are also waiting to be revealed, but I can't wait to show y'all what these designs looks like in new colors! 🧶

I'm lucky enough to work with some amazing dyers and woodworking artisans, so I took advantage and created a beautiful new pattern. Once the dyer has revealed the colorway, I will too! 🧶

I've been playing with coffee art lately. I find my attempts may not be exactly on the mark, but they are a good Rorschach test. What do you see?

Always travel with handknits to make flying more enjoyable. 🧶

This is my ELO app. Everytime I see the icon, Mr Blue Sky pops in my head.

Seems real quiet. Threads? Twitter outrage over so soon?

Hello! I can point you to a few more designers that are lurking here, if you'd like.

I feel like that's information your host should be sharing with you!
