    About

    This is the second time I've knit this sweater in this yarn. The first time, the yarn was dark blue and the interesting features and stitch patterns of this piece were lost. So, I reiterated with this brownish neutral, Clover from Blackstone Tweed. Now, all can see the awesomeness that Norah Gaughan the Great has put into this design.

    I also let you take a peek at my yarn stash, my needles and notions, my books and magazines. And a few creations hanging here and there on the doors. This whole messy lot is housed in an antique cupboard made by my great-grand-father, and I find it fitting to put in a family heirloom all the supplies for a craft that was passed down from mother to daughter for generations in our family. It's not as tidy as it could be, but I always find what I'm looking for swiftly.
