New Banner

I made a new banner for my etsy shop today and I think it might be my best one yet. Go check it out if you get a chance. It's raining here and All I plan on doing is curling up on the couch and knitting, and maybe drinking some tea and defiantly watch some Pride & Prejudice.

The evenings here are starting to feel a bit cooler and you can smell fall in the air. I am hoping this fall actually feels like fall. The past year fall has been just as warm as the summer to only plummet us in to the freezing depth of winter come December and we really had no spring here in Philly one day it was cold and the next was a heat wave were one was worried that the humidity would suffocate you.

This weather gets me geared up for fall and I'm contemplating new project for the cooler months along with new patterns, but I love to revisit my previous patterns. One of my favorite is the Fall of the Leaf Fingerless Mitts, I may have to make a pair in red or maybe orange.

What does the fall hold in store for you?

Fall Promotion

Today starts off my fall promotion in my Etsy Shop. When you purchase a hank of Alpaca Silk Hand dyed yarn you will receive a free copy of the Fall of the Leaf Fingerless mitts. This pattern is great for a quick knit gift and the yarn is scrumptiously soft and silky against the skin. The lace in the mitt pattern is great for semi solids and easy to remember once you get into the swing of things.

This promotion starts today and goes to November 5th.

New Pattern Released Today

Here it is my newest design the Fall of the Leaf fingerless mitts. I had a lot of fun designing these guys and went through about three different versions before I came to the final product. These little guys are perfect for a quick knitted gift for a friend or for yourself. A great project for a knitter with a bit of knitting in the round experience or for the beginner who is ready to get their feet wet in knitting in the round and a little bit of lace.


I knitt up these great little mitts with a new yarn that is also available in my etsy shop. Its an Alpaca Silk blend and is is scrumptiously soft and warm. Perfect for any thing worn close to the skin. The color pictured is Twilight Sky, as of right now it is the only hand listed in my shop, but in the days to come expect more Alpaca Silk to turn up and in the weeks to come expect knits to also be listed in my shop.

I am also thinking up some other quick knits as well as kits for the upcoming holidays.
