I am so HYPE for this hat! This pattern was one part passion, one part necessity. Driving across icy roads on a gray day in December, with no cell service, I turned to a bright, speckled skein tucked in by the sandwiches and extra mittens in our bag. I knitted on this fine skein for a little. Watching my kid Alpine Ski race and freezing my buns...

This was a stash-diver, springtime cast on. The misty green shade of DK from La Bien Aimee that I chose for this shawl reminds me of cool, ocean air. The main color is called Glacier. That inspired the name: Glay Shawl (a play on the word Glacial).
Knitting: Pullover
This sweater strikes that perfect balance between elegance and practicality. It’s designed to pull on when you want a little pretty without any fuss.

The stitch pattern is easy a...

“Color is where my designs begin. This design uses contrasting colors in simple, but bold and unexpected ways. Using muted colorways will give the cardigan a playful, vintage feel.

This pattern was inspired by chilly morning walks to get the Sunday edition of the New York Times. A cozy hat designed to warm our heads while we walk.

This pullover sweater is knitted from the top down with raglan shaping. It features a lacework panel in the center and pronounced raglan seams.

Knitting: Pullover
I love vintage skull art and anatomy books. My kids tease me regularly for snapping pictures of the bones that we find in the woods. But I can’t help it. I’m an armchair phenologist who loves the distinct seasons that we have where I live. And the steady, predictable cycles of birth and death in nature. This sweater was designed in celebration ...
Knitting: Pullover
This top down sweater was designed with my favorite (only) daughter in mind. She is brave and bold and a kind of everything-on-it, maximalist kind of human. Her current favorite artist is Billy Eillish and Eillish’s most recent album is called “Happier Than Ever.” This sweater is an homage to that song and to my kid.

I designed this hat for my son this October. He requested a wool hat with skulls on it to wear at his cross country meets. He also asked that I add in some lightning bolts in honor of his team’s name the “North Shore Storm.” I love this season of harvest, of darkness and of letting go with the new year on our horizon. I get kind of an expecting...

This project was inspired by a new local yarn shop that popped up in my hometown during the summer of 2021. Dappled Fern Fibers in Grand Marais, Minnesota is a serene little hideaway just off of Lake Superior’s shore that offers a thoughtful collection of fiber, books and notions. The store is a sensory treat!

For this Wardrobe-Workhorse, Stash-Manager Cardigan, I decided to pile up the yarns from my stash in the same weight, that had been dyed some version of yellow and make the most of those skeins! I used one main color to ground the speckles and that’s the one that I used for the button band, cuffs and bottom ribbing too. I used one colorway to k...

I like to have a couple of quick knits in my back pocket. Perfect for last minute gifting, neck warming or casting on in the dark when I can’t sleep and I haven’t got anything on my needles.

In the Boreal forest where I live, the summers are short and the winters are long.

This hat was designed with texture in mind. And the honeycomb stitch pattern is easily memorizable. It will fit kid and adult heads alike. I like the smaller size for a closer, sporty fit. I wear the larger hat with the giant pom when I’m craving some slouch.
