Check-in – Lace KAL, Angel, and what’s next …

Hi everybody, This post is just as the title says – a check in on what’s on the needles (mine and yours), and what’s coming up. First things first though, you have until this Sunday to purchase a copy of Angel if you want to have a chance of winning it for free. I still haven’t decided on the exact contest yet, but the winners will have their purchase price of Angel refunded in full. That means you will have gotten the pattern for free. Not a bad deal, huh? So anyone who has gotten a copy of Angel […]

The Angels have arrived …

Well, today is officially the start of the 2010 NFL season. If you don’t live in North America you probably don’t care, but for a lot of knitters that do, it means that the next 5 months will bring a certain freedom on Sundays.

Still knotted up … in a good way.

Okay, I never went anywhere, yet, but with packing to move, the Star Trek convention, my 2 weekly knitting groups, AND the World Cup, it’s been a very busy week.  Somewhere in there I managed to design a shrug pattern using the Barrington Braid (and others) as well and am now knitting that. I will have pictures and pattern information as soon as I finish it and have Anne do a test knit for me. I think you will like it though as there will also be a Bolero option and both pattern will be included in the one. […]

Looking for some help …

Hi there, yes, you’re at the right place. I just decided to change things around a little bit and minimize the site. I hope you like it. So, let me jump right in to today’s post – I need help. I’m working with a friend in Poland to develop some motifs for another upcoming ebook – the first one has been well received and started a snowball that is getting bigger and bigger. The problem I am facing is not being born an octopus. With only 2 hands and 24 hours in a day, I am finding it impossible […]

Ebook contest …

I was listening to a webinar for a venture I’m involved in, and the topic of being creative in different aspects of life came up. In particular, there was the comment about being creative when trying to generate revenue. I thought about it and came up with a contest involving the ebook. If you don’t know, I have an ebook on this site about braids. Actually, just go to my last post and it’s all explained there. You can get a copy of it for $8, through this link – Untangling Braids – or by going to the products […]
