It has been way too long since I last blogged. I've been very busy with work, friends and family, and moving. I guess it's just life in general, but I've let it consume me and I've spent decidedly less time knitting and zero time blogging. However, now I have some fun and exciting news to report. This past week I was interviewed by Lara of the podcast Math4Knitters. We chatted about my burgeoning designing, specifically Hestia and its unique sizing and construction. The show will air on Sunday February 27, so you can catch it then or anytime after that on Lara's website. Lara was lovely to chat with, and it was so very flattering for my designs to be noticed.
Knitting-wise, I've been in a gift knitting and finishing fog lately, and I couldn't find the brainpower to write up or properly photograph my newest design. Luckily something clicked last weekend and I am in the groove again. Here's a sneak peak at what I'm working on now:
It's hard to tell from this sneaky shot, but this is a beret in a cozy thermal or waffle stitch. Yes, eagle-eyed knitters, that is a buttonhole in the brim! This design will be the perfect opportunity to showcase a special button, so break out the stash and get ready!
I'm also working up a beanie and a slouch version of this hat, as well as coordinating mitts and an infinty scarf. If all goes well these patterns will be available both individually and as an e-book in the next 4 weeks.
