An Autumn inspired capelet
Estimated reading time: 4 minutes I love autumn. I like the smell of the air as the cold weather moves in. I love the shortening days and the time spent with the gentle light of the moon instead of the harsher light of the sun. I appreciate the way the…

Resting lizard cowl
Estimated read time: 4 minutes Sometimes you just want a look for the season. A theme, if you will. A way to say to the world, “I seriously do not need your fast fashion nonsense. I have struck out on my own and will be setting my own fashion trends…

Murder on the lawn
Estimated reading time: 7 minutes Allow me to be dramatic for a moment. A murder happened on my lawn three weeks ago. For most of the country, probably the world, it wouldn’t even be a murder. It would just be life, but for my family, and many of our neighbors,…

Crocheted sweater in Nightbooks
Estimated reading time: 2 minutes Continuing my non-scary, Halloween viewing even after the holiday, I’ve watched Nightbooks. This is not a scary movie by any measure, so it’s right up my alley with a very benign evil witch, a cute magical cat, and two children as heroes. I did not…

A discussion of crochet in Boo, Bitch (Netflix)
Estimated reading time: 11 minutes Confession: I watched Boo, Bitch when it first came out in 2022. I enjoy a little creepy viewing around Halloween, yet tween style scary is about as far as I can go without giving myself nightmares. So I watched it and liked it. I did…

Pushing Daisies: Pigeon
Estimated reading time: 4 minutes I’ve made it to episode 4. I think this is my favorite episode for crochet. It’s a good overall episode with the weird bedazzled pigeon wing and the windmills and the Birdhouse in Your Soul sing-along, but the crochet is really something. This episode, I…
