What's more precious than a new baby? In my family we call them "newbies" and when there's a newbie on the way, I start knitting as soon as I hear about it! I have a trove of baby knitting patterns that I love to use, and since it's baby season (at least that's what I've...

In keeping with my resolutions, finishing my UFOs and knitting from my stash, I'm thinking about starting with the second one, and as I do, totally blowing the first one.

"Seriously?!? I think I can hold it until the temp gets above zero, Mom!" What is with this winter storm marching across America? It's so cold here we have to leave a faucet dripping so our pipes don't freeze! Don't get me wrong, I love any excuse to wrap up in my knitted scarves...

I'm taking several summer trips in the near future, and of course, like any knitter, I'm planning what projects to take with me. It may sound daft, but my favorite airplane knitting is lace knitting. Really! I make sure I have a paper copy of the chart in a nice plastic sleeve, and I pin or clip...

I might become a video nut. I bought a teensy weensy video camera recently, and suddenly, I'm realizing how much fun it is to send video emails to my family and friends, and take little videos of my new kitten...so when I went to the Knit-Out & Crochet 2009 event, sponsored by the Craft Yarn...
