Vaudeville Shawl by Grace Akhrem Amodda Socks by Rachel Coopey "The only thing that separates us from the animals is our ability to accessorize." —Clairee Belcher, from the movie Steel Magnolias I watched that movie a few weeks ago; there are so many good lines in it, but the accessorizing...

Colorado is finally warming up, just in time to pick my favorite projects from the Summer 2013 issue of Interweave Knits ! If you haven't heard, Colorado was still getting snow up until two weeks ago! Ginevra Martin's Midsummer Aran is the perfect project to cast-on as the weather turns. In a...
Basilica, from Free-Spirit Shawls Vogue Knitting Live was held in Seattle a couple of weeks ago and I was lucky enough to go. I got a triangular shawl kit, which is something I don't usually knit. There's no real reason I don't knit triangular shawls, it's just that I've always been...
We do seem to go in phases here, don't we? Blog post, blog post, blog post, static and silence. Usually in those quieter times, Lisa and I are going a little crazy trying to get another issue of Knitscene off to the printers and eventually into your hands. The last few weeks are no exception.

I've just come home from the Sock Summit in Portland (my review will be on Knitting Daily next Wednesday!), and although socks took center stage, the crowd was a sea of knitted lace shawls, scarves, and tee shirts. I didn't have a shawl, but I sure wished I did! One of the gals sitting next to...
On Your Toes Socks by Ann Budd. Get your free sock knitting pattern now! I'm going to Sock Summit at the end of July, and I can't wait! I just started a new pair of socks with Knitpicks Stroll, and I love them. The design is a simple lace yarnover/knit 2 together pattern, and they're knitting...
A note from Sandi: This week, we have two new knitting goodies to celebrate: the book Inspired to Knit by Michele Rose Orne , and the new Fall 2008 issue of Knitscene magazine. I thought it might be interesting to ask three Knitscene designers what had inspired them to design and knit their pieces for...
The daffodils are blooming, the lilacs are blossoming, and that means it's time for the Knits 2008 Summer Preview! (We want you to have your summer knitting well in hand before the REAL heat starts, you see.) Who better to introduce the next issue of Interweave Knits than the editor herself: Eunny...
