Last weekend I went to camp. The event was called Wild Women's Weekend and it was held at a YMCA camp that I went to as a child. It was so much fun to go again as a "big kid"! Three of my knitting friends went along, too, and even though there were a bunch of activities on the schedule...

In the Fall issue of Knitscene , Debbie O'Neill brings us the uber-cute Heather Hoodie Vest. This project has quickly gained popularity and I wanted to pick Debbie's brain about WHY. She walks us through her design process, and I think the overall gist of the story is that this design was kismet...

A note from Kathleen: Even though I'm a knitter first, I look forward to seeing each new issue of Interweave Crochet . There's always something that inspires me to try a new pattern or stitch. This time, the inspiration came from an article by the ever-adventurous Franklin Habit. Here to tell...

We're having the most beautiful early fall here in Spokane. The air is crisp, the sun is shining, and all of my TV shows are starting up again. Well, I guess the TV shows are starting again everywhere, but that's still a sign of fall to me. I always knit while I watch TV, so I'm looking forward...

I can already feel a chill in the air at night—a sure sign that fall is approaching. And what could be better to ward off that chill than a cardigan sweater? It can be thrown on over a tee shirt and worn open or it can be buttoned up under a blazer if it's a little chillier. In fact, its versatility...

A Note from Kathleen: My main craft is knitting, but several years ago I took a crochet class because I expected that I might like that craft, too. And I do enjoy crocheting, especially for items like baby blankets--it's simply so much faster than knitting. What I didn't expect was that knowing...

How many times have you oohed and aahed out loud? I admit that I don't do it very often but I just saw the preview to Mary Scott Hufff's new book, New Stranded Colorwork , and I did! The designs are absolutely beautiful--from the construction to the color choices, there are going to be several...

There is something so special about knitting for a baby (and then seeing your knitted item actually on the baby). So cute! I love looking through baby patterns and seeing the adorable babies modeling knitted sweaters and snuggling with knitted toys and napping in knitted blankets. Since I don't have...

You love yarn. C'mon, admit it: If someone left you locked in a yarn shop overnight, you wouldn't call anyone to come let you out, you'd just stay there and play with all those pretty yarns all night long, till someone found you the next morning with a big dopey grin on your face. But our...

Note from Sandi: We all have the experience of seeing a sweater in a magazine and saying, "WOW!" But what separates the fabulous sweaters from the ordinary? Here's popular knitwear designer and author Vicki Square to give us her thoughts on what makes a truly knockout knitted sweater. Hello...

Note from Sandi: Here is Rebecca Daniels, editorial assistant for Interweave Knits , to tell us about the cabled baby sweater she designed as part of the Summer 2009 staff project: "Design an Heirloom." When I think of heirloom, the first things that come to mind are delicate lace shawls and...
