    I crossed my fingers and went with my gut instinct.   It didn’t work out. Clearly the mohair yarn is not from the Tapis colorway. Tamsie was right; Tapis is too dark. Yet I can’t find another colorway in the entire Parisienne color...

  • Running out of Yarn Again by Knitted Gems Designs & Crafts on Oct 15, 2009

    Why do I always get myself into these situations? You would think that I would learn. But noooo. I have once again knit myself into a corner. According to my original design (partially stolen from EZ’s Pi Shawl pattern), I’m supposed to...

  • Shawl and Bump Progress by Knitted Gems Designs & Crafts on Oct 5, 2009

    My weekend started off with a crazy plan to make all 50+ of the birth announcements we will send out after the happy occasion. (Yes, I know that the event is still 5 months away, but I’m ever so slightly concerned about my energy level plummeti...

  • From Generation to Generation by Knitted Gems Designs & Crafts on Jul 31, 2009

    My MIL sent me a wonderful package in the mail filled with hand-crocheted and hand-knit baby clothes. What makes these clothes so special, outside of the obvious fact that they were made by hand, is that they were worn by Dan when he was a baby. Plu...
