I’ve been in a black and white period for a while. Only purchasing clothes in black and white. I’m making a slight change. Blue and white will be my new foundation colors. With other colors introduced in my knitwear. #AmYisraelChai

I’ve started a scarf version of my Opal stole. This one uses Oink pigments for the MC and some leftover Koigu Kpppm I had in my stash. #knitting

I was at a chess tournament over the weekend. Lots of #knitting. Alternated between a new design and my Halyard sweater.

My Opal stole is ready for testing! 🧶I’m looking for about 10 test knitters of varying skill levels. It’s much easier than it looks, and it’s a great project for scrap yarn or minis. Runs to May 16. Sign up: tinyurl.com/opalstole #testerswanted

Opal shawl on the blocking mats. I used orange as my neutral. This makes a great project for scrap yarn or 10g mini skeins. Test starting soon. #knitdesign

A peek at my next design. This one is knit in Garthenor preseli. It’s so soft and plump. An absolute dream to knit. #knitdesign

Sunday morning. Knitting on my Musselburgh hat while making steel cut oats. #knitting

My knitting student made this! I helped her a little bit, but she knit the whole thing by herself. A lot of my job is hand-holding, translating knitting patterns so they are really easy to follow, and teaching the occasional new technique. Proof that you are never too old to try new things.

I cast on a worsted-weight #musselburgh hat while doing an online training this week. The yarn is some leftover Wool of the Andes from #knitpicks. Knitting helps me focus.

Any knitters ever have this happen to their finger before? My ring finger has the strangest bruise…didn’t do anything to it as far as I can tell.

Bobble Hat got teen approval today. That’s right. He took it. It’s a rare day that he will wear one of my knits. Hoping I got this one right. #knitdesign

Any knitters out there interested in helping me with this test knit? It’s pretty quick and really fun to wear. Https://www.yarnpond.com/pattern_tests/5163 #knitting

I would really like to buy a tufting gun. Then I could literally paint with yarn in addition to figuratively doing it through #knitting.

A few years ago, I was making these out of ball bands from skeins I knit up. Should I go back to it? Does anyone even use bookmarks anymore? #bookmark

Here’s some restaurants in Los Angeles who are offering free meals to evacuees who have been displaced by the fires: www.timeout.com/los-angeles/...

Hi there! I’m deb. This is my first day here. I write knitting patterns, and I am working on release after a 2 year hiatus while I went to business school. I’m planning on starting a podcast about how b-school has changed my approach to this crafty endeavor. I hope you will join me for the ride. 🧶
