Hi there, I'm Emily! Fan of knitting sweaters, reading good books, and drinking all the tea. Iā€™m working on loving my neighbor as myself and being okay with making mistakes.

Thank you for stopping by! Please feel free to contact me with questions or just to chat.

Wearing and loving my new Odeline socks by @braidandtinker. They fit perfectly, and this skein of yarn from @littleskeinanne was a perfect match. Swipe to see the rest of the puppy who was trying to figure out what I was doing with my phone. šŸ˜ . Image description: green cabled hand-knit socks and puppy feet #OdelineSocks
I just went to my first craft night at the @taprootmag market in Portland and I loved it. I've been wanting to connect with local crafters and knitters, and tonight was a blast. I will definitely be back! I was a bit nervous to go by myself, but everyone was so kind and welcoming. Plus it's an event that happens after typical business hours which makes it more accessible for lots of us. I was too busy knitting and chatting to take a picture during the crafting portion of the night, but these plants from @broadturn_farm were my fabulous view.
This week felt like a last hurrah for autumn here in Maine. The upcoming week is forecasted to be full of rain, and most of the leaves have fallen. Apparently I've been wanting to hold on to fall colors even after October, because the yarn I've bought this month is very autumnal. So I decided to have some fun in the fall weather with my fall yarn! Trying to channel my inner @orangejeanius and up my yarn photography game. šŸ˜ The yarns featured here are: Sweater Weather on a fingering weight from @legacyfiberartz Vintage Fall sock kit, also from Legacy Fiber Artz Harvest colorway from @ontheround on her Everyday Worsted base.
A couple of years ago, I knit a pair of Treehouse mittens by @bmandarines. After a winter of them constantly falling out of my coat pockets, one of them was finally lost for good. I decided to re-knit the pair, instead of just replacing the one mitten I lost, because the original pair didn't fit my hands very well. In this picture (which features the toes of my little sister photographer šŸ˜), the one on the left is the original. I had somehow skipped a pattern repeat while knitting, so it was too short, and the thumb wasn't long enough either. I also found that the stitch pattern was a bit off centered. Enter new mitten on the right. Correct number of repeats, longer thumb, and more stitches between the thumb gusset and stitch pattern. Now to frog the original and re-use the yarn to finally have a matching pair again! . Image description: Emily is wearing two green hand-knit mittens with a tree stitch pattern. The mitten on the left I smaller than the one on the right. On the floor, just peeping in, are the toes of the eight year old sister who took the photo.
Thank you to @claraparkes, @knitwityarnshop and @print.bookstore for hosting such a fun event! And hooray for Knitters all bringing their projects to work on during the event. I hesitate to take out my needles at most events because I've had people ask me to put it away because the needle clicking was too loud. šŸ™„ But at a wool related event, everyone else is knitting or wishes they were and asks questions about your projects. So I may not be able to go to Rhinebeck this year, but this was pretty great, too. #vanishingfleece
Today is the day you can buy this beautiful and addicting sock pattern called Odeline Socks by @braidandtinker. Melanie even has a new video up with a coupon code to use this weekend. I hope you're able to get a copy and start knitting your own pair! .
