California Revival Knits, and a giveaway!!
Stephannie Tallent‘s new book, California Revival Knits, was released by Cooperative Press last week. Hooray! It features fourteen different patterns. Each item is based on the architecture and design of the California Revival period in the 1920s. The book itself is just gorgeous. It begins with a wonderful walk-through of Stephannie’s obsession with [...]

in which there is something like resolve
Resolutions are bullshit. Okay, maybe they work for you, but they only half- work for me. Every year, my Resolution Number One is “Don’t Die” and so far I am acing that. But when it comes to going to the gym four times a week, swearing less, taking underwater ballistic ballroom basket- weaving lessons [...]

in which there is an ending, a beginning, and a new adventure
The news is true: The Sanguine Gryphon is disbanding. In January 2012, Cephalopod Yarns is beginning. I’m spending tonight caught between two places, in limbo between 2.5 years of hard work and a future of new adventures. I don’t know what to say tonight. This is hard, because it is both an end and a [...]

in which there is disclosure
To be honest: I’ve been avoiding you. It’s been a long and challenging few months; challenging in a mostly positive way, but stress is still stress, and I haven’t had the words to really articulate what I’ve been experiencing. That isn’t 100% honest, either: I have the words, I’m just lacking the readiness. So much [...]

in which I am still amazed
I’ve working through old blog entries, repairing broken links and photos. I’ve only just come to the section of my blog where I’d documented both leaving for and initially arriving in Afghanistan, and I am still so surprised that I did that: to leave home, to be there, to stay. My life is so different [...]

catastrophizing 101 (some days are)
Some days, nothing is going right. Did you ever read the kid’s book, “Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day“? Some days are just like that. Some days are all about doing laundry all day long because there are no clean sheets or towels or kitchen linens or underwear and the silk [...]
