Right Now


On the Needles: Umaro Baby Blanket in Cascade 220 Superwash. I'm a little over halfway done.

On the Nails: Essie It's Genius

On the Floor: Rosebud Felt Bowl. I love this thing!

  1. Great blanket! Is it for anyone in particular? (sjn821 on Rav)

    1. Thanks, Stephanie! This is going to be for my sister, who is expecting her first child in July.

  2. What a cozy scene! Umaro is going to be a special blanket.

    "It's Genius" was one of my top favorites last year -- I love it, but it was so hard to capture the color in a photo.

    1. The polish may have to pay you another visit ;-)

  3. I haven't seen that pattern from BT, it's beautiful! I'm also knitting some baby things and using some Cascade superwash for 2 of the 3 projects I have in mind. I am loving it and love the idea that it is easy care. Your blankie will be lovely.

    Sometimes I notice odd things, like, your nails are shorter! I trimmed mine last night too, and now I feel like my hands belong to another person.

    1. You are observant, Kristen! I have been much more active in the kitchen that I've ever been, really, and I was doing a lot of crafts--all of which were taking a toll on my nails, so I've been keeping them short. I do want to grow them back out again eventually. I *really* want to sport a Louboutin mani!

  5. I've been admiring the bowl too, seeing it a lot on Pinterest. But I never realized how it could be used until you posted this picture! Doh!

    1. I really love it. It kept my yarn corralled while I was knitting on the plane and at a conference. No embarrassing runaway ball of yarn! The site I linked to was the best price I could find for it, but if you want to DIY, let me know, and i can help you figure it out.
