  • Tasty Diner with Kim and Shannon

    This fall when Kim and Shannon came to town for their book tour, Shannon snapped a few pictures. She just sent this one to me.

    p.s. Shannon was on HGTV last night spinning dog hair for an episode of Knitty Gritty. I’m sure it will rerun on DIY, so keep an eye out for it!

    p.p.s. Happy Birthday Shannon!

  • Sneak Peek

    This fall I completed a project for Amy Swenson’s felting book that was a labor of love–a toddler’s felted varisty jacket. It took a very long time to complete, but I loved it.

    Just before Christmas, I was speaking to Amy’s editor about a different project and I mentioned how I was hoping Jay would still fit in the jacket when they were done with it. (often you don’t get book projects back for over a year, but Amy had said she thought I could get this one faster). Anyway, a couple of days later, I had it in the mail, and I gave it to Jay for Chistmas!

    I can’t show you the whole thing because the book’s not out yet, but here’s a sneak peek. (Of course, if you’re in Takoma Park, you may see him around town in it.)
