FARMHOUSE PRINTS: A perfect day - yarn and pie

http://callenson.blogspot.com/2009/04/isabelles-tomten-jacket-i-cant-wait-to.html

Wednesday, April 1, 2009. A perfect day - yarn and pie. Jacket: I can't wait to get started on this project! I knit one in blue/red and we are loving it! Is beautiful, strong and warm. I love how the soft blend of kettle-dyed colors blend together both in the skein and when knit up. You know how some yarn looks great in the skein and not so great in a ball/knit up? I also received this fabric pie at the end of last. Week An IOU I had given my father for last Father's Day. He will be the recipient.

FARMHOUSE PRINTS: December 2008

http://callenson.blogspot.com/2008_12_01_archive.html

Wednesday, December 10, 2008. Can you believe these yolks? The "yellow" one is darker than the store-bought egg yolks, but it looks so mild compared to the orange one! The chickens have gone from being good pets to troubled teens.instead of always laying in the boxes and going into their house at the end of the day, they are laying eggs off the roost and scattering around the yard at dusk.

Can't Stop Knitting: January 2008

http://cantstopknitting-lae.blogspot.com/2008_01_01_archive.html

Because I Don't Want To! Thursday, January 31, 2008. Look What Followed Me Home! Honestly, I just went into the fabric store for some cording and closures to finish off the bag. Honestly. But I got sidetracked in a big way, see-. Such pretty colors and patterns, almost as much fun as the yarn store! These bags are so quick to make. The hardest thing for me is cutting the fabric. I can't cut a straight line to save my life. I found the link for the tutorial here. Wednesday, January 30, 2008. But I packed ...

Finding Community in an Independent State: May 2007

http://pickingupstitches.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html

Finding Community in an Independent State. What is the relationship between community and independence? This is a topic I have been thinking a lot about recently. It seems that modern culture, particularly in the US, is so obsessed with independence that community has fallen by the way-side. Ironically, a healthy community is a key ingredient to independence and personal freedom. Maybe community and independence aren't antonyms after all. Tuesday, May 29, 2007.

FARMHOUSE PRINTS: April 2009

http://callenson.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html

Wednesday, April 22, 2009. I like to hoard. I call it "collecting" and that seems to justify it. Here is my simple "recipe" (I like it better than pattern) for the Spring Cleaning Quilt. I cut my fabrics into 5"x5" squares and sorted them by color: white, pink, purple, blue, green, yellow. I then arranged them by color on the diagonal, in the order listed above. I made my quilt 12 blocks wide and 18 blocks long. So.216 blocks (hmm.it didn't feel like that many! For a birthday dinner! I've gotten the pain...

http://callenson.blogspot.com/2009/04/easter-tradition.html

Wednesday, April 1, 2009. Extra Child and an Easter Tradition. Today is extra child day. It may sound like more work, but our dear little red-headed friend is so much fun for the kids that it's actually. Work to have an extra friend. So, Wednesday is my sewing day! Inspired by this post. I have decided on a new Easter tradition: pajama pants! I used the pattern from Amy Butler's. Little Stitches for Little Ones. Which I have expanded to also fit my older child.

FARMHOUSE PRINTS: Kitchen Rug

http://callenson.blogspot.com/2009/04/kitchen-rug.html

Tuesday, April 14, 2009. What happens when you have two little children dripping milk on and grinding scrambled eggs into a spot-clean-only rug? I think you can imagine the funk. So I threw together this patchwork rug as a replacement. Inspired by the rug from Patchwork Style. But not patient enough to wait for a copy of my own) I forged ahead with my own method. I think it will do. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Trout block print (click the fish to see more). Http:/ www.farmhouseprints.com.

Knit one, rip two. Repeat. February 9, 2010 by rippedoffknitter. Ravelry link) from Folk Shawls by Cheryl Oberlee. Dale of Norway Lerke. Colour 5063, maybe 8 skeins. Or 9? Not sure, might have been 3.5 mm? The shawl is huge and blocked even bigger but drapes wonderfully. It wasn’t until the 7th skein or so that the rows actually felt shorter. I really like the style of the Faroese shawls and would love one for myself as I often throw a shawl over my shoulders when the office is chilly. I have my eyes...

FARMHOUSE PRINTS: August 2008

http://callenson.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html

Thursday, August 21, 2008. Here are the longies I made for Isabelle from Elizabeth Zimmermann's Kintter's Almanac. I used O-Wool's cotton/wool and they will be warm and soft! They are from February: Some Babies Things, and they are adorable! I'm actually looking forward to colder weather so I can dress her in them! I also knit this Tomten jacket for Wyatt from EZ's Opinionated Knitter. I used Manos del Uruguay - the colors dictated by some yarn I had leftover from my Treeline Striped caridgan. You can se...
