needlework + seedlings: May 2011
http://needleworkplusseedlings.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 22, 2011. It sure has been a long time! Disclaimers aside; look at this pie I made! I used smitten kitchen's pie crust. And a recipe (which I have now lost) for the lemon meringue. Though the pie was delicious, I don't miss the recipe - the boiling cornstarch and sugar spat all over the kitchen and myself. Not cool. Nevertheless, I walked around the house with my chest puffed out, chuffed to bits with my pie-making abilities. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). A matter of degrees. Good god, let's eat.

needlework + seedlings: December 2011
http://needleworkplusseedlings.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 28, 2011. I apologize for my long absence - since my last post, I have moved to the beautiful Vancouver, British Columbia, and have been back to Toronto, besides! I have been crafting, but have neglected to post anything. I am going to try and post all of my knit goods and back date them for your viewing pleasures before I head back to Vancity, where surely my wonderful but busy Masters of Publishing program will suck my life away again. Tuesday, December 6, 2011. A matter of degrees.

needlework + seedlings: chevron mittens
http://needleworkplusseedlings.blogspot.com/2011/10/chevron-mittens.html
Thursday, October 27, 2011. When the first strains of cool weather hit Vancouver air, I realized with horror that I'd left my handknit mittens in a pink milk crate at my parents' house. Given that I'd sworn never to wear storebought mittens again, I ran out to a west coast knitting store to stock up on something to knit up some new ones, quick. Enter three bags full. A beautiful wool store close to my new apartment. I bought Noro Kureyon (also a first for me) and set to work. A matter of degrees.

needlework + seedlings: December 2010
http://needleworkplusseedlings.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Saturday, December 25, 2010. My cousin Michael's wonderful girlfriend, Laura, mentioned to me that Prada had made a TON of knitwear for their fall/winter 2011 line. Enter this headband. So, for her Christmas gift, I set about making something vaguely similar. My hairdresser, after I had once commented on his Prada shoes, told me proudly that they were "Fraga," which must mean "Knockoff Prada" in Colombian. Though I'd seen other patterns on the internet, I set about designing my own. Et voila. Row 8: sl 1...

Sunday, October 31, 2010. A taste of the old country*. I've wanted to be Luigi for Hallowe'en forever - and this year I buckled down and made it happen. After begging my much more easygoing friend, Fariya, to be "Fario," I got to work on a pair of Mario and Luigi hats to be ready in time for her friend's Friday night kegger. I used this pattern, buggerloo. Fariya and I at the Hallowe'en party. I put a retro filter on this photo - children of the 80s, unite! Last weekend my friend Nathalie and myself made...

needlework + seedlings: LJ's christmas mittens
http://needleworkplusseedlings.blogspot.com/2012/01/ljs-christmas-mittens.html
Monday, January 2, 2012. When I first moved to Vancouver, one of my closest friends, and nameshare, Lauren, followed soon after for a visit. We did a bunch of touristy things together and really had a blast. Here's a picture of us in Whistler-Blackcomb, in an inukshuk. When I drew her name for Secret Santa, I knew she deserved nothing short of handmade beauty, and sought to make Ysolda Teague's Snapdragon Fliptops. My favourite part, though - even more than the gorgeous pattern and colour? La vie en jen.

Thursday, May 3, 2012. Spring has sprung: strawberry rhubarb pie. So, it turns out that I can't bake jack shit in Vancouver without burning it. Nevertheless, very excited to cut into this fresh strawberry-and-rhubarb pie tonight! Used smitten kitchen's recipe, and her trusty pie crust (which can never lead me astray [which may or may not have something to do with the double shot of Vodka in it]). Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

needlework + seedlings: February 2012

Tuesday, February 21, 2012. In the post-traumatic stress of the hectic weeks behind me, I had a wonderful time working with an incredible group of girls on a magazine project, where we conceived of a magazine and overall brand, and, after five weeks, presented a twelve-page sample, business strategy, etc. What made this crazy creative process super-fun was that our magazine was about craft culture. To swagify ourselves and our audience at the final panel, we made more yoyos! 5 US size 6 dpns. Rep last tw...
