Yarn Forward, Knit Past. April 15, 2015. This photo was taken before I blocked the cardigan. I finally finished my first Andi Satterlund cardigan pattern and it is PERFECT. It fits me beautifully.

Book: Vintage Cakes – Yarn Forward, Knit Past
https://yarnforwardknitpast.wordpress.com/2015/03/28/book-vintage-cakes
Yarn Forward, Knit Past. March 28, 2015. March 19, 2015. I’ve been following Jane Brocket since the early days of her Yarnstorm blog. Then she started publishing wonderful books like T he Gentle Art of Domesticity. The Gentle Art of Knitting. And The Gentle Art of Stitching. One of my favorite things in Domesticity were the classic English cake recipes so I was thrilled that she published a whole book of Vintage Cakes. The Celebration Cake looks like a perfect Easter treat. Leave a Reply Cancel reply.

Yarn Forward, Knit Past. Review: The Worn Archive. May 11, 2015. I picked up a copy of the The WORN Archive: A Fashion Journal about the Art, Ideas, and History of What We Wear. On a whim while in Portland last October. I have read most of the articles in the 400 page book which is an anthology of the first 14 issues of the Worn Fashion Journal. The book is printed on heavyweight uncoated paper that makes it feel like an art book and is filled with great illustrations. Its also beautifully designed.
