relocation




It's been quite a long time since my last update with good reason. I've left San Francisco and decided to relocate my yarn to Ipswich, Massachusetts. It's been challenging like any move is, but I have to say being in a more rural area is wonderful and downtown Ipswich is great place to make the transition from city to country.

My new apartment actually has a small studio off of the kitchen which has done wonders for getting me painting again and the impending winter has got me crazy about knitting with wools. Maybe a little too crazy as my most recent Kundra Wrap is a whopping 90 inches long and 11 inches wide.

Part of it was due to wanting a serious wrap/scarf for the cold that could cover me from neck to nose and the other was some hesitation to alter the wrap pattern to make the accommodation from a worsted to a bulky yarn. My reasoning was partially due to the fact that the Cascade Jewel yarn I used is wonderfully irregular and partially due to the fact that I hate doing any kind of math.

I have a number of projects I want to work on but it's hard for me to stop making these wraps as I love seeing them in different fibers and because they all end up getting sold or given as gifts!
