Cable Crochet

A variation on the basket weave pattern I learned earlier this year--made to look like a rough cable knit.

Peru sees my pictures!

A paper in Peru, El Comercio, has published photos I took at Fremont Coffee Company a couple weeks ago. The barista there does some really neat latte art portraying movie and cartoon characters very well!

To see all the photos I've taken at Fremont Coffee Company check out my set on Flickr: here

AMA Supercross 2011

Last month we went to Qwest Field for the AMA Supercross. I rented a big fun lens for the occasion and just got a chance to edit the photos this week. The event was awesome and a really fun experience overall. My Flickr page has the entire set so check it out if you want to see!

Green Fixes

I had some pieces that weren't quite fitting so I decided to spend this month evening out the loose ends (in green of course).

Dragon Eggs

Easter was last weekend and I completely forgot to throw this photo up of the eggs we made. They ended up looking pretty rad, like little dragon eggs.

Bricks & Butterflies

What a month! Was sick for over two weeks of it and even missed a week of work. Once that horrendous experience was over I worked on my monthly project every chance I got. A brick stitch in the white cashmere blend was quick and turned out to be a pretty pattern while a fancy-fun butterfly stitch in the pink corn blend was a challenging and cute new stitch. I need to seek out new and exciting yarn shops this weekend and start thinking about some ideas for April. Here's hoping for an enchanting SPRING!

February Addition

This month I taught myself two new stitches. The first is this basket weave stitch. It's really plushy and makes for a great blanket texture. The yarn I used for this is a cashmere blend and SO soft! I'm really pleased I purchased it.


The second section I created this month is what's called a V stitch. I made it too tight so it ruffles a little bit but I like the little eyelet design that it created and think it looks lacy while adding a little bit of a delicate touch. It's the same kind of yarn as the baby yellow above, just in a moss color so it's very soft as well.
