		<title>Handwork Mitts, Interweave Knits Holiday Gifts 2011</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I received a copy of Interweave Knits Holiday Gifts 2011 last week. Lo and behold, my ongoing desire to design fingerless mitts patterns continues to bear fruit. Designed to fit into the section titled &#8220;A House With Gables&#8221; theme (for the projects&#8217; ornate embellishments), I LOVED creating the Handwork Mitts design. Not only do these mitts include a feminine [...]]]></description>

		<title>Early Fall: Introducing the Fan-cy Fingerless Mitts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This design has been incubating in my pattern file for a while, just waiting for the first cool evening of early fall to make its debut. The Fan-cy Fingerless Mitts take their name from the fan-like lace and bobble motif that graces the back of each mitt, as well as the dressed-up picot edging that [...]]]></description>

		<title>Quercus Correction</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Thanks to those of you who pointed out the fact that something looked a little wonky on the Quercus Body Chart. You were right, and the correction was promptly made by the diligent folks at Knitty (thank you, Knitty!).  The problem is in the cable crosses of the small side cables in the Body Chart [...]]]></description>

		<title>Introducing the Quercus Cardigan</title>
		<description><![CDATA[This has been a hard secret to keep. Really, really hard. I&#8217;m not known for my patience, nor for my love of delayed gratification. But for Knitty&#8217;s First Fall Surprise issue, it was worth it. Say hello to the Quercus Cardigan, featured in the new First Fall and Holiday Headstart Surprise issue of Knitty.com. I&#8217;ve submitted [...]]]></description>

		<title>Change Is Good&#8230; Right?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Lots going on here in my little corner of the blogosphere. So much, in fact, that this summer whizzed by without a single blog post since June. So I have to ask, Does this thing still work? And is anybody still out there? Because very soon I will be leaving this: For this: And this [...]]]></description>

		<title>A Good Rant Is Hard To Find</title>
		<description><![CDATA[But before I get all wound up, I&#8217;ve got to show you the second version of the Gyroscopic Cardigan, expertly modeled by my photogenic friend, Suzy: Isn&#8217;t the color gorgeous? I adore how it shows off the Gyroscope Cable motif. My test knitter, Glenna, did a fabulous job with all the details.   The pattern is with [...]]]></description>

		<title>Correction to Origami Shrug Pattern in Brave New Knits</title>
		<description><![CDATA[**This post has been edited to reflect a further correction from Melissa, which is that Rows 16 and 18 are worked the same. The Origami Shrug&#8217;s designer, Melissa Wehrle, just brought a correction to my attention for this pattern in Brave New Knits. This error was caught so late because, she thinks, most knitters are [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While my lovely test knitter, Glenna, works on a gorgeous, soft, and cheerful sunflower yellow version of the Gyroscopic Cardigan, (with 3/4-length sleeves), I am poring over the pattern.

		<title>Down For the Count</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I had foot surgery today to remove a neuroma that had been causing me lots of pain for over a year. The worst part of the surgery was the anaesthesia injections. My daughter could hear me yelling from out in the waiting room. And this follows last week&#8217;s cortisone injection in my spine for a [...]]]></description>
