Happy Friday, friends — here’s a nice juicy Elsewhere for you!
– It’s #tolticelandicwoolmonth — I’m really hoping to finish my cardigan in time to join in! (having made that pesky rule …)
– Best online panel discussion title ever: Pussy(c)hat, March 4 at 12pm EST — I’m sorry to miss it! It promises to be a rich and nuanced discussion
– I’m honored to be included in an upcoming book called “Woods – Making Stories,” which is now in crowdfunding
– “Even as a maker, I’m a consumer. I consume yarn and fabric … which means that the guidelines slow fashion provides us with … apply to makers as well”
– Lovely scarf pattern with a heartbreaking and worthy mission (top left)
– Jenny Gordy’s sashiko-patch mending technique (bottom right)
– Anna Maltz’s back-of-the-envelope explanation for which way short rows should go (bottom left)
– “… starting the making process as adolescents, it often takes around a year of a person’s life to make one of these dresses, and some women continue to decorate and dye their garment for their entire lives …” — you MUST watch the video at the end
– NPR’s interview with the Monopoly thimble made me LOL (thx, Angela)
– I covet Jen’s quilt
– And this one (free pattern right there on IG!) (top right)
– I’m eager to listen to Marlee Grace and Mira Blackman
– I dream of traveling to Denver and taking Sara Cougill’s seam finishing class at Fancy Tiger, but meanwhile I’m studying Liesl Gibson’s Six tutorials for seam finishes
Have a marvelous weekend, everyone!
