I’m just back from a week in Florida with innumerable loved ones gathered together for a big family event, where I had even less time and connectivity (and knitting opportunity) than I expected — hence my spotty attendance here. Among the many things I’m thankful for at the moment, one of them is finally being able to leave the house with my waxed camo Field Bag after months and months in hiding! But what I’m seriously most thankful for today (after my lovely family) is all of you and all of the support you’ve given to me, and to this blog and to Fringe Supply Co. When I think about how my life has changed since the day I learned to knit and started to blog about it … the mind reels. And I couldn’t do it without you — so thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for your ongoing support.
Since most of you are in the US and celebrating Thanksgiving today/this weekend, I’m including Elsewhere links here today and will resume normal posting on Monday!
First: Remember my post about Stella Tennant and Nov ’96 Vogue? Well, I now have both the US and UK (sorry, meant to say) Paris editions from that month in my possession, and none of those photos are in either one. There is a feature in the US one in which Stella tromps and rows around the Adirondacks, at one point wearing an ivory Ralph Lauren turtleneck very much like the one in that post, but now I’m dying to know where/when those vaunted photos were from. Some other Vogue edition of that month and year, or something else entirely? We might never know — but if you have any leads, please share them!
– 3 designers creating clothes for life — not the runway (thx, Claudia) — Maureen Doherty, especially, is my new idol
– How to wear a yoke sweater (on the beach!)
– If you’re in a group that knits for a good cause, YarnCanada might be able to help you with some yarn
– I love these Love More mittens and what Leigh had to say about them
– These Japanese dioramas blow my mind
– I’m crazy about Jen’s winter sewing plan
– I want a hat that looks exactly like this
– Congrats to Felicia on the launch of Soul Craft Festival
– and Tif has me obsessing over that Markham Collar again
What are your favorite links lately? Feel free to share!
Happy feasting, all — and if you’re in Nashville, I hope we’ll see you at the pop-up on Saturday!
