Lovely Lacey Scarf

December 17, 2013 Leave a Comment

My take on a great, free knitting pattern for a beautiful lace scarf, and a bit about why I became an ambidextrous knitter.

Did you think that with so many things going on in Hands Occupied land, I’d forget to share more vintage meets handmade wardrobe posts? GUESS AGAIN!! 🤓❤️

Feeling particularly chuffed at this outfit because it lets this vintage chunky intarsia sweater shine in its intended, Lebowski-esque glory. / what I’m wearing: men’s sweatpants (the POCKETS are HUGE), slippers, and an oversized shawl collar cardigan featuring 2 moose motifs. Swipe for the front & buttons. Found on @etsy vintage.

What do you think of my very strong style game today? 😜😎#lockdownlewks #vintagehandmade

P.S. If you haven’t been following along, I have an elderly dog and sometimes sleeping on the couch is necessary for taking care of her. So we have a sleeping bag and pillow on our couch these days - Just a slice of life detail that I decided not to hide since it’s real, plus I like the colors & camping vibe it added to this shot. 😂🏕

It’s aLIVE!!!!!! You can finally order actual physical copies of my book, Latch Hook: 12 Projects for the Modern Maker!!! 🎉 🎉🎉🎃🎃🎃🎉🎉🎉 I promised I’d tell ya as soon as I could, so here ya go! 😆❤️🌈✌🏻

At $12.99 for a physical copy with 12 patterns and 16 pages of instruction, it’s legit a good deal. What say we sell them out so they have to order more copies ahead of the holidays? And get this baddie on the shelves of every library and indie bookstore we can? The only power I have here is y’all helping me spread the word. #latchhookbook is the tag (lucky me!), please use it widely!

Librarians, feel free to email or DM me. The ISBN number is 9781464781551 🤓

I don’t have a book order URL to share just yet, but I do have this free jack-o’-lantern knitting chart linked in my bio if you want to make something spooky this month! 🎃👻

Are you finding yourself more or less in the mood for seasonal crafting this year? If I’m being honest, I waffle wildly back and forth. 😅 #handsoccupied

Latch Hook book cover appreciation post! 😊 I have a lot of sentimentality about craft books from my childhood, and the covers of books I learned from as a kid are lovingly seared into my memory. This week I got to add another to my heart collection- a book of my own. ❤️ (Yes, I cried when I wrote that. It’s chill. I’m chill. 😎)
.

At the moment, I still have no book preorder link, but the crew at my publisher is hard at work on it. Crossing my fingers for next week! 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻

For now, please consider using the save feature on Instagram whenever you see patterns or interesting projects from makers like myself. 🧶 Saving is now kind of like super-liking our content, meaning that the more often a post is saved, the more eyeballs it will reach. Since I can’t use my ask for buying a super affordable and beginner-friendly #latchhookbook today, I’ll just drop this lil PSA. Thank you kindly, my dears, for your ears! ✌🏻❤️💛💙 #handsoccupied
