New Sweater: Take it Slow

Today I'm a little aimless in my projects. Not really working on anything in particular. I made a few swatches that I could maybe design a sweater from. Here's a few inspiration photos for a new sweater. It does feel a little liberating to take it slow.

Halloweens

Just some photos from Halloween weekend 2012

Coolest Yarn Ever

I found this stuff today during a knitting emergency at the local yarn store. Holy crap, it's awesome.

Neon Dip

Working on this project this morning.  My bathroom, my studio.

Miniature Knitter

I know I've obsessed over "Coraline" long enough, but this is so worth sharing.

Sunday Funday

Sorry I've been a bit absent lately!  The fall has been somewhat busy, but I do have to admit that I've been lazy on the blogging front.  This week I travelled to NYC for work, so I was looking forward to a simple quiet weekend.  Some highlights included going to the Turf Club last night to see one of my favorite bands, Woods.  They put on a great show, and I got their new record "Bend Beyond", which I can't stop listening to.

I also made a run to the store to pick up some supplies for a special mitten kit request, and some more white roving yarn for my next contribution to Ship and Shape.  Stay tuned!

Tonight I'm enjoying reading some zines I picked up a few weeks ago at Minneapolis' "Zine Fest".  My favorites are Jessica Campbell's "My Sincerest Apologies" and Flat Mountain Press' "Flat Mountain Chronicle, vol. 2."

 

Béatrice Coron

Last night Dylan and I watched this amazing Ted Talks with Béatrice Coron.  In her work, she simplifies her experience of the world into such an understandable way. Enjoy.

Tim Walker Photography

Above are some of my favorite images from surrealist fashion photographer/now film maker Tim Walker.  My absolute favorites are his bizzarly staged interior shots.
