…And now for a brief break from my regularly scheduled work: I just wanted to show you all how the aforementioned blueberry-dyed yarn turned out. I let this batch soak overnight and awoke to some lovely, lilac wool! Here’s how…
Dave and I were put in charge of making the favors for my best friend’s son’s garden-themed baby blessing. After brainstorming, we settled on decorative packets containing his birth-flower seeds. They turned out so cute, I thought I’d share! Make…
Greetings from California! Just a quick post to let you know that my Tank Girl camisole is up as one of the Surprise projects on the Summer Issue of Knitty. It’s simple tank top with a touch of tailoring…
Whether like me, you’re desperately trying to juggle everything while the kids are out for summer (3 weeks down parents, 9 to go!), or if the heat just has you feeling large-project-non-committal–this time of year is perfect for quick, lightweight projects that…
I took a bit o’ a hiatus from monthly free pattern offering but ladies (and gentlemen?), this feature’s back! After all, with the economy the way that it is right now we could all use a little crafty break, right?…
you probably think this project’s about you! Oh wait, it could be. Check out my latest Eco-Craft column in the current issue of KIWI Magazine–an easy to make, refurbished frame embellished with those small toys that seem to be everywhere…

I’ve legit been waiting for @ikeausa to have this glass case in-stock since mid pandemic. I wanted a happy little place for projects of YarnYAY! Past to live. I love a knitwear stack. 😍 It’s the little things, people!
(Oh, and patterns for every thing in this curio are available in my shop at YarnYAY.com ✔️)
Today's the day we kick off the Crochet-along for the @pompommag Overprint Bag, in partnership with designer @juliamadill
We've put together Montoya Merino Light kits in my YarnYAY! shop, but no matter which yarn you use (the called-for yarn is rad, but a little harder to get here in the states -- see Julia's great post about yarn substitutions), we'd love for you to make yours along with us!
Psst...YarnYAYers get a special 20% off the digital issue pf Pom Pom. See our kit page (tap or go to yarnyay.com) for details!
Join the YarnYAY! Facebook Group and/OR Ravelry Group to follow along. Hope to see you there!

Let’s talk about how our Craft — knitting, crochet, or otherwise — helps us cope with things like chronic physical or mental health issues.
Make sure to find some time this weekend to care for yourself! 👊🏼💗

The March YarnYAY! Box crochet project is 𝘍𝘭𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘵, a crochet, boomerang shawlette. The shape is more commonly seen in knitted pieces, but I love it because if you want the piece to be larger, you just keep working it in the established pattern.
𝘍𝘭𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘵 is worked with a sweet, as-to-go edging and optional, appliquéd, chain-florets. I designed it to be worn as shown here, scarf-style, but with the option to go full-shawl. You do you!

MODEL FUN FACT:
The gorgeous human modeling this shawlette, Kat Roberts, was the main featured young woman (swipe to see) in the infamous 1992, Dr. Dre and Snoop Dog video “Nothing But a G Thang”. That video didn’t age well, but man, she sure did! 🤩
