Knit a Necktie This week on Ask Me Monday, I revisit an oldie, classic design from my 2009 AwareKnits (co-written with Adrienne Armstrong) while showing how to knit a necktie. This project is a great make for dad for Father’s…
Vickie Howell is a on-air host, designer, instructor & community builder in the D.I.Y. genre. Read more here.
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!

Letโs talk about how our Craft โ knitting, crochet, or otherwise โ helps us cope with things like chronic physical or mental health issues.
Make sure to find some time this weekend to care for yourself! ๐๐ผ๐

The March YarnYAY! Box crochet project is ๐๐ญ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ต, 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.โฃ
โฃ
๐๐ญ๐ฐ๐ณ๐ฆ๐ต is worked with a sweet, as-to-go edging and optional, appliquรฉd, chain-florets. I designed it to be worn as shown here, scarf-style, but with the option to go full-shawl. You do you!โฃ

MODEL FUN FACT:โฃ
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 โNothing But a G Thangโ. That video didnโt age well, but man, she sure did! ๐คฉโฃ
