Since today is International Women's Day, I wanted to talk about three women who have most influenced me as a knitter. The first is my grandmother, Phyllis Fissel, who taught me to knit and who patiently cast-on and bound off for me for years before I got the hang of it. My Phyllis and Marian dishcloth is inspired by the ones she always knitted. |

One of my very favorite things about fiber arts is playing with color. My project is the canvas, and the yarn is the paint. The array of color combinations are truly infinite, and provide an endless source of creative joy as you create your unique color story. We took two of our favorite patterns and reknit them in more colorful options featuring our Hawthorne and Chroma yarns. |
