A Pocket Project: Knitting Socks in Any Pause (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Some projects need a whole afternoon. A clear, quiet table, the pattern opening beside you, the certainty that no one’s going to interrupt you for that hour. But there are also the other kind: the ones that fit in a purse, the ones we knit little by little, in the corners of the day that comfort us, and sometimes are nothing more than a pause project.Socks belong, almost always, to that second group.October brings Socktober along with it, a tradition I first learned about from my colleagues in t
In Praise of the Predictable: Why We Always Come Back to the Granny Square (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There are days when yarn invites us to learn. A new technique, a stitch we haven’t mastered yet, a pattern that makes us read the instructions twice before we pick up the hook.

But there are topics, almost always in the shape of questions, that I feel don’t have the same kind of space. I’m a person full of questions; I ask them of myself often.

SERIES ::Pulling on a Different Thread:: When Being Natural Feels Like Not Fitting In (opens the original)
Read excerpt
There's a difference between waiting for something from someone and waiting to be seen for who you are. This week I realized I'd been confusing the two for a while.July 24, 2026 “I decided not to write a fourth time. I don’t think it makes sense anymore. At first I felt something like disappointment, or maybe sadness — I’m not sure which word fits better. Her interest, at the start, felt genuine.”August 14, 2026 “After two months, the reply only came because I asked.
