Knowing When It Is Right
This past Friday, I had the distinct pleasure of visiting the Trendsetter warehouse during a brief weekend visit to the LA area. I know I should have snapped a picture or two, but we were a bit pressed for time, I am never good about remembering, and we, too, can still get caught up with the […]
Dreams In Color
If ever I was excited about some upcoming work, it’s about October at Eduknit! I know it was 100 degrees in Washington D.C. yesterday, and that the humidity was 85% at one point in the day; but no matter. As a knitter, I can escape all that and dream of Autumn.
Wrapping Up A Month of Stripes
We had a great time this month over at Eduknit talking and teaching about stripes. All month long we explored how stripes can be plain or fancy depending on how you use color or texture. Did you know that many 2-color techniques are variations of stripes? It’s true, and we focused on Simple Stripes, Mosaic […]
A Chat With Kellie and Gwen
Once again I moved around the furniture and turned my family room into a video studio for a few days. Gwen and I got down to business and got just about all the videos created for editing into our next few months of features on Eduknit, as well as some bonus videos just for 2sides2points.com. […]
Fearless Fudging
As you know, Gwen comes to Maryland about once a quarter to make videos of knitting techniques. Every time she comes, we get better and better at our skills in making videos, but perhaps more importantly, we’ve become nearly fearless about improvising, trying again and just making it work.
Gwen and Kellie, Together Again
Gwen was in my neck of the woods for most of last week and we spent all our time working on content for Eduknit.com. We have a lot of fun when we are together, and we enjoy the overlap of our professional life and our very real-life friendship.
An Interview with EduKnit Member, Melissa Ravencraft
Hello, happy knitters! Jess here, Assistant to the Experts at 2sides2points.com. I get to do a little blog take-over today because Gwen and Kellie are immersed in video-making for EduKnit. Recently I had the pleasure of interviewing a fabulous knitter by the name of Melissa Ravencraft. Melissa is a member of our EduKnit community and a […]
3 Different Cast-ons in 1 Project
It is finally finished! A project I have knit at least twice and with all the “rip out, recalculate, re-knits” probably more like three or four times. It doesn’t look like much on the display form that is about 4 sizes smaller than me, but this continues to the be challenge of working alone, at […]
Another EduKnit Vlog
This has been a crazy week, let me tell you. In a good way, of course. Here’s a little sneak peek for you, about the work that goes into making videos for a website: One week ago, Gwen flew to Maryland and taught for the weekend at the Knitting Boutique, one of my local yarn stores. […]
ABC’s of Double Knitting
A month ago, I mentioned about a friend finishing up a double knit blanket for her grandson. Personally I think it is amazing! It is the perfect example to start off the month of August! Our monthly theme for the blog is Two Sides (you know, like our name). Our monthly theme for EduKnit is […]
