After what feels like an ETERNITY I was finally able to complete the editing and formatting for my latest pattern! The biggest hurdle in moving from designing-my-own-projects to Publishing-my-own-Designs has been the FORMATTING. Frijoles. SO MUCH FORMATTING. I’ve templated as much as I can. But just the line-by-line numbers adding up properly, centered, justified, and aligned; its like writing remediation reports from my days as an Environmental Consultant all over again.

I’m offering this pattern for FREE on Ravelry with the code “DeepWinter” from now until March 1st, 2020. I would love to see your finished projects on Ravelry or Instagram. Use the hashtag #deepwinter.

I love the knit spine, the alternating graphic blocks, and the 2-color bind-off!! I have worn it almost everyday since finishing it a couple weeks ago!

In addition to the day-to-day Momming stuff that I do, I’ve been working on a LOT of teaching samples. Yeah, I missed the deadline on 7/8 of them. Mostly because I didn’t have the ends woven in. I’m teaching again Wednesday night, so I can just bring the samples with me for display. Luckily for me, the deadline was mostly self-imposed. Later this week, I plan on getting back to active design work and productive knitting!
