Just how fancy is a gentleman’s fancy?
Not to mention: Is sozialism fancy? What about the road thereto?
Well, this Gentleman’s Fancy seems almost so fancy it’s ugly. Or the other way around. Right now, I’m finding it compelling in its complete and utter strangeness. So much so, that I might have just ordered a couple more [...]

I’ve never worked with KnitPicks sock yarn before, but so far, I’m liking the yarn. And not only because of [...]
I owe Stephanie over at Sunbeam Soapbox a long overdue thank you. Way back in September she passed along a Brillante Weblog Award to me!
Thanks so much, Stephanie!
