đ§¶How to become your own cheerleader
The other day, I had just finished writing in my planner, âdo more journalingâŠâ When I picked up my phone and started scrolling (thinking âI should be journaling insteadâ đ
) And there it was. Felicity âFelixâ Ford of Knit Stars Season 6 fame was in my phone, telling me she has a new membership called…

đ§¶Knitflix and chill
This week has been so incredibly fulfillingâŠlike watching a ten-year dream come to life. Inside our Knit Stars Season 10 community, weâve been releasing and new masterclass every day, and the feedback has made every mile, every zoom meeting, and even the kidney infection worthwhile. đ
I know it may sound a little cheesy, but…

đ§¶ Whatâs new and whatâs next
Todayâs the day! Knit Stars Season 10 premieres today, starting with Cecilia Losadaâs masterclass. đđđ Itâs wild to think of all of the collective work, all of the rolls of film, all of those Delta miles and all of the stitches that went into the making of this mega Season. It feels so amazing, knowing…

đ§¶Trust your wings
This weekâs story is tiny but oh so powerful. Most people that know me well, know Iâm not a bird lover. Birds actually kind of terrify me. BUT I recently learned about the ruby-throated hummingbird of eastern North America, and I canât stop thinking about it. Every year, these teensy creatures begin storing up calories…

đ§¶In praise of âBook the Nowâ
Iâd almost forgotten what this feels like. The unadulterated thrill of holding a freshly-minted pattern book in my hands. Not just a pdf printout or a leaflet, mind you, but an honest-to-goodness book. A full three hundred and sixteen pages, no less. Donât get me wrong. I love the digital age. I love the instant…

đ§¶Finally, something good on TV! đ
Today Iâm going to get a little personal (well who am I kidding, Iâm always pretty personal here) and share about my own TV habits, and how Iâm trying to get more intentional about evolving them. So when Luke is in town, the TV is on a lot more than when he is traveling for…

đ§¶Shoo fly, donât bother me
The other night was one of those most magical nights where I live, along the Gulf Coast. I was walking Charles Barkley on the powdery white sand beach, thinking about something I recently learned. The secret of the famous sand is Silica Quartz, which makes up 97-98% of our sand. Itâs cool to the touch,…

đ§¶My most dangerous game
Last year, we introduced something new called 19 Questions. It was inspired by Vogueâs 73 Questions, a popular video series created by filmmaker Joe Sabia, where celebrities are featured in their homes or similar environments, and asked 73 rapid-fire questions. I loved the 73 Questions series, except for one thingâŠit was pretty clear to me…

đ§¶ My favorite book

đ§¶ Fourth sock syndrome? đŻ
âJingle Jangle Socksâ by Twin Stitches Designs âAll of our bodies are beautiful,â says upcoming Knit Stars Season 10 Star Julie Ann Lebouthillier. âTheyâre also very different in terms of feet, body, chest â everywhere.â âAnd a lot of times, we are taught how to knit a sock, but not how to properly fit…
