She looked a little cold. Frozen solid, actually.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

This pattern<\/a> has been an abnormally long time coming, considering how little time it takes me to knit. As we went into the winter, I was expecting a long, cold season with plenty of time to release a scarf pattern while it was still cold. With the spring and even summer-like temperatures we got in February, I started to worry that we wouldn’t have a proper winter, so I dropped some of the other stuff I was working on and finished cranking this out. It’s now out, fittingly, on April 1st. But this is no joke, just a bit of irony. Still, if you start now, it’ll be ready well in time for next Winter.<\/p>\n

The yarn I worked with is Lhasa Wilderness, a gorgeous yak and bamboo blend yarn from Bijou Basin Ranch<\/a>. These folks have been so helpful to me at the various shows I’ve been to that I decided I should really return the favor by designing something to promote their yarns. Little did I know this would be one of the most enjoyable knits I’ve done in recent memory, and the hand of the yarn definitely had something to do with that.<\/p>\n

It’s out now, available on Ravelry<\/a> for purchase — and much cheaper, I should say, than the last pattern I released<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In other news, my publisher Cooperative Press<\/a> is putting out the inaugural issue of their new magazine later this year — and I have an article on the creation of my 52 Pickup<\/a> pattern. Also, I’m now allowed to tell you that I’m going to be teaching ALL of my double-knitting workshops at BOTH Interweave Knitting Labs<\/a> in Fall 2012 — one in Manchester, NH and one in San Mateo, CA (my first west-coast appearance)!<\/p>\n

Also in other news, I’m planning to release an ebook of more Parallax patterns later this year — v0.5 was so much fun to do, and v1.0 and v2.0 are already on the needles. v3.0 and v4.0 are in the works, design-wise, and crazy things are afoot. If you like Parallax v0.5, you’ll love what’s next.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
