This week, our new sock based on the characters from Grounded: the Seven, is Jasmine’s Ethereal Socks! Jasmine: A sweet remembrance of summer. Calm and flowing and a support for those around her. Jasmine is the calming influence that we all wish we had in our lives… Especially these days. Before we wax rhapsodic about Jasmine’s new socks… Meg, Eleanor our awesome Tech Editor, and I all came to an agreement. From any and...

Here we are with the next sock in our series! Jenn’s Subtle Majiks! Look at this lovely heel!   Jenn is Rosie’s cousin, sweet, generous, and…well… you’ll have to read the book to find out more. Jenn’s socks “fit” her to a T! A simple-looking pattern, nicely refined, with a gentle strength that isn’t necessarily obvious right away. We think you’ll like.   Jenn’s socks,...

Knit in Riin Gill’s Happy Fuzzy Yarn (Corrie Sock in Cobalt) they will lift your spirits and boost...

First, let me introduce you to Rosie’s...

Lotsa socks! That’s what I’ve been working on, of late. Lotsa socks to go with my new novel. I roped in Meg Warren who designed Tristan and Isolde from WWMDfK? and the two of us have been going great guns, getting inspired by the characters in my new young adult (YA) novel Grounded, and generally having a free-for-all sock explosion in our heads.

I am SO excited! We’re finally close enough to the release of  What (else) Would Madame Defarge  Knit? that I can start to tell you about some of the goodies you’ll find inside. Like over 250 pages! Color Photos! Over 25 rockin’ patterns! (Did I mention color pictures?) Returning Defarge vol. 1 designers! Big Fun! No Whammies! One of the patterns (it was all I had time for) is from me— and this is one of those happy...
