  • Fried rice pick me up
    I used to live in China, and there are some things that I still miss, some things I don’t.  One thing that I became very tired of in China, but now miss is fried rice. I went to China without learning any Chinese at all, and I had to rely on others for many things,  including [...] […]
  • Granola
    Granola is one of the things I really like to make.  I made some recently and this particular version is so lovely that I thought I would share: Recipe: 4 1/2 cups rolled oats 1/4 cup oat bran 1/2 cup sunflower seeds 1/4 cup hulled sesame seeds 1/2 cup sliced almonds 1/2 cup pecan halves 1/3 cup dried cranberries 1/4 cup dried currants 1/4 cup [...] […]
  • Lemon buttermilk cookies
    One of the most inspiring examples of food writing I have experienced is A Homemade Life: Stories and Recipes from My Kitchen Table by Molly Wizenberg — and I have since started reading her blog Orangette.  I made these buttermilk cookies with lemon zest cookies from her index of recipes today: They are wholly satisfying — [...] […]
  • Cranberry jam
    I made this cranberry jam recently: It is quite lovely, and simple to make.  I got the recipe from Nigella Lawson’s How to Be a Domestic Goddess: Baking and the Art of Comfort Cooking, and as she says it really is very easy. I think I may make some next year and give it away for Christmas [...] […]
  • Pistachio cookies (recipe coming)
    I made these pistachio cookies a few days ago: My boyfriend says they are like me — not too sweet and a little nutty. Next time I will put them on parchment paper to make sure they don’t get to dark, and make a few more tweaks.  I plan to make them a few more times to [...] […]

A few favourites

i love the shaping of the thumb gusset “seam” down the palm.

I really love your gloves on Knitty!

Hi, I love these gloves! Problem is, the yarn is phased-out by Rowan. The sub is the Rowan Scottish Tweed 4-ply. If I can find the Rowanspun, which would you suggest I use (Please email and tell me!) I love the colors in the ones on Knitty. Thanks!

Poethead: I like this yarn, but it really doesn’t matter which you use. Just use whichever you like the feel of better.

You can often find this yarn on eBay as it was part of a kit that was given out as a promotion for Rowan Knitting International. The kit was a pillow cover designed by Kaffe Fassett. I have seen several in the last few months.

I really love your new Knitty gloves!! I’m more of a process knitter–who needed some new gloves–and the thought of knitting up gloves on DPN was dreadfully boring. These are so interesting and exciting! I started them last night, can’t wait to see how they are finished!
