In December 2022, the ShannaJean website was the victim of a catastrophic malware attack, and we fought it valiantly, but ultimately realized that the site had to be deleted (yikes and ouch). SO! If you purchased a ShannaJean kit from your LYS in 2022 or 2021, please email us at hello@knittedwit.com, letting us know what kit you purchased, and we’ll …
Adventurelands for everyone!
I am obsessed with the Adventureland Quilt pattern. There are so many reasons for this obsession, but the biggest one is that it hits my favorite crafty buttons: Uses fantastic supplies (read: Jelly Rolls! They are such a fun precut, and are used to such fantastic effect on this quilt); Easy to make (there’s not a lot of fussiness to …

Make the most of your yarn!
I’m getting real excited about this Spring KAL (and that’s something, because knitting has definitely been taking a back seat for all of the other crafts I’ve been obsessed with these last few months), and I’ve been working on adding more information to the Spell Shawl pattern (in fact, I just published the update a few minutes ago!) The 2022 …
Spring KAL Spell Shawl options
I have been in deep deep love with the Spell Shawl pattern since I first released it in 2016. I have lost track of how many I’ve made, and have done so many different variations, I can hardly remember them all. The first many versions of the pattern were all made following what is now the Original version in the …

Let’s knit together this Spring, y’all!

Socks (and Hats) on Vacay/Staycay 2021

Big Waffle Energy
When Lorajean and I were at the Red Alder Fiber Retreat in Tacoma, Washington earlier this year, we got matching heart waffle tattoos, to celebrate our friendship with each other and mutual love of sweet treats. Inspired by Leslie Knope and her waffle obsession and unflinching friend energy, we talked (and ate) waffles a lot on that trip. We wanted …
