What are these tubes you speak of?
At Ewe Tubes, we’re a bit cranky. Meaning we love to use our circular knitting machine to crank your yarn into tubes for all kinds of awesome FOs, including socks, leg warmers, fingerless mitts, and neckwarmers.

Pen & Paper Society
The Pen & Paper Society began in 2016 when Debbi Stone, Lorajean, and I fell hard for a Hobonichi Cousin planner we saw in the hands of an LYS owner at the winter trade show in San Diego. That was it for all of us; we began to amass planners and pens and paper and pencils and everything we could. …
A tasty galette
I love pies. Pot pies, sweet pies, hand pies. Anything with a crust and a filling makes me happy. During these pandemic times, I’ve been revisiting the galette, an open-toped pie with folded-over edges. It’s delicious and delightful, and I made one last night.
