Everyone has heard of it but what is not typical to us is that cialis viagra canada can do much harm to both foetus and mother.

Yesterday was the first springlike weather here, so I took the opportunity to wear my new shawl, WAYPOINT, instead of a coat to the Guggenheim Museum! My daughter was kind enough to take a few photos to show you the scale of the largest version of the shawl. I love the idea of an oversized wrap, […]
I wear a cowl virtually every day, all winter long! And I don’t mean just when I go out. So I am in constant need of soft-to-the touch, not-too-bulky, but still warm, easy-to-wear cowls. CABLED is exactly that! Simple and elegant, with I-cord edging and completely reversible cable pattern throughout, CABLED is the perfect accent that I […]
This one has been a long time coming! I actually swatched this color combination over a year ago and many of you know that I obsessed about buttons for the whole of last summer. I was afraid that the vintage buttons were “too much”! At times like this, it is hard to work mostly alone […]

A few months ago I decided that I better hone this skill and designed GRIDLOCK! As […]
There is no big surprise to the fact that I love Cecelia Campochiaro’s stellar book, Sequence Knitting: Simple Methods for Creating Complex Fabrics. I find 2-color sequence knitting to be so rhythmic that it is completely addictive. As a result, I have knit more than my fair share of pieces using the method, including 3 different versions […]
On the day that Theo was born, I started knitting him a cardigan. I brought 3 colors of The Plucky Knitter Cashmere with me to the hospital, thinking it would be a simple striped sweater, but I really didn’t like it. I turned to one of my favorite, easy-to-knit colorwork patterns, Garter Ridge (see BAYADERE). In 2 […]
I don’t have a lot of time to write about DYER ISLAND because our lab, Ash, is critically ill. But as I sat in the waiting room for the 3rd day waiting to hear how his blood work and lab tests looked, I decided that I really wanted to do something to show the people […]
