Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
Feliz (pronounced feh-leez): happy. This design is born of the settings, colors, movements and sounds of festive celebrations (fiestas) in northern New Mexico, my home. For me, a sociable introvert, I am inspired by the spirit of smaller more intimate gatherings, surrounded by friends, family, song, dancing, shared memory, flavors as familiar a...
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
Sonreí (pronounced sohn-rray) means “I smiled” in my mother tongue, Spanish. This design is a celebration of kinship and place. Throughout the year I often steal away to northern New Mexico’s Sangre de Cristo Mountains for fresh air and forest tranquility. As I step through the trees I memorialize my grand and great grandparents who lived and w...
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
CoLab is all about insatiable love. When I first set eyes on the full Brim color palette in our Breakfast fingering weight yarn, I started to play with various color combinations. But I just couldn’t settle on any of them. Finally, I decided on the audacious approach and dive in with all seven. I wanted them all…with not one iota of shame. Then...

But by the time I was near fin...

Knitting: Cowl
This design can be purchased individually or as part of my Lingerly Studio e-book, along with two additional designs: a hat and fingerless mitts.
Knitting: Shawl / Wrap
Waylandia is an airy shawl that thrives on the elegance of simple and clean lines. It allows just enough of the cool breeze through the fabric to let your skin indulge in the spring, but keeps you covered enough to keep the goosebumps away. Waylandia will no doubt make the other shawls in your dresser jealous for attention.
Knitting: Scarf, Cowl
This is a sweet little infinity scarf that is perfect for the beginning knitter. In fact, the model pictured in this post knit the Scales scarf she is donning as her very first project. She said she couldn’t stop going, and if you can believe it, when she was done she confessed that she really loves purling…yes, “loves” purling.
