A shameless Allman Brothers reference, and another guest post by the fabulous TrishC!
(Unsurprisingly, though, I couldn’t help throwing in a couple of editorial comments along the way.  TH)

Tess and I were chatting one day about how we got started knitting, and we discovered some strange coincidences.
At first, it didn’t seem as if there could be [...]

I’m pleased to announce that my first "cheater" bear mitten is completed!!
These things are BIG.  I happened to have my once-a-day can of Coke with me, so I included it in the picture for scale.
The only reason it is already completed is because, as I admitted in the previous post, I knit the midsection on a [...]

What am I doing?  I’m turning my studio into a bear mitten factory.

That makes a total of 21 FO’s for the past [...]
