Thank you for your interest. The wheel is sold.
I am sad to say I’m selling my Schacht Matchless Cherry wheel. I just don’t have the time to spin any more and it’s a shame to have such a beautiful wheel sitting idle. It’s only been used once for about 2 hours to ply. Here are the de... Comment - Like

I just got an email from Vegetarian Times with a recipe for White Bean and Kale Soup. I’ve mad similar soups before and this one sounds right up my alley! I think the addition of sweet potatoes will make it extra tasty Go check it out! Comment - Like

My shoulder issues have put a serious crimp in my blogging! Not so much because I can’t type, but because I haven’t been able to knit. Prior to surgery knitting was one of the things that seemed to aggravate it the most. It’s been extremely frustrating and definitely weird to be watching... Comment - Like

I seem to be on a roll with the posts this week. I’m sure it’s because I hate packing soooooo much, any distraction is welcome! This is not one of my original recipes.

Starting tomorrow, I’ll be at the Menla Retreat and Conference Center learning to teach yoga. The format is a week long, 100 hour teacher training “bootcamp.” (Does that bother anyone else, I mean, does the US always have to be different ie imperial measurement AND weird period/comma rules...

It can be difficult to maintain a knitting blog when one hasn’t been doing much knitting! I’ve had a problem with my right shoulder/arm/wrist the last 5 weeks that I’ve been trying to rest, as least somewhat. Some of you may remember I had surgery on my LEFT shoulder a few years ago so hav... Comment - Like

Every time we’re in Arizona, I’m amazed by the fresh produce. It is infinitely fresher, tastier and better looking than anything we get in Ohio (at least in the grocery store). I’m pretty sure it has to do with the proximity to California…less travel time to destination and all. Just l... Comment - Like

I was reading a newly discovered blog, Namaste, Bitches (just the title alone was enough to make me HAVE to explore it) and came up with a great question. What is yoga? Or more specifically, what do people who don’t really know much about yoga think it is? In the post “Takin’ It To The Stree... Comment - Like

It sure took a long time to complete what were supposed to have been Olympic socks! Even though I hate knitting socks on size 0 needles, I must’ve thought this Crystal Palace Panda Silk required it. It’s the first time I tried this yarn and it really has a great feel. The blend is ... Comment - Like

You may have noticed I’ve gradually expanded the blog to include more areas of my life. Almost five years ago when I started the Diva Knitting blog, I was hesitant to include anything but knitting.

I can’t believe I just finished my first quilt. I have a whole new respect for quilters! It seems like it should be relatively easy to sew a straight line, especially when you have a handy dandy 1/4″ seam foot. Turns out (as so many things are), it’s harder than it looks. I can... Comment - Like

It seemed like it might be worthwhile to try to repair the old clogs as long as I was felting anyway. I loosely added yarn to the holes and then threw them in with the new clogs. Let’s just say this wasn’t a successful experiment…best to move on to new and prettier clogs! This w... Comment - Like

I can hardly believe I’ve made it 6 days subsisting on rice and moong dal. Probably the worst part of this cleanse was that I had to tell a couple of friends about this to explain why I couldn’t go to lunch this week. Ostensibly, I know why I’m doing it but it’s hard to p... Comment - Like
