EDC Show & Tell, January 2016

January 3, 2016

Welcome to what I hope will be a somewhat regular feature for this year - part EDC, part What's-in-my-bag, part my special brand of awesome.

Here are links to any reviews that I have done for products mentioned in the video.  Below you will find pictures of each item, and if applicable the image is linked to where you can purchase said item.  (I could not set the click-through links on the images to open in a new window, sorry!)  I have no affiliation with any of these companies and I purchased or was gifted all of these items myself.  My recommendation comes only because I like the products and think they are worth the money.

Craft & Lore Northwestward Field Notes cover unboxing and review.

Story Supply Co Kickstarter reward unboxing and writing test.

A brief look at the 2016 Hobonichi and SSACK cover (full review to come soon).

Pen Talk #13 - A rant and an unboxing

December 8, 2015

You can find more information regarding the Blackwing 1138 here.

Btw, while I was posting this, BW put up a blog post talking about how they printed the design on the 1138.  They are even cooler now.

Sometimes, I take pictures of things...

Just finished my first pair of “work socks” here in AL! These have lived in my desk drawer since the start of the year and I get a few rows done when I’m in meetings or debugging code. The stripes matching up after the gusset was 10
Spherical farm animals found in the wild!
New podcast is up! Wherein I only talk about ~one~ project and why I’m going to shift my focus to being a very monogamous knitter for a while. Curious? Links to everywhere you can find it are in my profile. :-)
The body is finished! I kitchenered all 221 stitches of ribbing to the bottom because apparently I hate myself *a lot* but I really like how clean the bottom edge looks.
