Place to Knit: Finjan
Visited on: October 3, 2025Rating: 5/5Overview: I love this place for my “me” time, I don’t bring people here when I go to knit. There’s limited seating in and outside, but I usually find a table pretty quick even when it seems packed! I get the Walnut Baklawa, always two pieces because I want two pieces! I get … Continue reading “Place to Knit: Finjan”

Life of a Knitter
Seems that Instagram/meta/whatever has changed the rules and such once more so my IG posts aren’t displaying here on the blog while I’m away. It’s been an issue for a couple months now, or feels like that anyway, and I can’t seem to fix it. At this point, I’m over trying to fix it even … Continue reading “Life of a Knitter”
Place to Knit: Sharetea Linda vista
Visited on: May 23, 2025 Rating: 3/5 Overview: There is space to sit and knit, but this would not be a place to come for a long time (No bathroom, heck?). Yes, Sharetea is a chain, so if you’ve been to one, you generally know what to expect: solid tea options, plenty of variety, and … Continue reading “Place to Knit: Sharetea Linda vista”
Place to Knit: One Paseo
I made a collective list of places on Google Maps, more on that can be found here. Ok so truth be told, I’m not quite certain if the One Paseo is just the side of the street where Salt & Straw is or if it includes the area across the street, El Camino Real. Either … Continue reading “Place to Knit: One Paseo”

A Knitter’s Life Update
Hey folks, just a quick note to say I’m still here! I ended up under the weather and haven’t been knitting this week. I think it’s safe to say I’m on the mend as I will be picking up my knitting when I’ve posted this. If you’ve been checking in, thank you for your patience. … Continue reading “A Knitter’s Life Update”
What makes it an Airplane or Bus Project?
There’s no set list of what is or isn’t an “airplane project” or “bus project” but there are things/patterns that are certainly more ideal than others. There’s a degree of skill and comfort that comes from knitting in tight spaces too. For instance, when I started out knitting I probably wouldn’t have knit on the … Continue reading “What makes it an Airplane or Bus Project?”
Knitting Terms
So if you’re looking for what ktog means, you can likely find a ton of websites to tell you! While some of those terms may seep into this page anyways later on, the idea was to focus on terms you’re not going to find in your standard intro-to-knitting dictionary. Airplane Project A project suitable for … Continue reading “Knitting Terms”
