This is Dani Smith

 

I am Dani Smith, sometimes known around the web as Eglentyne. I am a writer in Texas. I like my beer and my chocolate bitter and my pens pointy.

This blog is one of my hobbies. I also knit, sew, run, parent, cook, eat, read, and procrastinate. I have too many hobbies and don’t sleep enough. Around here I talk about whatever is on my mind, mostly reading and writing, but if you hang out long enough, some knitting is bound to show up.

Thank you for respecting my intellectual property and for promoting the free-flow of information and ideas. If you’re not respecting intellectual property, then you’re stealing. Don’t be a stealer. Steelers are ok sometimes (not all of them), but don’t be a thief.

    Lace Ribbon Scarf from Knitty, Spring 2008, designed by Veronik Avery in J. Knits Superwash Me - Light Sock, San Jose colorway.  

    Quinn managed to sneak part of his body into every picture I took of this scarfAlas, no post-blocking picture.  It went straight from the board into tissue paper and gift bag and off to live with Vanessa.  Enjoy dear!!
