Looks like I won’t be heading upstairs to do any sewing this weekend!

It’s been a wild week but we’ve rebuilt the bulk of our website and it’s live once again. Still waiting to take the sew-along pages live, they need some custom dev work, but you can search any of them and get the posts.

Our site has been down all day, sorry if you’re one of the people who’ve emailed / messaged us looking to purchase a pattern. I’m working on it!

It's a strange time to be a small business and have to promote your work, but last week I released the Cortland Trench in size 32 and I'm very happy to have that added to our catalog! It's also 20% off this week on our site if you're in the market for a cute trench!

Well this looks much better! (Creepy unblocked pic further back in my feed). Already cast on the next pair – I’ll have an update on those sometime in the next 3-18 months based on how long each of these socks took me. #knitsky #handknitsocks 🧶

I truly can’t believe I found a second garment for these teal shirt buttons! Bought them for a photo shoot and thought I’d die with them in my stash. Though honestly I still probably will cause there’s a lot of them 🤣 #sewsky #garmentsewing #grainlinestudio #grainlinepoppy

Apologies to my neighbors for the absolutely unhinged scream run the three of us just went on.

Finished up a pair of socks today and honestly unblocked socks kinda gross me out. I mean look how creepy they are!! #knitting 🧶

Waiting for our supposed ice storm with tea, pattern formatting, and an episode of Murder She Wrote where Teddy the Beagle was FRAMED for murder! A beag would never!

If anyone needs a break from the news, here’s two silly photos of my beags eating beans. They make me laugh so hard even when things are falling apart everywhere 💕

More info on that tracking Town Bag and what the heck tracking even is if you don’t already know. I sure didn’t until Okie’s foster mom got us involved!

Tracking this morning with Okie! He’s wearing his new sweater I knit him. He did a perfect track and now I’m knitting a sock while we wait for the next dog. Also first use of my tracking #fieldbag mod! #sewsky #beagle #dogsports 🧶

A quick lil appreciation post for my number one favorite marking tool, the Blackwing Palomino 602. Perfection! #sewsky #garmentsewing

The artist inspecting her latest masterpiece. Such talent! 🫠 #sewsky #garmentsewing #beagle

Cozy, rainy day here in Chicago. Trying to decide what I should sew on my breaks but this fabric pile is so good it’s hard to choose! #sewsky #garmentsewing

Okay getting connected with the sewing community is underway, now I need to find my knitters! Here’s one of my most recently finished sweaters, Grove, it’s so snuggly. I’m obsessed!

Sewing + beagles 💕

Good morning! Thought I’d start the day off with an intro to my beagles since they’ll be showing up here a lot. Poppy on the left and Okie on the right, both from the fabulous beagle rescue Midwest BREW! They’re the bosses of my life and they take their job SERIOUSLY!!! #sewsky #beagles

Trying out the video feature with this gingham linen Poppy Dress. Don’t feel like I’m going to be missing trending audio too much #sewsky #sewing #sewingsky #garmentsewing #memade

Finally organized my elastic & binding drawer and it feels so good. Even passed inspection! Also what hashtags are we using over here? #sewsky

The boss made an executive decision the other day and signed us up for Bluesky. Now to find the sewing & knitting community!
