  1. front and back of our solstice card from this year, designed in postcard format. long alt incoming... front - 4 picture collage. 1 - i'm standing in the woods, looking to one side, wearing an elaborate knit scarf. 2 - silhouetted thistle-like flowers in front of a pink-purple sky. 3 - my wife brooke crouches down to draw a heart in charcoal on a beach log, with 'L + B' written inside. 4 - brooke stands on a driftwood-covered beach looking hella cool in mirrored shades. our dog kes stands in front of her and looks off to one side eagerly. overlaid is the words 'happy solstice' in cursive. back - split down the center like the back of a postcard. on the left side, a 5 picture collage. 1 - i stand on a rock at the edge of a calm alpine lake. overlaid is the words 'lee, brooke, kestrel, & the flock' in print lettering. 2 - an early spring fern curl. 3 - our six ducks, all facing to the left, not in a row but still very organized. 4 - brooke grins at the camera while hugging kestrel's head. kestrel looks maybe a bit distraught. 5 - silhouette of a heron in flight across an early morning blue sky. on the address side, i've added a dahlia to represent the stamp, and written 'you!' in the field that would normally hold the mailing address.

    happy solstice 2025

  2. ok so. five image collage showing the front, 3 inner spreads, and back of a riso-printed zine in green and light blue. it's called 'on the shoulders of giants' and it's about a knitting technique I learned from Stephen west and how I built on that technique. it talks about joining two adjacent panels without seaming, instead knitting the second panel onto the selvedge of the first. then it uses that technique to approach two panels knit with significantly different weights of yarn
