Grasserie
This is kinda gross. It’s interesting if you raise silkworms, but if you’re easily squicked out, you might not want to click. Grasserie, a really disgusting disease of silkworms

This has been one of those challenging projects, and I didn’t want to jinx it by announcing prematurely – but my article in InKnitters is finally in mailboxes. I haven’t been able to find a copy at any of our local bookstores yet, and their website is still showing Spring’s issue – but I’ll post a picture when I get one!
I don’t know if it ended up being four pages or five, because they were doing some format work on it – but it’s mentioned on the cover (so I’ve been told) and what I saw as a proofing galley looked very nice. It’s amazing what a little layout work and some editorial spit and polish can do for one’s writing.
Needless to say, I’m very excited! This is my first article in a national magazine, and it’s something I’ve wanted to do for a long time.
This stuff is slow going – especially with having to rip back several inches when I dropped some of the live stitches and they instantly raveled back.
I’m quite pleased with the way this is working out. I’m 5/6 of the way through the first Full Repeat, and there will be 4 Full Repeats by the time I’m finally finished; it’s going to take a lot more of the “soldiering bravely on” mentality to get through this.
For scale, it’s 27″ edge to edge and 17″ top to bottom at this point.
