Subway Hooker: July 2009
http://subwayhooker.blogspot.com/2009_07_01_archive.html
Saturday, July 25, 2009. Flour Egg = Magic. Would you believe me if I told you that I made pasta? Wow, I'm not sure what to think now.but it's true, babies! I swear, it's some kind of alchemy, it is! Here's some pics, though I don't think they technically constitute proof:. Yes, my brother got married. Yes, I am still working on the Shipwreck Shawl. I am working on Section 7, where you add the beads. See proof here:. Yes, my BFF and I got sick on something from AQ Kafe. Back to the wedded bro: I'm going ...

Subway Hooker: 2013
http://subwayhooker.blogspot.com/2013/01/2013.html
Tuesday, January 1, 2013. Your Subwayhooker has been out of circulation for way too long and nary the day passes when she doesn't feel the burning desire to share a mot, Bon or no, with what appears to be some regular visitors. Imagine my surprise to see that some of you haven't given up on me. Rather than annoy the lot of you with maudlin excuses, lets just jump into it, shall we? They also have this fabulosity within:. Rather than drag this post out, lemme sign off for now and start working on making m...

Subway Hooker: June 2009
http://subwayhooker.blogspot.com/2009_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 26, 2009. It's Macrame, But Worth a Peek. Links to this post. Thursday, June 25, 2009. Some More Vintage Whimsy. Thought I'd post a few more of these lovely chapeaus. I particularly love the clever use of the stitch patterns in the top one. Links to this post. Sunday, June 21, 2009. First, kudos to my friend. Well done, Dora! But I even liked the articles by people I don't know! The laceweight piece and the Lisa Naskrent articles were both interesting and well-composed. Who knew? Like I said...

Subway Hooker: Where has the time gone?
http://subwayhooker.blogspot.com/2011/02/where-has-time-gone.html
Saturday, February 12, 2011. Where has the time gone? It's a bit embarrassing, this. Disappear for months on end, all the while working fastidiously on projects in the background. But there ya go. But what you really care about, if you care at all, is the yarnstuffs. And I have been making stuff, cranking it out, some dismal failures, like the Anthro Inspired Capelet. And Rosa's Sleeveless Cardi Jumper. Some lovely as all get out. See? But for some reason, I've lately glommed onto a desperate need to com...

Subway Hooker: December 2009
http://subwayhooker.blogspot.com/2009_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 6, 2009. And Boy, are my Arms Tired! Pushkin and his lovely wife, Natalya, frozen on the Arbat. St Basil's at night from Red Square. GUM on Red Square, lit up for Christmas. Graffiti on the Arbat. St Basil's domes, close up. Sweet mother of Crap! Have I really not posted since SEPTEMBER? Oh dear. Well, I can account for the last few weeks, anyway. I did virtually no needlework on either the 9 1/2 hour flight there or the 11 hour flight back! Links to this post. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

Subway Hooker: Vintage Hooking Rediscoveries
http://subwayhooker.blogspot.com/2013/02/vintage-hooking-rediscoveries.html
Saturday, February 9, 2013. But I thought all one of you might enjoy seeing some of these beauties and the scanty instructions that accompany them. Virtually every page has been rethought with an "improved" pattern glued over the inferior one. Another favorite, and among the books that compelled this hooker to bloody learn to knit, are these copies of Leach's. Take a look. Do I really have to explain? I mean, that cape is faaaaaaabulous!

Subway Hooker: December 2013
http://subwayhooker.blogspot.com/2013_12_01_archive.html
Sunday, December 1, 2013. A Little Book of Craftivism. We were in the new Rough Trade. Shop in Williamsburg today. Funny, but most of the customers were "of a certain age," not unlike your hooker here. Absolutely gorgeous shop, omfg! We paid $15 for a CD that was less than half that on iTunes! But that's not the point here. While there, I came across this awesome book: A Little Book of Craft Activism. What a fabulous little tome! There is also this (not exactly new) book: Craft Activism. Left in Bay Ridge.

Subway Hooker: Has it Been That Long?
http://subwayhooker.blogspot.com/2010/04/has-it-been-that-long.html
Sunday, April 11, 2010. Has it Been That Long? Hmmm I suppose I owe you a bit of an explanation, some reason why I'd abandon this little blog, if even just for a few months. Well, it means a real workroom - exposed brick walls, room for sewing machine, serger, and dressmaker dummies; room for yarn to be organized; for books and magazines to be accessible and vintage stash to be safe and viewable. It means a spa bathroom designed by a real designer that will look as nice or nicer than magazine shots.

Subway Hooker: January 2010
http://subwayhooker.blogspot.com/2010_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 31, 2010. Dunno about amazing, but I do like the way this shawl came out. The yarn, for those keeping score, is kinda sticky and harder than most to frog, but for five dollah, who's whining? And the colors are pretty (though in the subway lights, they seem a bit harsh). The whole shebang is from Lion - yarn and pattern. And true to my name, mostly hooked on the R, N, or D lines of our New York City subway system. So you know, the pattern is the South Bay Shawlette.
