Everyone came out this week to bid our subway knitter a fond farewell and wish her all the best in her new city and her new subways. We'll miss you!

Colleen isn't just the subway knitter, she's a subway celebrity now!

She and her Charlie Card Mittens have been seen everywhere in the news, including the Boston Globe. (Check out the whole list on her blog.)
We're all so proud - it couldn't happen to a more deserving person and knitter!

Colleen's working on more sockapaloooza socks! These are Pomatomus socks and she's made the pattern a lot easier by not twisting all the knit stitches. Clever, Colleen!

One thing I love about Knitsmiths is that we often get sneak peeks at things that some of the knitters haven't even posted on their blogs.

Here's a little fabulous something something that Colleen just finished. Details to come on her blog someday.

Colleen's working on the Madison Coat, a Circles knitalong project. It's a large gauge, quick knit project knit with three yarns held together. My favorite is the green Tahki Soho yarn. Circles has amazing yarns!
