I meant to post these photos way before now, but I just needed a little breather after the rush to sew and photograph everything for the Project Farmer’s Market look book that Celina put together. If you’re following me on Instagram, or saw Celina’s amazing look book you’ve already seen these. But this photo shoot {…Continue Reading}

This crochet/knitting bag I made for Ellen my Package Pal through C.R.A.F.T.s match up was one of those projects that began well, and sort of felt like it was going all sideways in the middle, but then ended up working out pretty much as I had hoped. I started out with a sketch of the {…Continue Reading}
I finished the last of the chubby chirps last week – meet Chelsea! I know I’m really stretching a simple knitting project for all it’s worth, but I’ve enjoyed working on them during some evening tv watching, and I can’t resist the little speech bubble conversations! Since this one is supposed to be a girl, I changed the {…Continue Reading}

Don’t laugh! I’m by no stretch of the imagination a model, so try to just admire the pretty cowl and don’t look at my painful posing. Remember the beautiful yarn I bought myself as part of my Christmas gift from the hubster? I finished it all up yesterday. Well…. almost – I still need to {…Continue Reading}

Mmmmm…. Yummy yarn for some selfish knitting! This is Noro, a Japanese yarn. I’m going to make a gorgeous cowl for myself. Love the colors!! Hubby Dave gave me a gift certificate for Christmas to my local yarn shop and it was just about exactly enough to cover the two skeins of Noro and the {…Continue Reading}
I decided to knit up a little earwarmer for Arden after the umpteenth time I decided it wasn’t worth the trouble of trying to wrangle a hat over her ponytail. Since her hair is long and it gets all gummy with food if it’s not put back, 90% of the time it’s up in a ponytail, {…Continue Reading}
