Hello and Happy Friday! How was your week? Are you gearing up for summer? My kids are almost out of school and I can’t wait for the world to slow down a little. I wore this wrap for the first time in ages this week. Now I want another one! 🤣🤪 I want to make it in all one yarn and make it a little wider by adding stitches in multiples of 10. It’s a really versatile piece, which I’m totally in to right now. I also love how the tapered ends make it drape nicer than a straight rectangle. I originally designed this for a collab with Matchmaker Yarns, so mine is knit in the 3 yarns from the kit that were inspired by the painting The Kiss. If I make myself a new one, I’ll obviously use something with pink. 🤪 I shared my views on weaving in ends and following the rules of knitting this week. Check it out here. That’s about all I have for you this week. Have a great weekend! If you want more… Browse my Etsy shop See all my patterns on Ravelry |

And it took some time for the vet to figure out what it was, so lots of cone time. I don't know if you can tell from photos, but Bruno has the neck of a giraffe. We tried a cone that was tiny enough to fit around his neck and he could reach right around it. Then we tried combining a stuffed donut with the little cone. No luck....
Hey there! How are you!?! I’m feeling invigorated this week! I took last week off for a staycation. After a long, lazy summer, I had some housekeeping to do. Fall is my favorite season, and September through December are my busiest/funnest months of the year. I like to head into this time prepared, so I can really enjoy it. Chris and I spent the week cleaning, hanging art, setting up the bones of my art studio, and getting out Halloween decorations. And we topped it off with a concert! We saw...
Hello! Friday again! How was your week? I have one more ear to put on my Cat Hat! Wait ‘til you see what I did. 🫣 When I took it out to finally finish, there were 3 sizes of needles in the project bag. And I, of all people, didn’t have a project sheet in there with the details! But I did remember taking a picture to show you my progress previously. So I got out the picture and all the needles in my project bag, and compared them! It actually worked!!! So then I started picking up the stitches...
