Hello! How has your week been? My week has been... how should I say it... eventful. π¬ To start with, Bruno had a botfly under his skin! It was disgusting and so sad. 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. This boy has some reach with that neck! So we put him in some jammies. That kept him from licking, but then there was the concern of the jammies rubbing on it. LOOK WHAT WE ENDED UP DOING!!!! πππππππSausage was very concerned for him!ππππππ The outer cone was as big as his whole body! After the Bruno situation, my youngest 2 kids started school. Two different schools. That's always a fun, busy week. AND THEN, on the same day, my oldest kid broke their foot! It's been a whirlwind! Since Bruno is much more willing for me to share his personal life than my human children, I'll talk about him some more! π€£π€ͺ Bruno is my full-time knitting partner. He's darn good at it, too! In honor of him being back in business, I dug up a collection of photos of Bruno hard at work. Take a peek at the cuteness! Just for fun, each pic links to something related or semi-related to something in the pic. Please note in the second pic, sticker of Bruno on my coffee mug and Bruno on my lap. Two Brunos for the price of one! I also started getting all my craft supplies put away in my new studio this week. I am so excited to get in there and start making stuff!!! The first thing I unpacked was my yarn, obviously. I think I'll take stock of some of my WIPs and see what I want to finish and what I want to quit. I definitely want to finish my popcorn ceiling sweater now that it's almost cool enough to wear it! I tried to find an old email where I told you about my popcorn ceiling cardigan, but I can't find one! I'm knitting a white textured cardigan and I've crocheted glow-in-the-dark stars to attach to it! It's going to be so ME! As soon as I dig it out to finish, I'll send you some pics! Also, don't forget, I'm sending 50% off coupons to everyone who posts a project of one of my patterns on Ravelry. I'm checking regularly, so all you have to do is post the project. I've got you! I hope you knit a ton this weekend! I'm going to do my best! Talk to you next week! Thanks for being here! If you want moreβ¦ Browse my Etsy shopβ See all my patterns on Ravelryβ |

Hey there! How are you!?! Iβm 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 βtil you see what I did. π«£ When I took it out to finally finish, there were 3 sizes of needles in the project bag. And I, of all people, didnβt 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...
Hello, and happy Friday! I hope you've had a good week! I did finish my cat hat, but I havenβt added the ears yet. ππΌ The ears are actually my favorite part of this pattern! I feel so clever because the ears stand up on their own and don't flop over after wearing it all day. You can see in the photo, I'm also starting to knit myself a box full of scrunchies. π€£π€ͺ I've been wearing my hair in a high ponytail every day and alternating between two of my favorite scrunchies: one that matches my...
