I just finished assembling our invitations- as much as possible for now. I still need to number each response card according to the guest list to help eliminate any RSVP confusion and the envelopes will be addressed next week; then I can begin stuffing them. I plan on using a wax seal which I’ve already [...]
It has been brought to my attention that I still have a poor little blog out there on the interwebs, sorely in need of an update. I must admit I’ll be sad to see my gramp’s cute squishy face no longer staring back at me…
Unfortunately I really haven’t been up to many interesting things that [...]
I finished the Skye Tweed Vest before Christmas… I really did. But in keeping with history I washed it the night before, thinking all would be well, only to pull it out of the washer and see a HOLE! Gahh! Luckily it wasn’t too tragic and I was able to fix it before giving it [...]
Part 1 can be found here.
It’s time for an update and coincidentally I actually have progress to share on my Grandpa’s vest. Imagine that…
This is the back panel. I bound off the shoulders but am not 100 percent sure I did it correctly so I left the balls attached. I figure I’ll beg for some [...]
This evening we went out to eat for my brother’s girlfriend’s twenty-first birthday and now that I’ve officially handed off the goods I can share some pictures…
This lady is based off of Genevieve in the Stupid Sock Creature book I got for Christmas last year (or the year before??)… When she leafed through it Heather [...]
The chart for my Skye Tweed pattern has two different sections with more rows, which means I’m at different rows for different cables and can’t use a straight ruler to keep my place. As a solution I figured I have a metallic red clipboard at work that I thought I could use as a chart [...]
Since I know there is a better chance I may spontaneously levitate before my Grandpa finds this post- no, make that before he even learns how to open an internet browser- I think it’s safe for me to share pictures of any gifts for him. As long as no one else shows him, things are [...]
Brea Bag by Norah Gaughan
Berroco Ultra Alpaca from Cynthia’s in Mackinaw City, MI
Handle from M&J Trimmings
Fabric- who knows, I got it from a garage sale!
Can you guess who this sweet little bag is for? That’s right, myself. At least it was supposed to be. It’s not big enough for me to use as a purse [...]
Over a year ago I posted a link I found through haha.nu on how to make maple roses and then lazily dreamed of making them ever since. Somehow today I managed to squeeze a little creativity out of my schedule, which was unfortunately booked solid with lazing on the couch & napping. I’m really pleased [...]
Now that I’ve officially gifted these- although we won’t talk about how long ago that was- I can finally share some pictures of the Red Thread socks by Cookie A. I chose this particular pattern for a few reasons, namely it’s badass but also because it has meaning and supports a cool not-for-profit organization.
The [...]
