You know what, I love holidays for crocheting. It makes designing just a little bit easier, because I get to make cute things and it’s fun and I don’t have to think TOO HARD on what to make. So, this week I’m making something that’s St. Pat’s Day themed. This design is a bit like …
I know, I know, Valentine’s Day was on Sunday… but you don’t really need a time of the year to wear a heart headband, do you? I’ve actually had this pattern 45% ready for a bit but the photos and details just didn’t get finished before Valentine’s came around. Better late than never, right? Don’t …

Hey, look! It’s already February. Of course you know it’s February, it just sometimes makes me stop and be surprised that time seems to just go by so fast. Here I am, again, with a fun Valentine’s Day pattern for you. I’ve been playing around with graphs and such, to make pictures and what not in …

So, last week I wrote up my Penny Penguin pattern and posted it. This was due to the fact that I had a bad wrist/hand situation and I wanted a fun and quick pattern to post. Well, the response was HUGE! I had tons of traffic, lots of shares on FB, and some Pinterest pins. …

Does anyone else feel a bit relieved that the holiday season is nearly completely over? Of course New Years is still coming up, but the rush for gift making is over in my house. It’s so nice to not have to work, I worked a lot last week and I’m rather tired, and just sit …
