Last week I was cooking and pulled a pan of rice out and set it on a hot pad. This is an old hot pat, made from lovely cotton yarn, but old and apparently gross. When I picked up the pan, the hot pad left ick all over the counter and I was irritated. So …
I love coffee! And that’s probably already been pretty clear from the last year of posts here on the blog, lots of comments about it and also mug cozies. So, with that idea in mind, I decided to have some fun with this week’s mug cozy, it’s all about coffee! Also, I’m having fun with …
A little bit about me, I love getting stuff in the mail! That might be why I love ordering make-up and geeky boxes… dunno about that. But a couple of weeks back I got a bag, as many did, of Red Heart Yarn’s Scrubby and Scrubby Sparkle in the mail. It was so neat and …
Good morning… or at least it’s morning here in my house. It’s been a long weekend. My husband and I decided to use the long weekend, Monday was the Fourth of July in the USA if you’re visiting from another country, and finally do a kitchen DIY that we’ve been eyeballing for a while. I …
Hi again! How’s your Tuesday going? Oh, me? Just the same. 😀 So for this week’s design I had two ideas, the next one you’ll see next week, but today’s is a mug cozy that goes a bit patriotic if you’re in the US (hence the title of the post). The fourth is next week …
Disclaimer: no sheep were drinking during the creation of this pattern. 😀So… I was looking through Instagram the other day and saw the most adorable hat, it had sheep on it! And my first thought was, “yeah, I need to make something with sheep,” and so I set out to make this pattern. So, I …
Hello! How are you doin’ this week? I’m a bit sick, fillin’ stuffy and pressure filled and it’s icky. It’s got me movin’ a bit slower, I slept in today and so now I’m trying to get caught up on work. Being sick is awful. So, this week’s pattern is Springy or Easter themed, I …
Hello March! It’s another week and another month in 2016. Because it is March, I’ve got another St. Pat’s Day pattern for you, this one is cute enough you could totally leave it out all year long. And if you’re like me, you probably will. I have the Candy Corn bag sitting on my kitchen …
Confession time, I have so much yarn. Ok, that’s not a very good confession, given my blog’s theme, but I really do have so much yarn and lately I’ve noticed, much of it is in small miscellaneous balls. It’s not a bad thing, I make patterns that feature color changes that you could use partial skeins …
It finally happened. I thought I felt it coming-on on Sunday, Monday I felt icky and went to bed with some NyQuil and today I woke up with it. Yup, I’m sick. I felt like there was a chance I was going to be sick a couple of weeks ago but I wasn’t sure and …
