Holidays have this tendency to sneak up on me, well some do at least. Over the weekend I was hanging out, crocheting, and relaxing and I started seeing pattern round-ups on FB and Pinterest for Valentine’s Day patterns. It took me all of two seconds to realize, although I totally knew it, Valentine’s Day is …
Ah! Another week of winter. Or at least that’s what the weather is doing here where I live. The cold on my ears has motivated me to reach for some bulky yarn again and make a nice, cozy hat. I really wanted to make a Becca Hat to go with the Becca Scarf I post …
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. …

Ah! Those who celebrate or sell their crafts I’m sure you know just how I feel, because the holiday season is fully upon us and I hope you’re all prepared. I know that I started months ago, getting the gifts for my relatives together. See, I’m one of those people who gets so behind that …
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 …
OnSunday, after a bit of shopping, I was sitting around, letting my wrist rest, and then I realized I hadn’t gotten a pattern ready for Tuesday! Oh, no!
