It's CROCHET SEASON!

And I'm ready and waiting for your orders. 

Here are some of the things I have been working on lately - and I am always finding new patterns - so if you want something specific - just email me and ask.

I disabled my etsy shop as I wasn't getting any orders - so that's no longer active - but you can email me if you are looking something for your loved ones for the holidays.

I want to get a head start so I'm not swamped with a bunch of stuff at the end of the year - so if there is something you want - let me know and I can get started for you.

Lots of colors already in stock - and TONS more available only a short drive away - so customize away:)

Taking Orders for Christmas!!

So, I am getting ready to participate in a craft fair locally and have been making play food and hats like crazy to have enough stuff to show/sell. What I have realized is that I prefer making things for specific people more than just randomly picking things to make for selling.

I am however, excited to do the craft fair and in preparation, made up business cards so that people could come here and place orders with me directly.

So, here I am.

I will post pictures of things I have recently made but I also have a TON of patterns that I am dying to try out - so if you don't see something you like, shoot me an email and we can figure out what you want and what I can make you.

Happy Browsing!

Back with a vengeance!

I have been crafting like crazy since I got pregnant with my second child. He is now 6 months old and I am finding that there is an increased demand for nice, hand made items at affordable prices. So I have decided to dust this site off a bit and start posting pics of my latest projects. I will also be updating an Etsy shop as well and putting a link to it here.

I have evolved over the past year and have gotten very good at crochet and knitting so I can pretty much do anything as long as I have a pattern.

For now, I'm sticking to hats, scarves, and my new favorite - play food for kids... But if you are looking for something else let me know and I'll see what I can do!

I hope you like what you see!

Halloween and more

I've been busy since "the sweater"

I made 3 Halloween Costumes in honor of Katie's favorite Sesame Street characters.
2 sweaters for a friends daughter, I'm working on a sweater for that friend and I did this diaper cake for an old friends baby shower!

Next up are some Christmas Presents and baby stuff - I just can't stop!
Happy reading... sorry I haven't posted much lately.. I've been very sick with a cold and this pregnancy has me WIPED out - but I will try to find cool stuff to post soon!

It's FINISHED

And I'm exhausted and have decided to take a break from knitting for awhile as I estimate this sweater took probably 100 hours of my life - It's beautiful and I'm sure it will look great on Morganne, but I'm tired and remember again why I like Crochet better. It's faster and WAY less stressful!
Now, on to some scrapbooking as I am VERY behind and need to put together some books before I have baby #2 so that I'm not uber behind!!!!

Princess Sweater Update

My life has become this sweater. Not necessarily in a bad way... it just has. It's fun to work on it -it's just that it is such a large project that it is daunting so it feels like I NEED to be knitting every spare moment to make sure I finish it.
It's WAY easier than I thought it would be when I first started reading the pattern. The skirt is completed and I have gathered the stitches at the waist and am now going to be doing the actual difficult part which involves double pointed needles and knitting in the round. (neither of which I have done yet)

But, I'm ready for it! And excited to see what it comes out like. The yarn has been discontinued (as is usual when I start any project) and you literally cannot get it anywhere... so let's hope the 4 skeins I have left is enough to finish the top! If not... I will have to get craftier than I have ever been... Please keep your fingers crossed for me!

Thanks for listening.


My bitch for the day is......... I absolutely hate when people park in two spaces. I mean... really? Your car is so precious that you need to take 2 spaces so that no one touches it... then maybe you should leave it at home and take public transportation and just look at it instead of drive it. I find it ridiculously obnoxious!!!!

Thank you for reading!!
