Another year behind us…
It’s been a busy one. So many projects using a wide variety of media. These are a few of my favorites.
Have a happy and safe New Year! Best to you in 2015.
I have a love/hate relationship with Pinterest. So often I see something that I fall in love with and want to create for myself and the link either goes now where or just to the photo of the thing I was enamored with in the first place even if it clearly stated that it was a tutorial. This is where the experimentation takes over. I see my goal…now I need to figure out how to get there.
I’m continuing to experiment with different stitches and patterns on my knifty knitter loom. I saw a really cool dish scrubbie on Pinterest but the link did no good. After studying the photo a bit I came up with my version.
I honestly don’t know the terminology for all the stitches…I am a visual learner.
If you are here actually looking for the pattern I will sum up what I did in “Halle speak” and hopefully it will make sense. 🙂
Using 2 skeins, cast on all 24 pegs continuing the circle as if making a hat. Knit 20 rows. Bind off. Close both ends of tube and flatten. I sent the strings from one side through to the other and tied them off so it would stay flattened.
So maybe after all my complaining…I’m guilt as well. I have no step by step directions. Good luck!
Good morning…It’s Tuesday already…time for another edition of T stands for Tuesday hosted by Elizabeth.
Once again I have been busy, busy. For starters…I made soap again last week.

I used a new recipe so we’ll see how it turns out in a month.

The days seem to be taken up with creating more Holiday inventory. I have lots of work-in-progress. I get tired of working on the same thing over and over again so I switch off often. I think that’s part of my craft ADD self diagnosis.
There are always more cards to make. I’m obsessed. I love doing these mini collages.
This morning I met a friend for a walk at the arboretum. It was a bit chilly, so I brought my mittens just in case. I hate having cold hands.
My other new obsession is my fitbit.
I’m working really hard to get my steps in each day. It’s nice to be just over 2000 from my goal by 9am. It’s paying off according to the scale.
I’m going to help out my mom in a bit then do some more crafting. What are you doing today?
