It has been a while since I’ve worked in my art journals. I was worried that my muse may have disappeared….but I found her.
I once again grabbed some scraps from around me to create this page. Some suede from a coat I cut up to make a book and some RenFest bags, tea stained lace curtain scrap
and some book page flowers I was experimenting with the other day.
I’m nearly done with this journal as well. I think maybe I can squeeze 3 perhaps 4 more pages out of it. I already have my next journal picked out….and an idea for another. I love the freedom art journaling affords. No theme. No boundaries. Just a place to express and experiment.

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!
