One of the reasons I liked my crochet friendship bracelets so much was because of the fact that they were adjustable. I have small wrists and I always find it awkward to wear large bangles. I guess I could look for small bangles, but I still need to get my hand...
I've been spending a lot of time trying to clean up my craft room lately (starting with my craft desk and card catalog), getting it ready for a room tour sometime in the next few weeks, and there's just so much to do! Still, when Tara from Suburble showed me a link...
It's #MyFavoriteBlogger theme post time! As usual, here's the dilly...o. (Do people still say that, or did I just date myself badly?) I'll show off my WINTER creation, and then you get to head over to see all the other winter themed projects crafted by my favorite...
I don't know about you, but I get a lot of inspiration while wandering through Pinterest, and when I saw these crocheted stars (while you're there, consider following me on Pinterest!), I knew I wanted some. But there was no pattern at the end of that rainbow, so I...
I have a little crochet tutorial today, and it is ohhh so useful. Basically, once you know this, you won't go back to the old ways. You know how when you end a round of crochet, you get that bumpy seam that looks like a bad scar? It pretty much screams "hey! This...

It's theme month time with #MyFavoriteBloggers! This month, we're bringing you a collection of homemade Gifts Under $20, just in time for the holidays. "Just in time" is a good thing too, since this is quite the group and you're going to need some time to make all...
In my revamped card catalog, I have several drawers dedicated to holding cotton yarn in a rainbow of colors. I used to hate the cotton yarn and thought it was really difficult to work with because it didn't slip and slide like acrylic yarn did, but then, it kinda grew...
Ugh, it's almost winter. The leaves are turning and I'll be staring at nekkid trees for the next 6 months. I know there's lots of good things to be had in the wintertime, but man, it's just so dreary sometimes! Ok, focus on the positive! Let's see...hot tea, hot...
Living in the New York/New England area, we get some AMAZING colors come the fall season - some of my favorite outings are to head out to the river and look across to the other bank and see the trees that are seriously just blazing with golds and reds and oranges....
