    You read that right, it’s a mystery project!

  • Another project!

    Another project!

    I just bought some sweet knitting needles from a friend and I couldn’t wait to start using them. Nevermind the fact that I have two other knitted projects going on right now, I have new needles calling! As you can see from the picture above, I started up a shawl with them. Goodbye reason and…

    Hmm, I wonder

    Well, I started on the second triangle of my wingspan mini shawl. I’m not sure I even did it right but I followed the directions and now have this weird offshoot part. Hopefully I have done it right and it will all turn out. I’m glad that it is an easy to work with yarn,…

  • All tied up

    Recently I have really gotten back into crochet and started to more seriously learn knitting. My mom first taught me how to crochet when I was probably around 10 years old, maybe a few years younger than that even. Why did I want to learn? Her and my grandma made things and I thought it…
