these are a few of my favorite things....

imagine 'sound of music' playing in the background...

If I'm going to collect anything let it not be garbage

or clothing or junk mail but let it be that which 

enhances my life and allows me to be creative...

2nd attempt!

my second attempt at making a hat!
it turned out so perfectly i'm convinced i cannot duplicate it.
it was a fluke.
i stayed up till midnight trying to make another.
maybe i'm on a knitting block.

you should try!
it's super easy. just google video anything you want to learn.

i hand sewed the flower too out of lace and tulle.



i'm not posting things i make to brag but rather, hopefully,
to inspire you to work with your hands and make something.
to challenge you.
so go! be challenged and learn something new!

first attempt!

my first attempt at knitting a hat.
i interrupted her show...

i am working on smaller baby hats with 2 different stitches.
the knit stitch and the purl stitch.

learned here.


wouldn't this make an excellent gift?
