Hi and Happy Valentine’s Day!  So what does Valentine’s day mean to you????  That is the question for this giveaway.  What will you win you ask????  Well, the Baseball Cap and mouse pad shown above and you get one pattern of your choice from my patterns located on the second page of my blog.  All you need to do is post a comment here on this post saying what Valentine’s day means to you and you could be a winner.  Please make sure you leave me a way to contact you and on February 15th in the morning soon as I get online I will pick a winner with the help of the trusty random number generator!  Due to the cost of shipping this is USA only, sorry about that but I am not making enough on my pattern sales to ship world wide yet!

Announcing the Breaking Dawn Chunky Heels Hood!

Breaking Dawn Chunky Heels Hood

Is here!



add to cart
$3

This is a quick and easy cabled Hood that takes 1 skeins or 128 yards of chunky yarn, it will be a lovely addition to your winter outfits and will keep you warm and snugly. The neck band is knit flat; you then pick up the stitches for the top of the hood and knit using short rows, just the way you do a short row heel on socks. This is a wonderful way to learn how to do short row heels with larger needles and yarn!

Help me name this pattern to win a prize

Hi this is my next pattern and I need your help!  I can't come up with a name for it!  So I was thinking I could get you all involved in helping me and do a give away too!  Please post your ideas for a name and on January 25th I will go over all the comments and pick the one I like best!  So whats in it for me you ask???  How about one skein of Cascade 128 yarn in the color shown, (enough to make this hood) and the pattern!  I can't wait to see your ideas!  Also please make sure you leave me a way to contact you, we are having a problem with the last giveaway because I have no contact info on the winner and they have not contacted me back yet!

My first post!

Hi, and welcome to my blog. I tried this once before but I am trying again and hopefully I will do better this time. I am a spinner, I have a Heavenly Handspinning Fidelis wheel, which I LOVE!!! I also do drop spindling. I love to knit and do a lot of test knitting as well as knitting for myself and my family. I just ordered a weaving loom for myself for my birthday and I am hoping it will be here soon.

Here are a few of the things I have test knit in the last few weeks.
