I briefly considered rounding up my projects from 2013 into a regular blog post. The thing is, many of my favourite projects are yet unblogged, as awful as that is, because I never got or made an opportunity to take photos I felt justified them. Instead I opted to create a quick round up video… Continue reading 2013 DIY Roundup Video
So Santa (aka the mailman) brought me a Sharp Crochet Hook for Christmas. Let me say, as soon as I saw the idea, I was smitten. I pinned it immediately, and then when Santa (aka Google Chrome) asked me what I wanted for Christmas, this inexpensive little hook was in the mail in no time… Continue reading Re-New Recieving Blanket – Sharp Crochet Hook
Isn’t this headband just adorable? If you don’t think so, there’s probably something wrong with you; you might want to get that looked at. For those of us in good health, this sweet little number is by Ummashin’s Goodies. I’ve featured her before, like a year ago or something, because I stumbled on her etsy… Continue reading Lovely headband is lovely
I did two things in one video in a desperate and terribly lame attempt to pretend like I haven’t totally ignored this series for weeks. Shazam, look over there, is that a bunny? No? Oh. Jazz hands! And a moment of suspense… will I say anything weird? Just kidding, that’s not suspenseful at all, we’d… Continue reading Crochet Bootcamp Part 3 : DC and HDC
Today we have the single crochet stich, referred to in patterns as sc. Between ch and sc stitch, you actually have enough to make any basic item! (Those are the stitches my Oma taught me, and I made items using just them for years and years!) With just these stitches, you can make a scarf,… Continue reading Crochet Bootcamp Part 2 – sc
Yay, a cute name! And button, button, who wants a button?! I am groaning inwardly at the fact that I’m going to generate some code for that button in a moment in case anyone feels like linking up. The things you do for love. I am quite capable but, like the spreadsheets I was coding… Continue reading Crochet Bootcamp Part 1–knotting and ch stitch
First of all, I bet you $5 that I say ‘blathering idiot’ more times in this video than you have all week. Don’t forget, I do accept paypal. <img src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/_YPqw-U1GIs4/TayZcvFwDQI/AAAAAAAACkA/nI0Gc0Y1-94/video3a9a13a85717%5B8%5D.jpg?imgmax=800" style="border-style: none" galleryimg="no" onload="var downlevelDiv = document.getElementById('add7c436-c1b2-452b-afa1-9bb8f0a966e4'); downlevelDiv.innerHTML = " http://www.youtube.com/v/TupsH_bpDVo?hl=en&hd=1“;” alt=””> Note: I now have a cutesy name.

Welcome to another edition of…. FRIDAY FAVOURITES! (In my head that is said in a pleasing and incredibly enthusiastic male voice. ) -How cool is this, two beds in a closet! I love how creative some people can be with small spaces. By local standards, our around-1000-square-foot home is about average, but I know that… Continue reading Friday Favourites
I have decided that although we’re a day short, I am going to jump the gun and decide I survived The First Week. It was a little touch-and-go for a minute there… Olivia had some problems feeding and I didn’t realize it at first, it looked like she had a perfect latch but her mouth… Continue reading Olivia – 6 days
Nicole was getting a bit jealous of the baby crocheting I’ve been doing, so I let her pick out a yarn and a pattern to whip her up a hat. We wound up with Bernat Cottontots in Blue Berry, and the Best Little Girl Cloche from Aesthetic Nest. I’m not sure if the pattern is… Continue reading Best Little Girl Cloche
