While flipping through The Big Ass Book of Home Decor a couple weeks ago, I came across a project like this – yarn-wrapped twig arrangement. I felt like I’d seen similar projects online too, like it wasn’t the first time I’d seen a branch wrapped in yarn, but now I can’t find anything in blog-landContinue reading “Make a scrap-yarn-wrapped branch decoration!”

Flattr: about to change the world, if we help make it happen!
I want to take a minute to tell you about something I think is completely awesome and could really change the way our community and the whole internet works. The concept can be hard to grasp if you’ve never heard of anything like it, so I’m going to explain it as it relates to you,Continue reading “Flattr: about to change the world, if we help make it happen!”
May 17th – 26th photos
Photo time! The last week and a half was filled with a little gardening, a ton of awful weather, some good food, and some knit designing! Sadly, I forgot to take a photo on the 16th, so starting with last Monday… 17th + 18th – I harvested a bunch of herbs that were ready, andContinue reading “May 17th – 26th photos”
Future club 2.0 and May leethal quick knits club!
I’m so excited to tell you about my future leethal quick knits club plans! I’ve been brainstorming about it and planning out all the details for the last couple of weeks, and I’m really looking forward to making the switch, which will happen after I’ve completed 1 full year of the current club. Not sureContinue reading “Future club 2.0 and May leethal quick knits club!”
Switch Plates! And how to make one from an old record cover!
My club mail out day was Tuesday, and, like I do every month, I put the 2 patterns up on ravelry and flickr after sending out the pdf to the members. Normally, since the patterns aren’t available to the public, plus they are small trinkets that most knitters don’t seem to care much about, thisContinue reading “Switch Plates! And how to make one from an old record cover!”
May 9th – 15th photos
Wow this week is flying by! This post was meant to go up on Sunday when I started it, and now it’s Wednesday night, how did that happen?! A combination of club mail-out day, yard work obsession, and the last 2 days off with Pete spent house-stuff shopping to the point of exhaustion at HomeContinue reading “May 9th – 15th photos”
From Thrifty Finds to Crafty Lamp!
A couple of years ago I came upon a bag of granny squares at the Goodwill bins! Score! No two colorways alike, they were obviously handmade, the start to a project that was never finished: I washed them, then they sat there for 2 years, waiting waiting waiting for a project… and then I gotContinue reading “From Thrifty Finds to Crafty Lamp!”
May 1st – 8th photos
Now for this most recent week… settling into the new house, starting to unpack, and starting to get back into normal life routines… 1st + 2nd – We’re still excited to have our own washer+dryer, and watching the clothes in the front loader is fun! hehe we’re silly. Finally got back into a knitting projectContinue reading “May 1st – 8th photos”
April 21st – 30th photos
This was the week of total insanity – fun and extreme work – with my brother visiting, getting the keys to our house early, Bridgetown Comedy Festival, and the move! 21st + 23rd – Packed all day, dropped off a ton of stuff (almost literally, hah!) at Value Village, then picked up Matt and ChelseaContinue reading “April 21st – 30th photos”

It’s about time! Splitting these up into sections – this section goes from just after the April club was mailed out and my focus turned to full time moving-related work, up until the day before my brother got into town… 13th + 14th – Packing/moving errands day – boxes, tape, etc were purchased and seriousContinue reading “April 13th – 20th photos”
