Its my Birthday today :)
Hello fellow yarn and craft lovers. Guess what today is my Birthday!! I finally got the podcast finished and ready to post. Yesterday I took my parents and boys to Mount Cheaha, which is the highest point in Alabama. I am sad to say many leaves were not turned but dead. There was some color and it was a great time. Stick around at the end of the video to see some photos of our trip. Hope you enjoy the show.

Modified Moss Cowl
The holidays are approaching us and fast. I love friends and family but I am going to be honest I do not want to spend forever knitting or crafting for them.

The color I used is called 6715 Polar Night. The yarn is 50% Wool, 40% Acrylic and 10% Alpaca and retails for about $20. The yarn is really nice. I started off doing the Marian that can be found on Ravelry. But got…

The world of Knitting Needles and the Ones I Love
Updates to post in Red You can never judge a needle buy its packaging or its name. I am going to go ahead and admit here I am a knitting needle addict. The excitement of a new needle bring so much joy. I know though that some steer clear of buying needles because they are just not sure about certain ones.

I tend to use smaller sized needles than larger ones so this way…

Goals and Dreams for 2016
Can you believe January is here? The fact that I am writing this and it is January 23rd blows my mind even more. This year had brought some interesting days for me. So far I have had my first really bad ear infection and then yesterday I feel off going down the steps of my porch. I feel hard and bruised several parts of my body. As I write this I am sitting with a heating pad on my neck and shoulders because I am so sore. However, despite the issues I have had there is always one thing I can turn to beside my family and faith. I love…

December Wrap Up

This blog has grown since last year. I am even planning new things for the…

This post was supposed to go up the first week of October. I am not sure what I did lol. So here it is.. Hey Guys and Happy Fall! It is October and my Birthday is a few days away. I have been knitting when I can but lately life has been in full swing. We have recently become a #cubscout family and I have become a Den Leader. In my last post I shared a little of my Knit Santa’s. I thought I would do a little post about them and other “Holiday” knits I have planned. The Santa pattern can be found in an old Leisure Arts Magazine…
