Sheep to Shawl
I’m mainly writing this post to retrace my own steps in recently creating a shawl. I usually just say, “I enjoy knitting” or spinning without explaining much about my process.

Craft Ramble
In this post are some recent attempts at spinning, knitting, cross-stitch, and more. Creative endeavors galore. Most of the time I do them in the kitchen at home, but sometimes I take them with me on public transportation or bring them out at a cafe. Sorry to say, I am…

Darned Pink Socks
I repaired my favorite knit socks a few times because they are so cute and perfect but I’m giving up on them now. The design came from my brain, no pattern at all, they were a custom fit and I loved them. I knit them myself with much attention to…

I Survived Elbow Tendonitis
It was about 3 weeks after I got a Nintendo switch for my 41st birthday that I started having a really awful feeling in my elbow and the surrounding muscle area on my arm. It was such a reminder I am getting old! Since I also have long loved fiber…
