Lumaze 2019
My parents were able to come out for Thanksgiving this year and we all thought it’d be fun to do some holiday related activities. Lumaze kept showing up in my Instagram ads so I decided to check into it.
Stitch Fix #32 - November 2019
I have a very busy period at work from about mid-October to mid-January and I did what I usually do - schedule a fix as a pick me up during what can be a stressful time. Stylist Sarah delivered a collection of awesome items. Read on to see what she sent!
Stitch Fix #31 - September 2019
As I’ve said in the past, I’ve cut back on Stitch Fixes because I just don’t need much right now. That doesn’t mean I’ve stopped enjoying them, though! For this fix, I asked stylist Sarah for pieces to transition to fall (aka layering pieces). Read on to see what she sent!
Donkicorn!
Apparently my crochet life has a unicorn theme going on - but this time it’s with a twist. My most recent creation is a donkey unicorn aka donkicorn. It’s kind of a joke for my team at work since we’re currently evaluating wants and needs for a tool that needs to be replaced. That project somehow acquired the code name Project Data Donkey and that morphed into donkicorn. Me being me, I decided we needed an actual donkicorn and got straight to work looking for a pattern on Ravelry to work one up.
A Unicorn for Paisley
Last Thanksgiving-ish my best friend from home asked for a crocheted unicorn for her daughter, Paisley. I had big plans of finding a cute pattern that I could work up quickly in order to get it shipped off to her for Christmas. Unfortunately, work/life/laziness got in the way. Random pieces of unicorn ended up sitting in a bin from just before Christmas up until I returned from our Maui trip and was feeling crafty again. Read on to see the finished product!
Chevron Friendship Bracelet
While in Maui, I saw a ton of people wearing friendship bracelets as anklets - a thing I used to do every summer as a kid/teenager. Needless to say, seeing these bracelets/anklets in Maui stirred up enough memories that I felt the need to get crafting.
