I’ve stumbled on so many great inspiration and discoveries this month that I want to share.
May has absolutely flown by, in a complete blur in fact! This month I published my first pot hanger knitting pattern on Ravelry, and let’s just say that things are starting to be very, very real!
I’m in full planning mode and I’m currently knee deep in planning other amazing patterns!
I love to planning and so I find the process really enjoyable… BUT it’s a lot of work: search, swatches, samples,… etc 🙂
Making
Once again another crafty month has gone by, although I’ve been working on a lot of crafts for the home that I haven’t yet shared. Coming soon!
In the meantime, make this easy striped sweater, or dare with the octopus.
Nesting
I’m just finishing to repot plants for the house, I’ve added a lot of green and I couldn’t be more excited! In case you were wondering, there are a lot of pot hangers!
But I’m falling in LOVE this moon planter!
Crochet isn’t my fav, but this banana pillow is so cute!
Reading
Show Your Work!
Such a fantastic book for creatively minded people!
The basic idea is to put yourself out there even if you (or your work) is a work in progress. “It’s Not Who You Are, It’s Who You Want To Be.”
It’s the kind of book that you can pick up and set down over and over again.
Cool Knitting for Kids
A good book for aspiring knitters, with lots of photos. In terms of stitches it only demonstrates casting on, knit stitch, and binding off; and 3 project ideas, all derived from a knitted rectangle. However, dying with kool-aid and felting are very fun projects for kids.
Going
In December 2017 my family was in La Jolla visiting San Diego and planned on eating tacos, so we came across the street to this fish place…and it was worth it! This place is cool in that it has a combo look and feel of a fresh seafood market and a restaurant.
I wanna go here (and make some things).
