What have I been up to? Lots and lots. I've been finishing up a few last minute gifts for friends and family. Many of them I started ages ago and never got the time to complete when the urgency for pre-winter garden prep, goat breeding, and all the other homestead things came up.

I'm not so patiently awaiting my order of Merino super wash wool yarn and knitting needles from Lion Brand Yarns. I've never knitted before, but my sister in law convinced me over Thanksgiving that I should definitely try it. So, I decided to take on socks as my first project. Does this contradict everything that … Continue reading Sock Practice
My toddlers love to play in my fiber crafting bag... I've even gone so far as to "hide" it under a side table in a difficult to reach area in our living room. No dice-- they still managed to get to it and rummage my blunt tipped needle and abandon it to the black abyss … Continue reading Crochet Hack
