I Think I'm Back

I took a long hiatus from all things etsy and ravelry related while I was getting through the last miserable bits of my pregnancy and the first part of being a new mom. My etsy shop will still be closed for a while because what I was doing before was incredibly time consuming. I just don’t have the time to be reclaiming enough yarn fast enough to keep my shop stocked. I have some ideas of what I want to do next though. There are several things I can do with the wool sweaters I have that don’t require so much work. Two of my most appealing ideas so far are felting them and sewing them into soakers (I’m super into cloth diapering now lol) or I can unravel the sweaters to make dryer balls. Or I could do both!

Another possibility is to focus more on pattern design. I have one pattern for sale on ravelry that I haven’t bothered with selling on etsy. If I do that then I can just avoid etsy all together because, quite honestly, I would rather give my money to ravelry. The ravelry folks are amazing and awesome.

What I'm Working On
I am actually knitting again! Finally. I had no time and really no inspiration for way too long. I’m currently working on a granny square blanket using some a variety of acrylic yarn. I’m alternating rounds of pinks and purples with white inspired by this blanket. I’m planning on making it about a 4-5 foot square.

I’m also working on a pair of socks for Chris. I bought some Cherry Tree Hill yarn in the rasta man colorway specifically to make socks for him. I made the toes black and I may do black heels as well depending on what kind of heel I choose. I’m doing them toe up and using 00 needles. I’m only a few inches in but I love how the yarn is striping so far.


I have several projects on the back burner including 2 other blankets that were supposed to be for my baby and my friend’s baby. They will now hopefully be gifts for their first birthdays but no promises!

And a gratuitous cute baby picture!

    I work, take care of my babies, read, and maybe sometimes knit.
