Hook Clutch
I’ve been carrying more and more hooks around and my bag and therefore losing them all over the place, travesty!… what to do? A clutch was definitely in order. A necessity for any hooking person.
Now this is for the hookers, but next week I have something in the works for the ones with poky sticks. So this is kind of a two parter just to give you a heads up.

Sweater Mouse

I will add the link in the original post as well. But I just wanted to let you know that I finished correcting the Honey Bunny pattern. Most of the errors were more along the lines of “this would be better phased like this,” but some were just dead wrong […]

Lacy Knit Wristlet
Ah using up little bits of yarn and little buttons makes me so happy. This week’s pattern uses 1/2 ounce of fingering weight yarn. And 2 to 4 buttons. It knits up pretty fast, and since it’s so small, blocks fast too! Definitely wouldn’t hurt to add some beads in […]

Summer Knit Head Wrap
