You Are Loved: Crochet Heart Pattern

February 8, 2016 by Julie 4 Comments

February is one of my favorite months. I can't help it. Between Valentine's Day and my birthday the house is always filled with sweets.

Each year I make hearts with little tags that say things like "You are loved", "Spread the love", etc. I even get the kids involved and have then help … [Read more...]

Finger Knit Mason Jar Cozies

January 15, 2016 by Julie 6 Comments

As much as I love traditional knitting, it's not generally a quick craft. I can still remember when I first saw/heard people talking about arm knitting. It seemed crazy. But then it seemed brilliant.
