I have become a crocheted ice skate addict. That’s right, the joy of taking simple paper clips, a few yards of yummy yarn and a crochet hook has caputured my imagination and offered a great distraction through the holiday time off… For some reason my original post ended up being blank, so here is the [...]

Hookalicious! Peppermint Popcorn Square!!
This year I have promised to be on top of the holidays! It’s been YEARS since I wasn’t in a mad scramble to get my projects done. In fact it’s been years since I wasn’t crocheting or weaving in ends on a gift in the car as we drove to a family gathering. NOT THIS [...]
Crochet and Jazz & Day 28
I love good Jazz. Tonight hubster and I are going to Seattle to meet up with some family at Jazz Alley. We’re going to be listening to a really awesome latin fusion band, and hopefully have a fabulous dinner as well. I’m taking my yarn and hooks with me. Music inspires, and I want to [...]

Time’s not on my side… Day 18
Well, I guess I’m not as lucky as the Rolling Stones, because these days I feel like time is decidedly not on my side. The days are slipping by faster and faster, from my kids growin gup at light speed pace to my schedule being filled as fast as I clear it! I know I’m [...]
Summer Crochet Plans and CLF Birthday CAL Day 14
For many crochet is a winter past time, for fanatics like me there isn’t a season that goes by without hook, yarn and or thread in my hot little hands. Summer projects can include things for the next season, or even gifts for the winter holidays, if I’m that organized (most years I am not!). [...]
