I don’t want to brag or anything, but we’re about a week or so away from this: I love this time of year. I never get tired of watching the leaves turn all these different colors. And the aspens! They’re my favorite. This time of year is also so much fun with kids. We read […]
A Fun Way to Display Kids Artwork
So with school starting up again, we’re faced with the never-ending dilemma. What on earth do we do with all the projects and papers they bring home? How do you decide which of your kids’ projects to keep? I tend to favor the ones where I can see my kids’ creativity. Some projects come home […]
Make these campfire Girl Scout swaps for your next event
The danger of doing anything with older kids is that you’re automatically volunteered to do the same things with their younger siblings. It is for this reason that I find myself the leader of both my older daughter’s Cadette Girl Scout troop, and my younger daughter’s Daisy troop. I don’t mind, actually. I find it’s […]
Knitting Journals to Keep Track of All Your Projects
About a year ago, I started keeping a reading journal. I’m in a book club, and I like talking about books with my mom and my friends and I found myself quite often saying things like “I just read this great book. I remember thinking you would really like it. It’s about this woman who…” […]
How to Work a Long Tail Cast On (Continental Cast On)

Earlier this week, I asked a question in our newsletter (do you get the newsletter? You can sign up to get it at the bottom of this post or over to the right there ->) After spending a week in Hawaii, I was wondering – what do people in warmer climates knit? It’s currently snowing […]
Make this easy knitting pattern – Mock Cable Baby Blanket
I love the look of cable knits. They make such gorgeous hats and sweaters. I think cable knitting scares a lot of people, but it’s one of those things you just have to sit down and…do…and you realize after you try it once or twice that the concept is really pretty simple. It is not, however, […]
Some of My Favorite Knitting Supplies
I’m a sucker for fun knitting supplies. Do you know what I mean? Those knitting supplies that aren’t necessarily essential, but are so cute and so much fun and that just make you happy. Things like cute stitch markers for knitting. Or embroidery scissors shaped like a stork (the scissors are the beak!! Do you […]
12 Ways to Organize the Yarn Stash
Are you January-ing like I am? Resolving to eat some actual green, leafy things and to get outside and walk or run or something instead of stying huddled up inside where it’s warm? And perhaps even planning to organize your yarn stash? No? Is that going too far? I love to look at ideas for organizing […]
