I recently became obsessed with knitting leg warmers. It started with knitting a pair for Stephanie for Christmas, and then I kept making more.
I used this pattern for Electra Leg Warmers that I found on Ravelry. I cast on 40 stitches for myself and Steph, and if I [...]
It’s been pretty cold the last few days. I didn’t have any coverage for my ears and I’ve been rocking the old lady shawl [ ie. I took an adorable cowl and figure-eighted it so it acted like a hood too ].
I decided to whip up this bad boy. It’s pretty warm. Not to [...]
Ke$ha would have been proud of these nails.
I did this over New Year’s after seeing a tutorial on Pinterest.
You can use any color for a base, I chose a glitter color by OPI that coordinated with the glitter I was planning on putting on the tips. The [...]

Mark’s brother-in-law likes MJ probably as much if not more … okay … who am I kidding? Nobody could like MJ more than me.

Last week I posted about the apron I made Emee for Christmas.
Here is the apron in action. Mom and Em were making French toast and Emee asked to wear her new apron.
So cute! I’m glad she liked it. She was so blinded by Legos (which, for [...]
I’ve been asked by a few people to provide a tutorial for this lovely scarf I made as a commission by Mark for his mom for Christmas. Which, by the way, I might have to make a few more of because they are really cute. You can snap all 3 snaps, leave some open, mismatch [...]
My mom requested that I make an apron for my niece. I found this really basic tutorial and adjusted it to make it reversible and to fit my niece.
I like how it turned out, especially now that I walked away from it for a while. There are a few mistakes, but she’s 3, [...]
The winner of the zippy pouch is …
Heather!
… but she didn’t leave her e-mail address or at least disqus isn’t giving it to me. I’m going to dig through my e-mails and see if the notification e-mail gave me her e-mail. FOUND IT! I just e-mailed [...]
