The Worst

Why is it that we always get sick at the worst times?  As soon as school was out and summer started, I got sick!  I’ve had this horrible sinus-head-cold-thing for the past week, and am just now starting to feel up to doing anything.  Too make matters worse, my 2 year old got pinkeye and our dog had surgery.  It’s been a fun summer so far!  But, I’m feeling better and I recently found my favorite crochet hook that had been lost…so I’m ready to start making stuff again.  Even better, I’m ready to make baby stuff.  No, not for me, for a friend =)  So if you know of any good patterns out there, let me know!

I’m Back!

Wow, I was gone much longer than I thought I would be! My family is now moved and mostly unpacked! The house we moved to is much larger than our old one, which means I get a room for all my crafting stuff =) I now have all my yarn and crochet hooks accessible, and I’m ready to start crocheting again! What am I going to make you ask? Washcloths! I seem to have lost several during the move and need to replace them. Fortunately those don’t take to long so I’ll be able to whip up a several in the next day or two and then it’s back to making fun stuff!
Speaking of fun stuff, as I mentioned before, my one year anniversary was this month. Keep an eye out for a contest soon!

Happy Anniversary!

I realized last night, that I’ve been blogging and making patterns for a year!  Crazy!  Sadly I missed my “blogiversary” which was April 23 (my first post).  However, May of last year was when I published my first pattern.  I think I may have to celebrate somehow =)  Keep an eye out for something fun in the next couple of weeks!
