Scarflette Crazyness

20 scarflettes for Bento




So I was loading up all of the 20 scarflettes I knitted for the Bento store, and all of the sudden my back went out. I was just bending down, and I was suddenly on the floor in tons of pain. So needless to say, I have gotten a little behind. So here are the new scarflettes I have made and loaded on Etsy. I ordered some new yarn, so I am so excited to make tons more scarflettes in all the new colors. Off to do my homework. :)

More Scarflettes, Flappers







MORE Scarflettes!!!! As I was looking at these pictures of the scarflettes worn as a headband and ear warmer, it reminded me so much of a Flapper style. Which I love, because I have been so interested in Flappers for a really long time. As my hair gets longer, it's growing into a Flapper hairstyle too, and I really love that.

Hope you're having a great weekend, it's super warm and sunny here! YAY :)

Scarflettes Scarflettes Scarflettes

The Simple Shrug I'm knitting


Green rain boots from Target, yippy!!!






The spiral scarflettes that I designed seem to be the most popular style that I've created so far, so I am cranking them out! They are really fun to make too. I just ordered a ton of new yarn, in lots of new colors that I haven't used before, so I can't wait to start on that! It's snowing here, huge fluffy flakes, so I am cozying up with the dog and knitting and knitting and knitting.

I have been dreaming of a pair of green rain boots for awhile now, and I finally bought some HERE at Target online.

I have also been trying to knit my own shrug off of a pattern I found on some yarn I bought. HERE is the pattern. So far so good, except my gauge is a little off, so it's going to be a little bigger than I expected, but I think it will still be cute. I'll post some pictures when I'm done. Have a great day!

Fall Knits






Just a few new scarflettes that I've added to Etsy, inspired by all of the fall colors. It doesn't really feel like fall here anymore, seeing that it's snowing right now!!! It's tooo early for that, I am not ready for it. But oh well, I'll just cozy up by the fire and knit and knit and knit. Hope you have a cozy evening.

Samhain Inspiration








Just a little Samhain/ Halloween inspiration! And a new scarflette The Sunshine Spiral Scarflette.

Before reading Starhawk's essay, listen to the chant sung by Starhawk and her Reclaiming friends:
A year of beauty. A year of plenty.
A year of planting. A year of harvest.
A year of forests. A year of healing.
A year of vision. A year of passion.
A year of rebirth.

This year may we renew the earth.
This year may we renew the earth.

Let it begin with each step we take.
And let it begin with each change we make.
And let it begin with each chain we break.
And let it begin every time we awake.

--Chant from the
Reclaiming Samhain Celebration

Check out the Essay HERE

And here's another great link regarding the origins of Halloween/Samhain here from Starhawk as well. Have a cozy fall day.


Cali and Leg Warmers






California was fun and sunny. We had perfect weather while we were there. It was sunny and the same temperature throughout the day. Which is strange for us Coloradoans, where the weather can be warm and sunny one minute and the next it could be snowing.

Here are some new Leg warmers I just added to Etsy called The Paige Leg Warmers. And the arm warmers are called The Maya Arm Warmers. They are a great accessory for Fall, when you just need an added layer to keep warm.
Have a happy weekend!
