The Lyra Legwarmers

The Golden Compass Movie

Lets all put on our Lyra Legwarmers and take a trip to Svalbard. Who's with me??? If you have no idea what I'm talking about, I'm referring to the movie The Golden Compass, which is great. I am currently reading the trilogy by Philip Pullman His Dark Materials.

The Golden Compass is the first book in the trilogy. If you haven't read it, check it out, it's really imaginative, and you'll feel like you're on a great adventure the whole time. I just posted The Lyra Legwarmers onto Etsy today. They are super warm and soft, and will be perfect for someone who loves cold weather adventure.

On a different note, I thought I would let everyone know that I am finishing up my Bachelors Degree online. I have 135 college credits already, but no Bachelors to show for it, just an Associates of Art Degree. So.... long story short, I am going to get my B.A. in Early Childhood Education. It should only take me one more year, and I'm super excited. So you might see a lot more Early Childhood links and info coming soon, but I am still going to continue with my knitting and crocheting. Here are a few great sites I found the other day regarding Early Childhood Education, parenting, etc. Great for parents and teachers alike.

The Rhiannon Shawl

This is The Rhiannon Shawl that I just loaded onto Etsy. The top picture is my shawl that I made for myself as a little treat. These shawls are so versatile. I love how many ways you can wear them. I like wearing mine wrapped around my neck when I get a little chilly, as you can see from the pictures.

Keep checking back, I made another shawl last night that I will be posting soon. Have a good one!

Leg Warmers

My first pair of Crocheted Legwarmers

Knitted Legwarmers

This is what I have been working on like a busy little bee. I love the crocheted legwarmers, and I'm really happy with how they turned out. I made them longer than my previously knitted ones, so they can scrunch down, and be pulled up all the way to the knee. I haven't put these on Etsy because, for one, it's still too warm, and because I might be selling them in a yoga studio in Denver and Boulder! But when the weather gets cooler, I will be putting something similar on Etsy for sure. Let me know what you think, or if anyone is interested!
