Blueberry Cell Phone Case, Tree Series


I have been making cell phone cases lately. Here is the Blueberry. They fit most cell phones.










And... Here is a sampling of the Tree Series I have been working on, that I will soon have for sale. I have been taking pictures of trees and their bark for awhile now. I love the different textures and colors, and how unique each section of the tree is.

Green Green Green and Polly Poncho


This is the Polly Poncho. Pretty similar to the Phoebe Poncho.




Green Green Green!!!! This is what it looked like while visiting family, it was so lush, it was like a jungle. This is not what Colorado generally looks like, it was amazing. I really didn't want to come home :(

The Phoebe Spring Poncho



Here is my new creation: A lacy, loosely knitted, spring poncho. This one is called The Phoebe.
I can't wait to make myself one.

I am hoping to load on some new nature photos I have been taking, and eventually want to sell on Etsy. I am thinking of opening a new shop seperately for photography. Have a good one!

Spring Fingerless Mittens




I just loaded this pair of the Maya Spring Fingerless Mittens.
They are really light and the cuff is shorter, so they're perfect for warmer weather. I love wearing them while I'm typing, because my hands are always cold! We've been gone off and on for almost a month now, so hopefully I will start to catch up, and I will try and post more often. It's nice and sunny out, so I'm taking my knitting outside. Enjoy your day!

Sandunes




Hello all!
We just got back from a relaxing, sunny, little mini vacation in the Sandunes. It is gorgeous there and so warm. The patterns that the Medano Creek left in the sand was one of my favorite parts of the whole trip. Such unique textures.
I will be posting some new Spring Fingerless Mittens as soon as I can. I have also been knitting some really bright and colorful skinny headbands, so keep checking back!

The Little Things That Make Me Happy

















I have started making some new knitted items that I like to call Dread Wraps. They can be used to hold dreadlocks or can be worn as a neckwarmer, earwarmer, hat, etc. I was inspired when we went to an outdoor Wailers concert this past weekend, and there were so many people with dreads.

The Little Things that make me happy:
The mornings when I wake up, and there are new groceries to look forward too, such as these juicy red strawberries.

The surprise I found in our sink the other day. We had soaked some beans for dinner, and a few got away and were hiding out in our sink, and they sprouted! So I planted them next to a house plant, and suddenly, within a few days, the sprouts had doubled in size!

And the short table we have by the window that is filled with nothing but bright green plants. Even if it's still shades of gray and brown outside, at least it's bright green in my house! I can't wait for it to actually feel like spring is here, so far the outlook is not good for this week. We can look forward to more snow and rain!!! Rain actually might be nice, it will help with the brown and gray shades outside and maybe bring out some green shoots of new life.

The Mara Flower Scarflette/Headband and Scout

Introducing Scout, the most amazing Chocolate Lab ever, and our buddy!


Here is my new Flower Scarflette/Headband, The Mara. I have been trying to keep up with my spring knitting, but it seems that spring has brought me a sinus infection, so I've mainly been lying around napping. My poor dog Scout has been so patient with me, and has just let me sleep. Thank goodness for my Fiance, he's been taking care of me and Scout. He's out taking Scout for a walk right now! And he made me breakfast this morning. What a guy :)

Rasberries and Cream


I have made a new hat called "The Rasberries and Cream Seed Hat."

It's sunny here again, but a little breezy. I think I'm coming down with a cold or something, so I'm going to cozy up and keep knitting fun spring items. Enjoy your day!

Seed Hats




I purchased this hemp coffee filter from http://http://www.naturalbluecloud.etsy.com//
It works great and it's reusable, so better for the environment. What could be better than that???

I just added a new hat called the "Spring Green Seed Hat" to my Etsy shop. I can't wait to make one for myself, it is still snowing here! But this hat will work for spring too, because it's nice and loose and airy. Happy weekend!!! :)
