Heart Day is coming! Heart Day is coming! I LOVE hearts!! On a whim, I cut up some felt into hearts, stitched them and stuffed them slightly. I also found this awesome crochet heart pattern online. Super easy to follow. Then I added my own lacey edging to make it look more Valentine-y! (Here is the edge pattern: st in edge after you sew the two heart together, ch 5 and then st in edge again 3 spaces apart all the way around the heart. 1 sc, 1 hdc, 3 dc, 1 hdc, 1sc in each ch 5 space).

Holy Moly! I have not blogged in months! Well since it is a new year might as well jump back on the blog band wagon. Instead of boring you with a recap of the latest happenings - here is some of the craftiness I have been up to:
I knitted two hats for my neices. My one neice Hannah went to France last summer so I thought it was cute she put it on like a beret. But they can also be worn pulled way back (I am not sure how that is a fashion trend now but it is). I got the pattern out of this book:
It is a great go to book for lots of cute patterns divided into different types of yarns so it is easy to find something that would work with any kind of yarn in your stash. I also knitted two pairs of gloves but wrapped them up and mailed them as gifts before I could take pictures. But I will be making more for my Etsy store so stay tuned!
