I am SUPER excited to announce that I am one of the designers for next year's Carolina FiberFest Craft-Along! And the pattern is officially live!!

You can check out both designs and download the patterns via the Carolina FiberFest website and there is also a Ravelry gro...

I met Kim during the first annual James River Yarn Crawl at Center of the Yarniverse in Ashland, VA. We even chatted crochet a bit! 

A couple months later, she touched base with me about doing a version of my Marl the Spectrum Cowl using her four-color rainbow Weather s...

I recently decided that my son is old enough to handle library books. I've been considering it for a while, but since we just moved, and it's in the middle of a hot Texas summer, and we need some indoor activities, I thought we'd give it a try. So we’ll see. He’s three...

After finishing up my Granny at a Rave Shawlette, I found myself with very nearly full mini skeins still! I only added a single row of each color and then I also used the neons for the tassels, so it really didn't take much yarn. What to do with the leftovers? They wer...

As I sit here watching the snow fall, I can't help but be mesmerized by it. I've already seen one snowfall this winter, so, really, I'm good. We made a snowman and everything. But it IS pretty. Each flake completely unique. Each one fleeting. So much beauty in such a t...

After falling in love with the print I was able to make with a simple granny square, I knew that I needed to revisit my very first crochet design for my next Impression. The Climbing Leaves Scarf (pattern available on Ravelry) was what I consider to be my first truly o...

I'm back with more marling! That's right, I loved it so much in the Marl the Spectrum Cowl, that I had to do another project with it! PLUS color fades. PLUS speckles. PLUS the Fibonacci Sequence. Can you see the stars shining in my eyes yet? 

So here it is, the Sweet Ca...

I've had this idea bumping around in my head for quite some time. And I'm not even really sure when it became fully developed. It simply became this burning desire to TRY. And so last month I crocheted a tiny granny square out of cotton thread. 

It wasn't the tiniest th...

Y'all. I have been looking forward to this event since before I even got in! Yes, there's limited space available each year, and I have to admit that that's one of the reasons I loved it as much as I did. It's set in the beautiful Tennessee countryside on Lake Francis...
