PNW Yarn Crawl
I moved back to the Pacific Northwest just over a year ago and finally got around to visiting a few local yarn stores. I looooove local yarn stores, though they’re always a little difficult for me because I want to buy ALL THE YARN.
Crochet Patterns
Cupcake Hat – Free Pattern
I happened to have one of my boxes of yarn out one day and my daughter kept trying to get me to make her something. She finally settled on a “cupcake hat”. Of course I’d never made a cupcake hat before but I stepped up to the challenge.
Hairpin Lace Baby Blanket

I didn’t do any work on the website today. I guess I overdid it yesterday and got a little burnt out. Then again, now that I’m back on here I’m itching to start trying to tweak things again. I doubt that feeling will ever really go away.
