Went to my local library today and picked up these books. They have a few cute patterns but not enough to where I'd want to purchase, just borrow.

I added more WIP's to my list:

The Anika sweater from


and the Zig Zag Skirt from


Hope to be posting pics of FO's soon...

This is my adaptation of the newsboy cap from FCEC. I guess I'm on the a hat roll this week, but I do plan on finishing my dress by Saturday.

Why are some PETA activist so stupid? I'm pretty sure it's a simpler way to get your point across than assualting someone. On yesterday in Paris, prior to the Chanel Couture show, Vogue editor Anna Wintour was hit in the face with a tofu cream pie by an animal rights activist yelling, "Fur hag!" and made a quick getaway. I tell you what, you hit me in the face with anything especially while I'm wearing a very expensive fur, you BETTER run!

This is fresh off of my hook. This hat worked up really quickly, like about an hour. I used Lion Brand Wool-Ease Thick & Quick and a N hook.

In my house, my afghans never get neglected... there is always someone cuddled up in one!

On one of my down periods when I got completely sick of looking at the tiny threads of that dress, I decided to make a kufi style cap for my husband to match the scarf that I made for him.

I have officially been crocheting this dress for 2 weeks now and I hope to be finished this coming week. If you have a copy of the pattern, I am on Row 44. I've been blocking and trying on the entire time and it looks as if this dress will hit right at the knee.
