One of the most difficult things about test projects is that you can't share them until they are published! This morning I got the OK to post this new shawl pattern, Feel The Breeze by Jennifer Weisman. The pattern is so clever and the knitting is addictive. I absolutely loved making it. The pattern looks gorgeous

Hello and happy weekend to you! I made this shrug a month or two ago and I LOVE it! It's the best shrug ever. Since we keep our heater on low, I find myself popping it on when I'm a little cold and a sweater is just not enough. It's perfect to wear in a restaurant where it's almost always too chilly for me. I also love that it goes under my new coat beautifully. It's a snap to make and uses budget friendly yarn! I'm going to make more!

Happy New Year! I hope you have recovered from the Christmas undecorating process and all the tidying up that follows! I have begun my spring cleaning and just like last year, I will take my time to do this crazy whole-house top-to-bottom cleaning thing that actually happens in winter and not spring. But first, let's talk about knitting. Knitting is way more fun than cleaning. I have four sweaters, a cowl and a shawl that I finished and now just need to photograph. That is easier said than done but I do have one for you today: Sunset Highway by talented Caitlin Hunter.
