Making things with yarn
I’ve got some thoughts for you today that have been rolling around in my mind for a while. I hope that it isn’t taken as an anti-internet rant, because it’s not. I love the communication ability that we have, now. It makes me so happy to be able to talk with my kids who live …
I have just done something that may seem to be completely out of character. I just finished a new design with a rather, umm, risque sort of theme. Now, before I show you a sneak peek, I think this might require a little bit of explanation. It all began in the UK one day in …

I’m going to be tote-woolly (bad pun) honest. I started writing this blog post yesterday and then realized that I was just rambling about pretty much nothing, so I decided to delete it and start over again, because, you know, I could go on and on about all of the things going on, but it …
