The shoes I wear


I wear shoes like the ones above. These aren't my actual shoes, that would take finding the camera, finding the memory card, finding the shoes, etc. It is much easier to google "frumpy, boring black flats" and ....wammo....there are my shoes! :)

I'm not fancy, I'm frugal. I would rather have boring black shoes that go with half my wardrobe and a boring brown pair that go with the other half of my wardrobe, than a pair of shoes that can only be worn with one outfit. 

But sometimes, when I'm sitting around in my mom jeans, crazy hair and grown out pedicure....I come across something I want for no reason at all....



These shoes are so not me. I'm pretty sure I don't own a single thing that would "go" with these shoes. But wouldn't it be fun for one day to not think about a budget...not care about automobile safety because OBVIOUSLY this person is not wearing a seatbelt...throw caution to the wind and wear absurdly expensive shoes you might never wear again?

Naptime is over and the children are not content in their beds....back to my reality....Pretty sure I've been watching too much "Sex & the City" again!

Karen Chemo Cap 5th Anniversary Makeover

I had someone ask me about the Karen Chemo Cap Fan Stitch and I decided the video and pattern were both in need of a make-over! Especially when I noticed this year is the 5th anniversary of publishing this pattern. When my mom had chemo I made her a few different hats because honestly it felt like the only thing I could do. I designed this one just for her, and was super excited when it was her favorite! After she passed I wasn't sure I wanted to release the design, but with a little time...it felt like the right thing to do! You can download the pattern for free here (please give it a favorite over on Ravelry so that it gets a little Ravelry love!!!):  Ravelry: Karen Chemo Cap pattern by A Little Knitty Designs You can purchase the yarn we used here:  Cumulus by Juniper Moon Farm (alittleknitty.com) Here is the video if you need help with the fan stitch!

Chemo Caps - Part 2

The Gia Chemo Cap doesn't have the same sort of story behind it as the Karen Cap , but it was developed with Chemo patients in mind! Please share this pattern with anyone who would like to knit a hat for someone in need! You can download your pattern here: http://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/gia-chemo-cap

Free Pattern - Moose Mountain Cowl

Materials:  Yarnalia Cloud - 50g / 142 Yards - Main Color = Grey, Contrast Color = Blue 70% Baby Alpaca 7% Merino Wool 23%Recycled Polyamide US13 24” Circular Knitting Needles   1 Stitch Marker   Gauge : 12.5 stitches per 4” in Pattern Finished Measurements:  Jen’s  Pattern Notes:  We love using this little knitting hack of knitting one round when we change our colors. This eliminates the purl stitches looking a little funky (if you know, you know).  We decreased by 25% of the stitches about halfway through the cowl to allow the top of the cowl to be a little closer to the neck and the bottom spread over your shoulders if you want to wear it that way! We gave you little check boxes to check off as you complete repeats. **PATTERN** Using Main Color, CO92, place stitch marker and join in the round Round 1: (K2, P2) Repeat parentheses all the way around Repeat Round 1 six more times       ⃞          ⃞...
