Closet Organization

I have had this on my to-do list for awhile, but had so many adorable, Pinterest-inspired ideas floating around, that I never got around to making a final decision, buying all the supplies or actually completing the task (I have dubbed this Pinterest Paralysis)

Anyway...yesterday I was cleaning and organizing and decided to just do it and not wait for it to be perfect or Pinterest worthy...here is what I finally did...


I hung my jewelry up! I have a nice jewelry box, but I find that the necklaces get tangled and I completely forget I have so many awesome necklaces...plus many of them have stories behind them.

I used 3M hooks and just stuck em to the wall. It's not perfect. They aren't evenly spaced, aren't level, isn't artistic, the necklaces aren't draped from an adorable branch or intricate sculpture that I welded together in my spare time...but it does make me insanely happy, I smile every time I enter my closet and I remember to accessorize more! :)

Do you have something on your list that you want to make perfect, but it might be better to just do it and get it done??

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

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

How are you all doing with holiday gifts? Still need a few to knock out quick-like? I found these cute gifts that I think could work up fast. For the book lovers on your list, I think these cute crocheted chicken bookmarks are hilarious! Crochet Colorful Chicken Bookmark by PurrCraftedDesign . The pattern sells for $4.95 on Ravelry and calls for a sport weight cotton. The shop sells a DK cotton that would also work beautifully for these cuties - Ricorumi Another bookmark pattern is Leaf Bookmark & Garland Motif by Joey Diehl . This pattern is FREE and calls for Worsted weight yarn, so Uptown Worsted would be perfect for this. How about a sweet pocket friend for a child? This one is super basic, called Worry Pet by Blue Fox Paws and is a FREE pattern and uses any gauge yarn! It would be fun to use a textured yarn, or a fuzzy kind, but any yarn works. You can opt to put the ears on or not. We have safety eyes in the shop, too! Do you know someone who uses Airpods and could use a co...
