Owl Hat Pictures

Many of you remember my owl hat I posted about here. I made these hats for someone that has their own photography business. I had gotten some pictures from her of the hats. Her pictures are obviously leagues better than mine.

Seriously how adorable?! I am still drafting up the pattern for this hat. It will come eventually!

Reveling in Ravelry- Gather 'Round the Campfire

Welcome to my online bonfire! Who doesn't love to sit around a fire on a cool summer's night!

Check out some of the great things you can knit or crochet to go along with it!

Campy and the Mallows: Well to start this party, we definitely need to start with a fire. This one comes with a bonus of mallows on a stick. Sadly, one of them is looking a little burnt.

Hot Dog: Perfect dinner for those looking for something over a fire. Although I must say I prefer some ketchup on top of mine...

Amigurumi S'more: What is a better treat while gathering around the fire? I love this little guy!

Find them on Ravelry:

What's in my Queue?

In case you haven't noticed, I really enjoy my Star Wars. Imagine my excitement when I found this cute little guy in my queue.

Who doesn't love a little furry Ewok? Little, furry and quick to make. Check our Ravelry or Etsy to find many other Star Wars amigurumi as well. I am definitely making it a priority to make this little critter soon.

Reveling in Ravelry- Fourth of July

I know, it's so cliche, but it was bound to happen. Right? Well hopefully everyone will find plenty of time to whip up a project or two while you're out about about this weekend. Here are some fabulous ones to incorporate into your party this year!

4th of July Toilet Paper Topper: Having people over? Keep extra toilet paper available in your bathroom without simply having it sitting out. Plus it stays with the theme!

Checkerboard Picnic Blanket: If you're going to see some fireworks then check this out! This project will do double duty! Keep the kids occupied while your waiting for the fireworks to start and provide them with something to sit on. Who doesn't like to kill two birds with one stone?

4th of July Beach Bag: Spend the day at the beach with your new beach bag. This things will hold a ton. No matter where you end up on Independence Day, you will have a great bag to lug around.

Beverage Can Holder: Perfect holder for your drink of choice this weekend. Although, I must say, I agree with the picture. Coke is definitely the best choice!

Hope everyone has a safe, wonderful, RELAXING holiday weekend! I know I plan on it!

Changes are a'comin

It's always good to grow and strive for improvement. I believe so anyways. With that said I have decided I am going to make some big changes around here, all of which are for the better. New hosting, new domain, new new new!

Hopefully, this transition will be smooth and easy. I am aiming to have all my content and links moved over easily!

I have Interest in Pinterest

My sister always tells me when she finds cool websites, or crafts or whatever. She introduced me to a very cool website called Pinterest.

Basically it is a very creative way to keep track of all the awesome things your run across on the interest. Instead of having a bazillion bookmarks as I do- you simply pin them. Then of course they had to make it so other people could see exactly what you are doing so you can follow people's pin boards.

So let me know if you want in invite or follow me here.

Reveling in Ravelry- Beach Animals

I decided I was going to start a weekly series of different Ravelry patterns I come across and love. I am going to try and keep within a theme each week and if you have a pattern that goes with the theme feel free to comment!!

This weeks theme is beach animals. I am so ready for summer and the official calendar start of summer was this week. So I figured we should give a nod to the start of summer.

Duuuuude the Sea Turtle- So cute and I have recently been loving little animals that are so quick to knit!

Little Lobster- I first came across this adorable little lobster while browsing but the real gem was discovered when I actually looked at the full picture instead of the thumbnail- the mermaid. I mean what gets more summery and beachy than that!! So here is a pdf of both patterns. Little Lobster and Baby Mermaid.

Fishing Game- How many of you ever played the magnetic fish game with the little fishing poles when you were younger? Because I certainly did all the time!!! This is a highly portable version of this game and the water even turns into a carrying case for this game!! This would be a perfect game to bring to the beach for the kiddies!!

Jellyfish- Speaking of games, if you're Dory from finding Nemo, we can bounce on top of the jellyfish. I love this little guy and I think he would look super cute in many different colors. I just love how the little spirals come down as the tentacles!

Throughout the post I linked directly to the blog posts so you could quickly check out the details of the projects.

Now here you can share your work on Raverly
