Fun Stuff

Have you ever felt like you were spending more time thinking or reading about creativity than actually being creative?

I was browsing Brooklyn Tweed's Fall Collection of patterns and oh my, quite a few caught my eye. I love the Acadia Cardigan, the Levenwick Cardigan, the Sullivan Cardigan, and the Quinnipiac Cowl. I mean, really I love them all, but these are the three I can actually see myself making. The Perry Cardigan is great too, but I don't think it would be flattering in my current size.


I also found some pretty (and free!) patterns from Blue Sky Alpaca, like the Java Cloche, One-Cable Mitts, and the Zig-Zag Mittens and Hat.



And PurlBee never ceases to amaze me with their beautiful projects, like this baby blanket.

What patterns are making you swoon?

  2. Great links!

    I came across Sullivan a few weeks ago but am trying to finish up a couple of projects before casting it on. . . I have some Peace Fleece yarn in my stash I am hoping will work but I'll need to do a swatch to see if I can do nupps with it.

    The gift tags came yesterday - thank you so much for sending them and for the nice card!
