I have always wanted to do a temperature blanket, but know I don't have the staying power to crochet or knit everyday. Then I saw Fiber Flux post a Temperature Shawl CAL. Each week you will crochet the average temperature for the week. After 52 weeks, you have a sweet shawl! That is do-able! I … Continue reading Temperature Shawl CAL

Malia CAL
Continuing along with Little Monkeys Crochet Malia CAL, I have started a Malia Ear warmer. Now, due to my not paying attention (at all), I started making the pattern and realized I hadn't even made it to the pattern yet. What the heck do I mean?

For this project (which called … Continue reading Create-A-Long
