Green Chain Cuff

This cuff continues to be a favorite of mine...


This particular one is an extra small, and would be super cute on a child or young teen. I love the sparkle that the buttons bring.

Lotus Flower Cuff

I found this great pattern from Creative Yarn, and have been oogling over it for a really long time now. Well, I finally got around to making it!


It gave me a good reason to spend some time at the beach! I worked on it in the sand, then got to photograph it there too!


I adore this yarn, cause its not fuzzy. I like the fresh, cleanliness it brings to the cuff.


I really want to try using some fabric stiffener on my next cuff- Anybody have any advice on doing that with crochet? Is it pretty easy?

Felt Owl Lavender Sachet

My obsession for owls started quite a while ago, and it is still going strong! There is something about the owl that is mysterious, intriguing, cute, and wise all while holding the ability to conveniently fit adorably in any setting.




I had a bunch of different pieces of felt lying around, and did a little search to be inspired to do something with it. I landed upon many different ideas (google image "felt owl") and fell in love with one like this. It looked easy enough, and took me no time at all to get started!

I ended up filling this little guy with some fresh lavender from my garden, and it smells wonderful!

Adorable, right?!?!?!?!? I think this little guy might end up living in a drawer to keep my unmentionables smelling like lavender... Then again, it might be a little weird to have anything with eyes in my undies drawer...
