Welcome to my blog!

Well hi and welcome to my blog, kind of like my diary of the randomness and craftiness of my life.
In 2011, I realized I needed to make a change in my life and decided I would give up traditional clothing shopping for an entire year. I would either sew my own clothing from my enormous fabric stash or I would refashion items from thrift stores. Along this I hoped to open up my artistic and creative side.... Not to mention to learn how to sew!
As a result I am keeping a blog of all my accomplishments (and failures!) from attempting to sew and refashion clothing.
Welcome to my blog! :)

Look I started a knitting class!

Well I have had 2 classes! I know how to cast on and cast off! Here's what I completed after 1 class. Not bad for someone not good with yarn things!

I totally forgot but I actually have light up knitting needles in my craft storage. I got them for $0.99! They are like knitting light sabers.

Here's what I practiced during the week before my second class. Again not bad! 

I can almost make ear warmers out of them. But I learned how to cast off with this part. Now I have purchased more yarn and ready to knit more. I see a bright fuschia pink scarf in my future!!

Yay so one thing off my craft bucket list. I should have done this last year (s).

Cheers,
Lauren

How fun! I found a YouTube video of finger knitting and Liberty has been making scarves. I may look into a class for her and I to do together. I found my great-grandmother's knitting needles a few weeks ago.
