Index cards?

IC Doodles anyone?

Sometimes doodling on a big piece of paper can be quite intimidating...
That is when i reach for an index card!

They are smaller can be filled up quickly, well most of the time lol.
I love using them in my crafting too.



If you are interested in seeing more check my YT channel for the video!
It will be  up this week!

Thanks for spending time with me today!

Getting ready for fall

I love this time of year!

The comfy cozy clothes, the warm decadent drinks and
 cuddling up with a fave throw and good book or movie, it can't be beat.

I love being able to wear my hand knits also. Don't get me wrong I like the brisk chill not the cold of winter you can keep that depth of cold! LOL

Anyway if you follow me on YT you may have already seen these.
If not here is your chance.


My slipper socks!
These are a gift, I made these for an upcoming birthday.
I really like how they came out.


I do like the traditional heels or fish lips kiss heel but I needed a quick solution for mass quantity and more or less a fits multiple sizes kinda thing, lol.

Well this is my answer, i think they will work pretty well for most.
I know the person these are for will love them..

Thanks for stopping by see you in the next one.

Drawing words

I know it sounds funny but Lettering is a fancy way of saying,
Drawing words.

I tried in the past to do lettering but was unsuccessful, so I figured it was time to once again give it a go! I do like it however i can definitely use practice.

That is where this drawing book comes in. 
I will be trying my hand at lettering in this book every now and then and will share the outcomes
Good or Bad
posted right here with you all.


What do you think?

Watch my YT channel for the video!
It will be posted this week!

Thanks for stopping by!

The color Utah...

I cast off a new project and it only took one skein of 50 gram yarn!
They are almost identical too!
Aww yea! lol

Sorry about the lighting but it unfortunately is what it is today...



I Love how these socks came out! I did my plain vanilla pattern because I needed a no brainer project just to keep my hands active and have a cute pair of socks in the end.
Here is a close up of one folded. 


Perfect colors for fall i am super excited to be able to wear these when the weather starts cooling off.
 Here is a close up on a blocker. 


I would love to know your thoughts on these! Keep an eye on my YT channel a video for this will be up this week! Thanks for stopping in and spending some time with me today!
Have a great day!

Time to do dishes...

I really dislike doing dishes! 
I don't mind cooking or baking but washing dishes is a dirty job,
 and I'm the one to do it! LOL (A line from an eighties song) ;)

I am really not a fan of the dish drains that sit out on the counter and the commercial towels for the dishes are plain and average.
So I have been making my own for awhile now. I have a blue set that I love and use daily. But I need more for when one is in the wash. So this is what I just finished!


I used 100% cotton and a simple knit pattern. The cotton comes on a large spool and i love this variegated green. It has cream, blue and green and i love how it works up.
this is a project I dawdle on I am eager to start then about half way i putter out. I lose drive but then as it gets closer to the end i speed up and am happy i have a new cloth and happy i am done! Lol


It is a love hate relationship. If i could speed up the process i would enjoy it more. Hahaha
Needless to say it may be just a bit before I cast the next one one. ;) 

I will have a YT video on this later in the week, be sure to stop by and check it out!
Thanks for spending some time with me!

New Project Finished!

I am super happy I have finished another project. 
I made a new pattern as I went along and this is what I came up with! I really am happy to get my yoga mat out from under the couch where i can see it and be reminded to use it more LOL!

I choose pink and black yarn and went to town crocheting!
Here it is folded up actually only in half really.


I thought pink and black were a natural choice considering my mat is pink and I like to match. Here I placed the bag over the mat so you can see it is a full size yoga mat.


Even with the mat in the bag there is plenty of room to add a towel and weights too maybe even your yoga clothes. Mine fit well with a bit of room to spare.


It also has a thick double icord strap that cinches the mat securely like a drawstring. Super easy to open and close and the mat slides in easily no struggling to be had. Just put another on my to do list for my daughter. These are great to gift especially for those people in your life that exercise but have everything.

Thanks for spending some time with me today I appreciate it! Keep an eye on my YT for the video!
