A change of pace

My cat, Madi

Normally, I would have started my next project right away but with the seasons changing I have found myself wanting to sit by the fire place and read as many books as I can get my hands on! This past week I have been reading Emma by Jane Austen out loud to my cat, Madi, because I get an enjoyment watching her sit in front of me and cock her head sideways at me. I told my husband that she is dreaming of Mr. Knightley and I have no doubt that she has decided that she prefers the high society. 
She is making my life very interesting! :)

My Broadway Sweater


This is my broadway sweater!!
It is so soft and cuddly!! 
I can hardly wait to wear it.
The sleeves are a little bit longer then I had hoped but 
all in all I think this turned out good! 

Now to figure out what I am going to work on next...

I hope it turns out as great as the basketweave capelet did! :)

My Blackberry Basketweave Capelet



This sweater has been my favorite since 2009 but I never was able to follow the pattern. 
I was in the middle of another sweater (that I am still currently working on) and decided I wanted to try
to make this basketweave sweater as well. 
I have had so much fun and can hardly wait to wear it!! 
Tomorrow I need to go buy some cute buttons.

What do you think!?!?!
 


I will post another picture of me wearing it as soon as I add the buttons.
I am so ready for winter!!! :)

(the first picture came from the Crochet Today magazine)

Sneak Peak

I know it has been a while since my last post but I am still here and well! I have been working on two BIG projects that are taking some time to complete. As soon as I am finished I will share them with you. Until then... here is a sneak peak of one of my projects that I have been wanting to make for over a year!!


Until then, enjoy a crafty moment.
