Officially Open for Business

Just a short post to say I am officially selling my original patterns! I have just posted Cerise as a PDF download through the Ravelry pattern store. They have a fantastic service that will take care of all the pattern downloads and links to PayPal. All you have to do is click on the "Buy Now" button and you are linked straight to PayPal to purchase the pattern. So cool, this Ravelry.

Cerise

Finally finished the project I started back in February! It started out as a ballet wrap skirt with 3 tiers of ruffles, but ended up as a pull-on ribbon tie skirt with 2 ruffles. The Crystal Palace ribbon yarn is quite stretchy & the weight of an extra ruffle would really distort the shape I wanted.


Just a fun skirt for dress-up, over jeans or as a tutu, or just as it is for a summer day!

Pattern to be posted soon....

Distracted but Still Here

Sorry for the month or so absence. I've been on the go with the girls and enjoying the weather. Here are a few pics of what we've been up to.


Been thinking about knitting and have been on Ravelry almost daily, but can't seem to get it together to sit down and accomplish anything. Is this normal for having two kids under 3?? By the end of the day I am pretty much wiped out and just want to sit and chill for an hour or so before my bedtime.

I've been too much inside my own head these days as well. Still questioning my decision to not go back to work full time. Ironing out the financial issues and all. Going around and around in my mind until I started to drive myself (and my husband) crazy. I am happy to say that I am finally at peace with my decision. There's not much I am sure about lately, however this I am. I want to enjoy this opportunity to be with my girls for as long as I can while they are still so young. It is a time to cherish.
