“Summer Girl” Blanket

Sometimes I feel like I get hit with a big inspiration stick. When this happens, I can’t settle until I get going on what I’ve been inspired to make. When this happens, I am very focused and very productive. It helps when it’s a smallish item, such as a baby blanket, of [...]

Being Helpful – The Yarn Walk

Big Elmer Two
