The process of getting ready for a baby to arrive is exciting, joyful, and a little scary at times. So much needs to get done before you get to bring home that tiny bundle of joy. Schedules need to be adjusted, siblings need to be ready and accepting of a new companion, and the house […]
Sometimes we need a little mystery in our lives to spice things up. I’m not saying you’ve got to bust out the Agatha Christie novels or anything (although come to think of it, that sounds pretty nice right about now!) but every now and then a little curiosity can go a long way. Since it’s […]
It’s a brand new year, and with all the excitement of resolutions and fresh starts it’s the perfect time to learn something new! Maybe you’re a chronic crocheter who’s been wanting to learn to knit for years, or maybe you’re an avid knitter looking to learn how the world of hooks works. Maybe you’ve never […]
We’ve got a lot more winter ahead of us, and it’s important to stay warm. Unfortunately, ears, ankles, and toes have the misfortune of being overlooked when bundling up for a snowy afternoon. More often than not, one realizes her ears are bright red and throbbing from the cold after an hour braving the sparkling January tundra. It’s […]

The weather outside can get pretty frightful this time of year, and there’s nothing delightful about getting caught in the cold with only your fall wardrobe to keep you warm! It’s time to really start thinking about incorporating some bulky yarns and cozy accessories into your clothing collection – after all, there’s no need to […]
I’ll be honest: I have a love-hate relationship with gloves. On the one hand, cold fingers are the bane of my existence, and this is coming from a gal who’s constantly freezing. On the other hand, I hate how clumsy I feel when I’m wearing gloves or mittens – you can’t open things, you can’t […]
