Sending a pineapple to Hawaii

September 29, 2017 BeccaLeave a comment

It's a super sweet, super quick post this week. Maybe October will be better for blogging? Anyway, I made a pineapple! My good friend Jenny moved from outside Boston to the tropics of Hawaii! Jenny is one of those really great people in this world who seems effortlessly cool. She is adored by everyone and gets… Continue reading Sending a pineapple to Hawaii

Cutie Cactus

June 3, 2016 Becca2 Comments

What do you do with one skein of a bulky yarn in a funky green color? Make a toy! I purchased a grab bag of Dale Garn yarns a little while ago from woolybaabaa.com. Right away the Hubro caught my eye. I have a fondness for bulky yarns, but I struggled for a bit in… Continue reading Cutie Cactus

WIP Wednesday and Summer Startitis

June 24, 2015 Becca4 Comments

At long last, summer has returned! Things are shaping up to be busy, but fun. After a stretch of books that I picked up but did not finish, I grabbed the Luckiest Girl Alive from the library this week. It's not exactly what I thought, I can't stand the main character, but it's got enough… Continue reading WIP Wednesday and Summer Startitis

FO Friday Dimetrodon

June 19, 2015 Becca5 Comments

 This summer I'm participating in the Planet June Dinosaur Crochet-A-Long. Nate has been asking me to make a Spinosaurus for a while now, and while the Dimetrodon is not quite the same thing, he was happy to see it. The pattern pack I purchased included my favorite dinosaur, the Parasaurolophus, so it's a win all… Continue reading FO Friday Dimetrodon

FO Friday Sam’s Puppy and Blanket

June 5, 2015 Becca5 Comments

This week, the two projects I am sharing have been off the needles for a while. They were a baby gift and I didn't feel it was right to share until the little guy arrived! My cousin had her baby boy last week and these were made for him. I made the Baby Squared Baby… Continue reading FO Friday Sam’s Puppy and Blanket

AtoZ Challenge M is for

April 15, 2015 Becca3 Comments

Yarn: Just as I went through a stashing phase of Obtain ALL the Self-Striping Yarns, I also have fallen hard for the speckled ones as well. I think they will work especially well in a plain vanilla sock, or something with a simple rib, where the yarn can speak for itself. This yarn is the… Continue reading AtoZ Challenge M is for

Snow Tired

February 20, 2015 Becca6 Comments

You've probably seen and heard the jokes online about the cold and snow here in New England.  They are all true. It's cold, we're still surrounded by snow and ice and it just keeps coming without much of a break in between. During the first blizzard, way back in January, I started working on a… Continue reading Snow Tired

Halloween Listicles

October 27, 2014 Becca1 Comment

This candy corn buddy I made for my niece and of course I didn't get any photos of her with it! The pattern was easy and it worked up quick. Click here for the pattern; it is on the RepeatCrafterMe website, not yet on Ravelry. I haven't done a list in a while! Halloween is… Continue reading Halloween Listicles

Just Call Me Mother of Dinosaurs

July 11, 2014 Becca5 Comments

For my FO Friday, I'm pleased to share my third hand-made dinosaur! Joining Dino and Dinosaur Rex we have Spikey! Spikey the Stegosaurus, a Fresh Stitches design, is a really fun pattern to work up. As I've written before the pattern is straightforward and not complicated. Stacey's patterns are a great way to get started… Continue reading Just Call Me Mother of Dinosaurs

A Lot of Dinosaurs

July 9, 2014 Becca5 Comments

Yay for going to the library. I just finished the Ten-Year Nap (meh. Didn't love it or hate it.), so that went back and The Invention of Wings came home with me. My mom read it and spoke highly of it. We also found a pile of dinosaur related books. I didn't have a dinosaur… Continue reading A Lot of Dinosaurs
