Thanksgiving, the wedding / part on friday. MY wedding - still seems surreal! I've been driving my fiance crazy this week singing "He'll make me happy Each time I see him He'll be the reason My heart can sing He'll stand beside me And now I'm everything."

I have been very cautious about doing this sort of thing (meaning I've… Continue reading 2 Treats!

It's been a while, but - tah-Dah!! A knitting photo! I'm using Cascade 220 - it's a purpley-green. I love this shade - my mom commented on it when I used it to make a Sophie bag over the summer. So, she's the intended recipient of this scarf - birthday or christmas, I don't quite… Continue reading Irish Hiking Scarf Knit-Along Progress

I've decided that while you all patiently wait for my next knitting post I would work on one of those "100 Things About Me" list. I think I can come up with that. 1. My name is Becca. 2. I'm left-handed. 3. I cut right-handed though. 4. I've always been crafty. 5. I doodle more… Continue reading 100 Things About Me
