Hello, hello,
Will Spring ever make an appearance? It's early April, but it feels like late Autumn/early Winter. If you're like me, you're beyond sick of being cooped up indoors and ready to toss your winter coat for shorts and flip flop.
As I am getting ready for Spring Break and planning what to pack (side note: Planning my yarn and projects to take on vacation are the first things in my luggage. And yes, I am packing like a camel going into the desert. My hump is full of yarn like there's no more yarn in the 100-miles radius, that if I complete a project and good forbid I run out of yarn, HA, I won't be able to get more yarn. Silly me!) I wanted to share some things I am thinking about making and yarns I am digging on.
Find your next CO project:
Artisan Yarns Lace weight
Crochet Chevron Dishcloth
This is one of my FREE patterns on the Knit Picks website. It makes a great Mother’s Day gift. I'll be making a couple to pair with some fun soaps. Get the pattern here
Linstead Shawl
My latest crochet shawl pattern. It has become a favorite - it works up fast and uses only one skein of Knit Picks Stroll Gradient. I have this sample packed for Spring Break vacation but afraid I might loose it on the plane, so instead, I will be crocheting another one on the 14-hr flight. Problem solved - I get to make AND wear the shawl on vacation, YAY! Get the yarn here and the pattern here

A rising tide lifts all boats!
