Out with the Old
If you look at my 2020 Temperature Blanket, you would have no idea that we lived through a pandemic, that our normal has changed, that our vacations were canceled, that we cover our faces in public now. Maybe that’s indicative of where our hope should lie in “times like these”—in our one constant in all… Continue reading Out with the Old
Temperature Blankets
I seem to have a love for yearlong projects—things that I can create little by little adding continuity throughout the year. I have come up with a few temperature blankets in recent years that have been a huge success.

2018 Wrap Up
It is only 8 hours from 2019 and I find myself contemplating the past year. Did I reach my crochet goals? Did I finish enough projects? Did I become more successful?

Temperature Blanket 2019: The Pattern

So my tree looks a little like a house. Who’s looking? It matches beautifully with the scarf anyway… Continue reading Winter Wonderland Hat (Free Pattern)
Winter Wonderland Scarf (free pattern)
One week ago, we were in the car driving from Kansas to Pennsylvania. Kansas (and much of the Midwest) had just been hit by a blizzard. Seriously, a blizzard. While the snow had just started when we left for church Sunday morning, by the time we returned to my in-laws two hours later, we could… Continue reading Winter Wonderland Scarf (free pattern)
