I canNOT be trusted at any farmer's market of any kind! I bought a flat of strawberries this week for $7 and I plan on making jam in the morning. I'm going to use this recipe Food In Jars Strawberry Jam

I have my fingers crossed that it will turn out okay....wish me luck! :) Now I'm off to find all the supplies I need.

We <3 Sox!!!

I'm knitting my sweetie a pair of socks...on the toes/heel/cuff is basic black Red Heart sock yarn (Heart and Sole) and the body of the sock in Berroco (I think...lol) in Slate Grey on my trusty #2's!

Garden Beginnings

I'm trying my hands at gardening AGAIN this year. Wish me luck! I've got sweet basil, dill and cilantro on my window sills, jalapeno and bell peppers, radishes, and spring onions started so far. Next week will be tomatoes, squash and possibly lettuce and watermelons. OMG I'm so excited and nervous all at the same time. I also read an article about straw/hay bale gardening that I'm thinking of trying out!

I sewed a hobo bag!!!

EPIC. KNITTING. FAIL. :(

Bar Towels, Dish/wash cloths and YOU!!! :)

I've been trying to knit down some of my cotton stash and I'm using a pattern from an episode of Knitty Gritty by Star Athena for various bar towels. I plan on using this one as a hand towel in my bathroom b/c it's knit out of that lavender scented yarn from Sugar n' Creme.

 This one is some mystery cotton that I wasn't sure if I was going to have enough of, so I made it into a dish/wash cloth.

Queen of the small projects...

Needing some quick and instant gratification projects so I knit a few coffee cup cozies, dishcloths and small hats.
