Owning and working in a yarn shop with a bit of my life with Joe and the kids mixed in. Tuesday, September 22, 2015. One-Skein Wonders for Babies. I am most excited to be a part of the new One-Skein Wonders Book! The Perfect Baby Bib and Lizzy Janes are my two original designs included in the new One-Skein Wonders book. Even though this is the 3rd One-Skein Wonders book that I am honored to have patterns in, I have never considered myself a designer. That ability kicks in only. Lizzy Janes - a cute littl...

iPurl: My Monday Morning
http://ipurl.blogspot.com/2014/06/my-monday-morning.html
Owning and working in a yarn shop with a bit of my life with Joe and the kids mixed in. Wednesday, June 4, 2014. It's really Wednesday though. IPurl is closed on Mondays and Nancy works on Tuesdays. Today is the first day of my work week in the shop. Mondays are my real day off. I try not to do ANY shop related work at all - not even checking email. Tuesdays are currently designated for working on the new website. Now, products are added in a certain way to be pulled into the right categories. Hooray!

Owning and working in a yarn shop with a bit of my life with Joe and the kids mixed in. Tuesday, May 27, 2014. A Rainy Week Ahead. I am happy to see the rain! Many areas of Texas desperately need rain. Looks like it is going to be with us throughout the week too! Joe and I are still settling into our apartment. It's small and cozy. Efficient is a good description. The rain is delaying the clearing of our lot this week I am sure! This is our corner lot. Today is granddaughter Alexis' birthday!

Owning and working in a yarn shop with a bit of my life with Joe and the kids mixed in. Monday, June 9, 2014. It's a good day to be at the apartment - warm, cloudy, very humid with thunderstorms all around. I put a nice roast in the crockpot to have in the fridge for the coming week. A line of thunderstorms is moving thru. I'm having a hard time knowing when it's thundering or if the German Shepherd upstairs is romping about! Bella loves the porch! NORO is always an enjoyable yarn to knit! Subscribe to: ...

Owning and working in a yarn shop with a bit of my life with Joe and the kids mixed in. Sunday, June 1, 2014. The smells swirling around our little apartment are intoxicating - jasmine rice, Cajun smoked sausage, pinto beans, roux, onions and bell pepper are heavenly! Joe is cooking lunch today. Surely it must be time to eat lunch? The Astros game starts just after 1pm. Bella is napping on the love seat. The weather is gorgeous. It could not be a more perfect day! The rice is done! It's time to eat!
