Life as a Kender: March 2015
http://lifeasakender.blogspot.com/2015_03_01_archive.html
Life as a Kender. Thursday, March 12, 2015. Where you blow into a dish filled with water, dish soap, and acrylic. Making lots and lots of bubbles. And the resulting artwork. Saturday, March 7, 2015. Spending a Saturday morning painting with Dad. Thursday, March 5, 2015. The beauty of having an older sibling is that he will read (or in this case, make up) stories for you. A little glue, some salt baking soda. Then pour some colored vinegar over it and watch your artwork erupt! Wednesday, March 4, 2015.

Life as a Kender. Tuesday, February 25, 2014. Sonia does not nap. Instead, she cannonballs off of Aiden's bed. Saturday, February 22, 2014. Aiden and Sonia head to Liberty Science Center.

Anybody else noticing a theme? To stave off insanity on this snow day, we turned to science. Friday, February 14, 2014. What I'm D...

Life as a Kender. Friday, February 27, 2015. Sometimes the need to draw is so intense, one must use two hands. Wednesday, February 25, 2015. Strapped to Mommy's back. In her car seat with a tissue paper blanket. But she's not tired. Sunday, February 8, 2015. The very first one. Aiden had told me that morning that he knew today was the day. He tried to pull it himself, but it was too slippery. So, instead, it came out during a birthday party at Chuck E. Cheese. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom).

ummashin: JOY shawlette
http://ummashin.blogspot.com/2014/09/joy-shawlette.html
Sunday, September 28, 2014. Raise your hand if you've experienced love at first sight.with a skein of yarn. That eye candy yarn that you just HAD to have. Then keep your hand up if that skein of yarn is still languishing away in a box in the closet or on the shelf. Poor yarn! I had a couple of these types of skeins and so I wrote a pattern for them, and I'd like to share that with you! JOY is a worsted-weight shawlette with plenty of visual interest that's also fun to knit. Love, Hannah AKA ummashin.

ummashin: May 2014
http://ummashin.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 19, 2014. Like my new sweater? The pattern is Antrorse. And is part of the JOURNEY collection/collaboration. The pattern is by Shannon Cook. Like all of Shannon's patterns, the instructions are clear and incorporates classic sensibility with modern twists. I highly recommend this pattern! I finished this a while ago, but it took me a while to photograph it. Mostly because it's been beastly hot and today was the first day I could stand to wear the sweater for more than five minutes.

Life as a Kender: July 2013
http://lifeasakender.blogspot.com/2013_07_01_archive.html
Life as a Kender. Monday, July 29, 2013. Friday, July 26, 2013. Concert in the Park. Brookdale Park has free concerts on Fridays throughout the summer. This one was a Bee Gee's tribute. Aiden and Sonia decided to spend the time running circles around Dad. And then collapsing on him. Of course, no concert would be complete without a little dancing. Wednesday, July 24, 2013. A hike with mom. Aiden, our fearless leader. Sonia, our flower picker. I'll hold up this tree for you, mom! Monday, July 22, 2013.

ummashin: January 2015
http://ummashin.blogspot.com/2015_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 26, 2015. I've been in a fog for, well, months really. Even the holidays went by fairly unceremoniously due to sickness of one family member or another. Now it's time to get healthy, get out of the funk, and be productive! Speaking of productive, here is Becca. My latest hat pattern. Yarn: Knitpicks Wool of the Andes. This hat ("toque" if you live north of he-ah) is an easy knit that requires little effort to achieve great looking results. Becca, the happy Northerner of Nook.

ummashin: June 2013

Saturday, June 22, 2013. Summer is finally here, and I finally had time to reunite with my Janome. I had to literally. Dust her off poor thing. Using Shannon's nifty FREE. Reversible project bag tutorial. I finally made myself a project bag. The pattern is so clearly written and was a great way to get my sewing legs back. I used the same fabric for the whole bag, but I don't think it diminished the cuteness factor at all! This random calico print reminds me of Little House on the Prairie. Slightly embarr...
