• The Working Man Beanie (Free Knitting Pattern)

    Introduction I chose the name ‘Working Man Beanie’ because I designed this beanie with the outdoor, hard working man in mind.  My significant other works in construction so the high vis orange was a must (have you looked for Chartreuse yarn?!).  It was a win-win-win with this color as he’s a Tennessee Volunteers fan AND he also has a set of coveralls this same color! Talk about meant to be.. Inspiration There are so many adorable ‘Mommy and Me’ sets out there but what about ‘Daddy and Me’ sets?! You don’t see very many (if any!) of those so here’s a hoorah for that too! But it doesn’t have to…

  • Loki & Lucy’s Luxe Lapghan (Free Crochet Blanket Pattern)

    First thing’s first, here are the adorable twins behind the name of this blanket 😉 Introduction I’ll start this post by [shamefully] telling you that my twins turned 3 this past April and I’ve never made blankets for them!  So I was browsing through my local Joann one day and came across all the beautiful colorways of Bernat Bundle Brights and immediately fell in love with these two in particular.  They were both right next to each other and screamed my twins’ names at me! Fast forward however many months later to when I told my mom about this yarn and how I wanted to make blankets for the twins…

About…
