- Welcome to my crafty corner of the internet, where I talk about my weekly knitting and crochet projects. Sometimes I'll talk about yarn that I've bought and every week I try to bring some fun patterns that I've run across. Thank you for coming!
I've been working on a variety of different projects while on vacation this week. I finished my Flax sock by Tin Can Knits and I'm pretty happy with it. I also started my first big goal cardigan for this year!
Make sure to comment below with your favorite pattern mentioned this week for a chance!

Am loving the stripy Musselburgh hat xx
Thank you! The Musselburgh is a great pattern, especially for self striping yarn 🙂 I hope you have a great week!
What I thought was funny was you saying, I’m all about subtle so I chose this Electric Purple 🤣 beautiful colors of all your new yarns.
😂 Electric purple is a type of subtle 😉
Those purples are lovely but I am looking forward to seeing your pink cardigan growing.
Thank you Sandra, I hope you’re having a great week 🙂
Hi Mandy! I loved your knits and future plans. Can’t wait to see the new yarn when it arrives.
Thank you Beth, I’m super excited for the new patterns and plans I’m starting 🙂 I hope that you have an awesome week!
I love that color changing yarn you got on vacation! I don’t use a shopping cart but I “favorite” a lot of patterns. Then I can go back and browse those. 😊
I love how it’s easy to store lists on Ravelry. It makes me so happy to be able to go back to patterns that have caught my eye in the past 🙂
Yes! I’ve also learned to use the Tags and Bundles to keep my favorites organized. I use the Comments to make note of the yarn and/or colors I am thinking about, and the number of skeins I would need. It makes it so much easier to shop with purpose.
You’re not alone! I currently have 78 in my cart lol Really enjoy your podcasts, thank you for sharing 😊
Thank you so much for watching 🙂 It makes me happy to hear that others also store a lot of patterns in their cart. I hope that you have a great week!
Omg thank you so much, I love how your flax sweater came out 😊
Thank you! You’re welcome, I hope you enjoy your pattern. You picked a very pretty one 🙂
@mandyvaughnknits thank you for the summer sorrel pattern. I can't wait to cast it on 😁
Fiber Optic Yarns has a double booth at Wisconsin Sheep & Wool Festival (September 6-8 this year) and they are always one of my favorites. I would love to use one of their gradients for a colorwork yoke. Their range of colors is amazing - it will be so hard to choose!
They had such a beautiful selection at the store. It would be so much fun to see them (and all the other vendors) at a festival! Using the gradient for a color work yoke is an awesome idea. I’m going to see if my kiddos will go for that over another hat 🙂❤️. I have always thought the color changing yokes are so pretty.
Your Flax sweater looks great! I finished a Harlow Sweater this past week but it is too hot to wear it so that will have to wait 😊
Love your plan for the Hipster top, can’t wait to see how that works up. I hope you have a nice week.
Oh, I just took a look at the Harlow sweater pattern and the v-neck Harlow. Both look so comfy! It’ll be sweater season before we know it. I hope that you have an awesome week as well 🙂
I use my queue in ravelry. i like to go in and rearrange the patterns.
I love the idea of using my queue so that I can rearrange the order of my projects. I bet it would make my pattern planning more organized 🙂
I'm a big fan of Fiber Optic Yarn. I'd love to visit the store but I'm out here on the west coast. On the Ravelry cart issue, very guilty as charged. Right now I have close to a dozen patterns in my cart😂😂😂😂
Joyce, if you ever get a chance - the store is amazing. All of the people that I interacted with were so kind. I told my husband that I wish they were closer to us 🙂. As for the patterns in my cart.. 😂
