A New Direction

Hello friends! Well I have embarked on a new and exciting path! I am hoping to have a store in 3 years, when my youngest starts kindergarten and so I am adding jewelry an accessories to my list. Here are some of the pretty things I've gotten so far. You can take a look at everything I have on my facebook page Doodle and Bug Designs.

I am having the funnest time with all of this and soon I will be getting in clothes. I am still making things like the scarves, but adding what all women want more of! 

Knitting Scarves and Hats With A Loom

Happy New Year!!!!

 

 

Around November of last year (which seems like yesterday), I was at Hobby Lobby (of course) and saw looms on an end aisle and was instantly intrigued! Now I'm addicted. It's super ease and so far I have made scarves and hats. I will be trying to film it and put it on You Tube so you can see how easy it is. Of course, if you can't wait..go to youtube and type in loom knitting and start creating. I have found out that for the soft-as-silk feeling scarves that drape beautifully, to use Yarn Bee's Soft Secret Yarn. It comes in the prettiest colors and is all around wonderful to use. Hobby Lobby seems to have the best selection. Here are some pics of the scarves:

 

 

Arent' they just beautiful?! I have been busy making scarves for weeks now and the orders keep coming in, which makes me very happy. And, I know what the women in my family are getting for Christmas this year!

I used the round looms for the hats. Next I'm going to try leg warmers! Here are some pics of the hats:

 

So it's your turn to get out there and knit! It also keeps me calm :)
