Happy New Year. Feliz ano Nuevo.......

Happy New Year to all. I just know this is going to be such a wonderful year. 2012 was a year of great changes for me. The biggest being the move from Dallas, Texas to Seattle, Washington. I have learned to make some much warmer items and appreciate being able to find supplies. I have a hard time finding the yarns I used in the south but I will adjust and learn to use new ones.

I have so many ideas for my Etsy shop this year. My very first pattern is one that my son asked for. My boys live in Alabama and are football fans. Soo this child asked me to make him a pair or Elephant Trunks. I can not say I was the happiest camper about it but OMG they are so cute.

I made two different pairs one for each son. The one on the bottom is getting the Alabama A embroidered on the front bottom right leg.

I did take time to write the pattern which you can find here in my etsy shop. Elephant Trunk Pattern

I am so looking forward to the new year and mor fun things to create and design.

So many changes

Looking at my blog I realize it has been quite a while since I have posted anything at all. Since my recent post I have moved from Mesquite, Texas up north east to lovely Auburn, WA. When I go to town to run errands I can see Mt. Rainier. Right now the mountains have snow tops so lovely. I really need a better camera so I can get some pic.

Another change is that with Omni I have lost a total of 54lb and still dropping. I am super excited to feel better and look better. I am also taking more of the Omni vitamins and generally feeling better to include having less pain from my nerve damage.

I have been working hard on designing baby dresses and little things for my grands. This past week I went to a bazaar sold lots of little Christmas Angels. I am currently working on a soccerball afghan/hat set as well as new dress designs.




On a silly side check out these boxers I made for one of my sons. I plan on making adjustments and writing the pattern. These were not quite right but still turned out pretty cute huh.

Hopping to become a better blogger for the new year and start offering some free patterns. I am working on an adult hat pattern now that will be available sometime this month. Just a basic hat but made for myself and loving the results. With a little sunshine I will be getting some pictures today.
