This week brings a quick knit pattern, with simple crochet edging! The Chinese Waves Pouch is super simple, and a great “purse project” – small enough to keep in your bag for those quiet waiting room moments… and great for keeping your purse or bag organized when it’s all done! The thick fabric keeps even delicate items safe and secure.
Brrr! I don’t know what the weather is like where you are, but here in the American Midwest, winter has finally hit. Lots of snow and bitter temps that make wearing your robe all day seem like a really good idea. Even the kids are feeling it, so let’s do something to keep their cute little limbs toasty warm, eh? And bonus – this is a great stash buster, using only about 80 yards each of two different skeins!
Today’s free pattern is one I came up with a while back – when my middle child started taking a lunch to school! Rather than a plastic thermos, we went with a stainless steel water bottle. Good for the environment, it fit perfectly in his lunchbox and didn’t leak a bit. The one complaint we had was all the condensation. But that was an easy enough fix – with the Super Stripey Water Bottle Cozy!
E-readers and tablets have become the hot gifts to give and to get over the last couple of years. Last year, mr. moogly got the Kindle with e-ink as a yule gift. And then this year, someone else gifted him the Kindle Fire!
