Love Rocks!

I LOVE Valentine's day! Not just cause I love "Love"... but cause I love RED! And Fuschia!

And sometimes even pink...

So I love to see so many get into it!

To kick it off... here's the cuuuuutest knit scarf from Vicki Howell (the knitter with the cutest haircut)!

This pattern is on her blog and it seems easy enough! I'd like to try and whip one out before the big V-day... (it's also our anniversary week!)

Ah... love...

Lion Brand Lavish Booties

Well... as usual, I started another project in the middle of trying to power through the Berroco sweater wrap.

Two friends have recently had lil girls and another friend is due in a couple of months...

And since I have a ton of Lion Babysoft in Baby Pink Pompadour, I thought I'd bust out a few of these baby booties.

This pattern is soooooo easy and it works pretty fast since these are teeny-tiny!

And I'm always glad to learn somethin' new.

I had no idea how to cast-on after an existing row and I learned by learnin' how to "Cable Cast on".

Anyway...

October - Breast Cancer Awareness Month

I LOVE October...Not only is it my Birthday (which means about a week or two of non-stop partying) but it's also BCA Month!!! Which means EVERYTHING is Think Pink! From pink cosmetics to pink clothes, it's all about pink!

Years ago, I'd randomly bought myself a Lion Brand Crochet for the Cure kit, which wasn't very pricey and included: a skein of pretty pink yarn, a cute pink crochet hook, a cute pink yarn needle and the pattern for a scarf.

I made that scarf for everyone! It was soooo easy and so cute!

That kit is now tucked away somewhere in storage but here are some other ideas for BCA Month!
