{shop update and a little sale!}

Good morning and happy weekend to you! I listed some fun new goodies in the shop for you yesterday!

Introducing the....

Pleated Clutch! Which just so happens to be the PERFECT size to fit your Kindle! I love happy accidents like that!

It's fully lined and padded. You don’t have to keep a Kindle in the pouch! The pleats open wide which allows for lots of stuff to fit in there. It would also double as a fun little clutch! Approx. 5 x 9" There are 5 available and ready to ship. ***This is a Keyka Lou Pattern.

and also, I'm having a little sale on my Crochet Newsboy Hats! 

With the 80 degree temps we've been having, I've given up all hope of winter so all crochet hats are 25% off in the shop with the code COZYCROCHET.

Happy Shopping!

{resolutions…learning a new skill}

Hi friends! Happy Wednesday to you! I am not great with resolutions, but I do love learning new things! Last year I re-taught myself to crochet. I learned the basics when I was about 10 years old, but never made anything until last year!

Over the last few months, curling up on the couch with a quilt and a skein of yarn has been one of my very favorite things to do! I have successfully mastered two items that I am in LOVE with!!!

The Urban Turban {pattern here}

and the Brimmed Beanie {pattern here}

Do you want to learn to crochet or knit this year??? If so, then I HIGHLY recommend checking out Tricoast Online. They have an AMAZING selection of DVD’s, downloads, and kits that make learning the skills of crochet and knit easy and so much fun!!!

They sent me this kit to review that helps to teach kids to crochet and the best part…the teaching is done by a little boy! How cool is that! I will definitely be using it to teach my son! I think it would be great for him to use something other than the DS to keep his hands busy! 

Head on over to Tri-Coast now because they are offering special holiday pricing! 20% off the whole store including their brand new ebook download!

Have fun learning your new skill! I can’t wait to hear all about what you’re making! I off to get more yarn and park myself on the couch today!
