Current Projects

I finished knitting a swatch a couple days ago for "Ribbons Hat" - an awareness cap that I need to block then send over to KnitPicks to see if it is something they'd like to put in their design program.

Last night I finished up the "Cooling Eye Mask". I need to test the cooling part of the concept and block it, then I'll figure out what to do with it. My goal with this is pretty self-serving... my new meds caused terrible eye strain and I would get THE worst headaches RIGHT behind my eyes. This was created to help with that. Did you know that dried corn, when put in the freezer for a bit, stay cool for a long time? Yeah, me neither! Once that's checked out and photographed I'll send it over to the testing group to make sure my scribbles are right.

So now that those are finished, I am looking at my sketch book for the next thing on my list.

I have a completed design of "Sweet Summertime" - a crochet little girl top and I would like to also design it up in knit. That goes with my ultimate goal, of offering the same patterns in both knit and crochet (or at least similar patterns).

Besides "Sweet Summertime", I am also almost finished crocheting a "Quilty Baby Blanket" that I want to offer in knit also, as well as a cable sweater idea that I want to do in both but right now I've just been swatching in my head!
