make:Spring

I have been posting all over facebook about this.  Tweeting too.  And I posted the graphic here on Tuesday, but I haven't really said a whole lot about it here on the blog.  Do you remember back in December when make:Tulsa teamed up with Ida Red for a make:Christmas?  If you were there then you know what a fantastic and fun time everyone had. 

This dynamic combo of people is at it again, just in tome for mother's day and big spring plans.  Do you need a last minute, unique and thoughtful mother's day gift?  We totally have you covered.  Do you need that awesome little accessory to complete your party/wedding/vacation outfit?  We have that too.  Baby shower gifts?  Yep.  And Ida Red has all the old fashioned candies and unique sodas you could want, not to mention TOMS.  So really, if you are in the Tulsa area, you need to come by and see us.
Like the graphic says, we will be there from 1pm to 6pm. All of the handmade artists listed above will be set up at the back of the shop, eager to help you find what you are looking for. Come and say hello and introduce yourself to us. We absolutely love to meet new people.


I hope to see you there!

Great post, Somer! I'm so pumped about this show. I can't wait to see you! I'll let you know by tonight if I'll be off tomorrow so we can meet up for lunch or coffee.
Oooh that sounds like a lot of fun! I wish I lived closer so I could go! :)

Ridiculously Easy 3x3 hat

So I was on my way out the door to the St. Louis Cardinals game a couple nights ago when I realized I didn't have any purse size knitting on hand. I grabbed a ball of bernat chunky and a pair of size 10 16" circs out of my travel bag and stuffed them into my purse to contemplate at the game. I wanted something so super easy that by the time the game started I wouldn't have to think about it. I feel almost silly sharing this pattern, but I figured why not. So here is the hat: I don't really intend to turn up the edge to make a brim, but my model had trouble keeping it on otherwise. Its really stretchy and should fit almost any adult head. Its long enough to cover your ears, so if you really want a brim, go ahead and flip up the edge. Ok, here goes the pattern: Ridiculously Easy 3x3 Hat Yarn: I used Bernat Chunky Needles: Size 10 16" Circs or preferred method of knitting in the round CO 60 stitches and join for knitting in the round. Work in 3x3 rib for 7 inche

The Illy Cowl & Pattern

I was inspired by the fabulous Ilene of Much Love, Illy and her love for mustard colored accent pieces, so when she very patiently dealt with my first blog advertising endeavor, I decided to send her a little something.  I had some designs floating around in my head, but this one spoke to me as really being her style, so the Illy Cowl was born.  (picture stolen from Ilene, with her permission of course)  Here's a couple close-ups.  It's an easy, fairly open lace-work pattern that looks far more complicated than it actually is.  It's also lightweight and comfortable on.    I played around and took some pics before I mailed it off.  Last week I worked on a purple version, which I inadvertently made wider than the original.  (Nothing like screwing up your own pattern, huh?)  I forgot that I only put one repeat of garter rows between the lace repeats, oh well.  The mix up caused me to run out of yarn in the middle of THE VERY LAST ROW.  Sooooo frustrating!  And it was during

GIVEAWAY!!!

As many of you know, I love working with hand dyed yarn.  I especially love Farm Girl Fiber yarn!  Bridgette has an eye for color and has a lot of fun with what she does.  That is why I am so super thrilled that Farm Girl Fiber is sponsoring this giveaway in honor of my opening an etsy shop!   Before the goods, a recap:  I made this Acorn Head hooded cowl for myself on Christmas this year.  I've known pretty much since I bought the yarn exactly what it was going to be, I just had to find time to do it.  This cowl was out of my FGF birthday yarn!  You can't tell in the picture, but it has just this hind of sparkle to it.  Love! I made 2 of these for two different swaps and I really wish I had made and kept one for myself while she still had the yarn!  It was so super soft and super bulky and fantastic!  Sometimes Farm Girl Fiber has very limited lots of things, so if you find something you love, you really need to snatch it up.  My whole Monday night knitting group went mad ov
