It might not look like much but this little hat is the first thing I've actually been excited to knit in 4mo. I'm excited to have My Little wear it once we get enough snow to play in.

About a month ago I tried to give some of my knitting away and no one wanted it. Ever since then I haven't wanted to knit anymore. I just can't seem to work up the desire to pick up my needles. How long do you think this knitting slump will last?

I'm doing my first craft fair this weekend, and I'm not going to lie, I'm nervous. I'm worried it'll look amateur (dumb, because I was a literal event decorator/florist for 2 years, I know how to make things look good) or that my things will not be good enough (lots of heart but maybe not skill?). Its all knit & crochet and I'm really doing it to just make room to make more, but what if I'm not good enough?

I saw a sewing pattern kinda like this nessie so I of course had to make a knitted one. Which then became 2. Then 3. Then 12. Then 20...

Honestly, I'm not sure why I thought I'd only make a few...

So after all the love my original post got I think I need to add a few things.

Here's the pattern if you're crafty https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/cthulhu-hat-3

I am open to selling these or making a new one if I don't have the current color you're wanting. Go to https://www.facebook.com/knitsyknots/ or click the link below. I've got what I have currently made listed and if what you're wanting isn't there then PM me & we'll talk about other colors.

Thanks everyone for liking weird stuff as much as I do!

I've made so many of these Cthulhu hats and they don't seem to be as popular as I thought they would be. Please internet validate my love of these things... I have so many...

So - I've had this idea for a while now that I could take knit sweaters & scarves & such and take them apart & reuse the yarn to make cool stuff. But I don't know, would that even be worth the time & money?

It took me for-ev-er but I've finally finished this guy & its a beast! Its so big I could only get a picture by putting it on my wall. I love the color & texture & ruffle & the whole thing.

My home might not be clean because of a little gremlin but my bed sure looks nice. I knitted & sewed these pillows to compliment my bedspread & I love them. As my husband likes to say "hexagons are the best agons."

I love this yarn. Super soft and just amazing colors. Hopefully I can get a pair of mittens to match this hat for my kiddo.

I freaking love this little clutch. Perfection.

My husband made me this sign a year ago and I'm finally using it. With just a...few...of the things I've already knitted this year.
