Yesterday I was challenged, by my son, to make 10 hats. Well I only got 5 adult hats done. I'm loving this new option for fall. These beauties only need poms and tags and they will be ready for market. These will be coming with me to my next three markets Locally Grown Showcase, Lucky Star Iowa, and Vintage & Made Fair.

Let's see if I can get 10 kids hats done today.

It's the perfect breezy summer day to work outside. I'm making a couple of these neutral cardigans to bring with me to my next two markets. We are only 2 weeks away from Good Makers Market and 3 weeks from The Geneva Market. Which market will I see you at?

It was a relaxing, slow morning drinking my coffee in a quiet kitchen. I listened to the wall clock tick as I knit on my newest pair of socks. Do you spy the newest granny cardigan in the background?
