After bath time last night, my barely five year old Pixie brought me a skein of yarn and asked if I could teach her to knit. I think the kids know that the best way to delay bed time around here is with impromptu crafting. I also believe it was encouraged by our history reading yesterday …
HAPPY NEW YEAR! Wishing everyone a wonderful 2011 full of love, peace and a generous helping of crafty goodness! See everyone back here next week! Fondly, Kimara and Michelle
Luckily for us our holiday visitors came early. We picked up our son Adam at 8 a.m. Tuesday morning and Drew, Meghan and the Little Lady, joined us at noon on Wednesday. Needless to say, any of our last minute crafting went out the window! As a family we did not craft this week, so …
I was hoping to get a pattern up before the holidays for the sweet pea sleepers I made for the girl’s dolls. Unfortunately, it seems that all 12″ knit dolls are not the same.

Today Michelle and I have an article featured on The Magic Onions: Discovering Waldorf Column. We were thrilled that Donna thought to ask us, since we are such fans of The Magic Onions! Today we tackled the often touchy topic of receiving children’s gifts. Often our concept of appropriate toys can differ vastly from the gift givers …
{Look at how those adorable cheeks are filling in! I’m going back for a visit next week… can barely wait!} A couple of weeks ago I shared a pattern on Facebook that I fell in love with from Never Not Knitting. Then, I did something I very seldom do… I actually bought the pattern. There are so …
