Keeping Sane

This week is a really tough week for me. I am pretty sure that I am wearing all of my "hats" on top of each other this week. So I am feeling quite overwhelmed and on the verge of an attack of some sort at all times.

But.....fortunately, this came just at the right time to help me find some calm.

I've been up since 3:30 (after waking up to a cat puking up a hairball.nice.) knitting and writing and I remembered that Rhythm of the Home launched yesterday. I absolutely love it and cannot wait to sink my teeth into it fully.

My lovely photographer, Stacy had a big part in getting this new mag off it's feet. Go check out her two patterns!

So in the midst of all the craziness, I feel a bit of calm. Bravo Heather and Bernadette!

Teardrop Cowl

I originally designed this cowl pattern for Shivaya Naturals' "Taste of Shivaya" yarn club last winter. I am down making it available for all of you!
