Picture a Day

Very scanty monokini I made last year. I loved making it though. I don't remember the yarn I used but it was stretchy. This is the first summer in years I haven't done crochet bikinis.

Me, circa 10th grade. Loved that top!

Getting the boogie woogie going

Mom bought me two Craftsy.com classes last night, and I'm looking forward to taking them. Here are the links. Lace Shawl Design and How to Say It: Pattern Writing for Knitters I'm really looking forward to working on them and improving my skills! So far, I have started Pattern Writing and printed the papers for it-its like a book! Lots of information, very well worth the cost!

I plan to work on A New Leaf today, as well as possibly start my embroidery project, I need to make a basic sketch for it though. I may do the nude figure embroidery too. But I am running short of things to embroider on so not sure about all that.

What are you working on? When was the last time you took a class related to craft?

I want to start by thanking Whitney for allowing me to be a contributor to her blog.

I'm not much of a writer but I love textiles so hopefully I will still be able to let my love for these arts show.

I am a SAHM with a 4 year old and husband and we live in Sweden.
I usually have a million projects going at once. Right now I am mainly knitting. I am working on 12 shawls in 2012 (3 on the needles - 5 done), a pair of socks, a sweater for Biscuit and a few other little projects. I also spin, weave, make bobbinlace, sew and crochet when forced. I recently started dabbling in circular sock knitting machines.

Grandma's House. This is a photo of a painting I did that just kind of ended up reminiscent of the farm my grandma had!

And now introducing....

Miss Knitted Kharpern to my blog! We are going to start blogging together, we're both artists and crafters and love to share our knowledge.
