I decided to revamp the look of this blog but I can't decide if I just didn't like the old one better. It may undergo some changes over the next few days.

I added a twitter feed too. I've had a twitter account FOREVER, before it became all popular. But I don't use it much except to read other people's updates. Maybe if I had a phone service that did fancy stuff like texting and posting pictures etc I would use it more. Anyway, I thought I would make one just craft themed to keep it separate.

In other news, I'm working on a circular shrug for myself. It's in acrylic because I figure with 3 kids I will probably end up washing it often, and it's in navy blue...mainly because I couldn't find purple like I wanted. I've done the ribbing and now I'm on to the decreasing and starting the main body, and here's where I'm stumped. I can't say I liked doing the mock rib on Abby's one, and I want to put something more interesting on the back. Only I can't decide what. I'm thinking maybe a saxon braid up the back?

I'm thinking about making my first shawl too. In the evenings there is one side of the couch that I usually end up sitting on that is right in the path of two AC vents and an overhead fan, and it is freezing, but if we turn them off the rest of the house gets hot. Any suggestions on shawl patterns? This is Florida so it doesn't need to be too heavy.
