I was able to acquire a large bag of goodies that belonged to one of my clients. She was a client before my beauty shop became the She Shed .
I also made my first ever purchase from Knit Picks.
Enjoy 😉
Crazy Days of Summer!
Well the heat is here. Not loving it, lol. I am having to get up much earlier to go walking, also not loving it, haha.
However, we have a new member of the family! Meet, Cerberus. He is a 5 year old Border Pit, Border Collie and Pit mix.
What a sweet lovable boy he is! And between him and Duke I am being more motivated to walk everyday!
I picked up Cerberus this last weekend while on a trip to attend the Crochet/Knit Addicts of North Texas Facebook Group monthly meeting. It just happened to be on the same day as World Wide Knit/Crochet in Public Day!
We had such a great meeting! Stay tuned for more on the next project we will be doing!
How is your summer going?
Gorgeous yarn in the Wild!
Took this gorgeous hank to the beach! Getting a little sun and fun in on the coast of Texas ☀️It’s a special color way dyed up for my YouTube channel by Daniel of PawPlyYarn 😍. Now where did I leave my hook?
May May be Productive?
I have several things on my needles and my hook to be finished in May!
Therefore I am hoping that May is a productive month. I was not sitting around in April. However I had a couple road trips which slowed down my production line a bit!
I talk more about some of it in this video 😊
I have another new pattern coming out with a collaboration, and I am so excited! But I can’t say more until the pattern is back from testers!
I am also working on some fantastic new tutorials for my YouTube channel and I can’t wait to see how they are received 😆
What are your plans for May?
Trade Days
Laela Martin of “The Stamping Ground”
I managed to get out and go to a local Trade Days event last week! It was almost completely outside, and despite being a bit windy and chilly, well attended.
I went specifically to see a friend of mine who lives close to me and is a fellow crafter! Her name is Laela, and she makes the most beautiful handmade cards! She is also a crocheter, and nomad crafter like me!
We had a great visit. I brought home a few of her cards too! I will show them in another video. Meanwhile, I hope you enjoy my little clip of her beautiful work.
Have fun today!
PRESENTING: My New Pattern! The Willow Arches Shawl ❣️
https://fiberflooziecrafts.com/product/willow-arches-shawl-pattern/
I am so excited to bring you my first design! This is my Willow Arches Shawl. I came up with this design after using one of these stitch patterns in my Be “Squared” Crochet A Long.
I made mine using Willow Yarns Denim Grace, a medium 4 weight acrylic wool blend. This is a lovely yarn to work with and worked up beautifully!

This is an advanced beginner pattern. I have tutorials for both left and right hand on my YouTube channel.

This has been such a fun process! With getting the feedback from the testers to seeing their photos of their shawls, to filming the tutorials!
I hope you enjoy it! ❤️
Baby It’s Cold And Let’s Catch Up!!
Well it’s been a hot minute since I posted. However I am not letting the grass grow under my feet over here! Haha!
I finished two hats….
I finished this cowl and am working on a tutorial for it.
The yarn for the cowl is a lovely cotton from Made In America Yarns. One of their lines called Florafil. It’s so light and fluffy for a bulky cotton! Love it.
The Be “Squared “ CAL is gaining speed! We have 11 squares under our belt now!
And here’s a sneak peak at my first go at designing a shawl!
It should be going out to testers soon! So exciting!!
Stay warm everyone! Spring is coming 😊
Silly Duke!
It’s cloudy and misty again today in Texas. Duke and I traipsed off on our walk anyway. He found himself in a predicament! Caught in the netting off the hay bales! He is so silly sometimes 😂🤣😂
2020 Planner Flip Through
I did a quick flip through of last year’s planner. Showing how I set it up and how I was using, and sometimes not using it. Enjoy!
New Start!
I managed to get a commissioned item last week! (Thanks to my daughter.) ❤️
Trying to get this hat done quickly, as it is a birthday surprise. However I am filming this as a tutorial, so be on the lookout for a video soon!
Have a great week everyone ❤️
