The Next Half A Century


I'm back and ready to take this journey. I've done lots of reading, contemplating and visualizing since my last post. My problem........where to start. Being a crafter of everything and being immersed in the work force in a full time office job for the last 4 years has left my creative juices overflowing into to no man's land. I've realized my creative side cannot lie dormant any longer. It's time to take my creative soul and set off again on that adventure.
So......with a little family discussion and the fact that I have been knitting tons of toques for the numerous babies that have been born by family and friends, I've decided to make that my main focus. Toques, toques and more toques. Lots of different kinds of toques.
I will be selling them in the upcoming Christmas Arts and Craft Show. I've knit about 75 little toques so far. Some I have given for gifts, a few I've sold and the rest are tucked away until they find new homes.
Most of the toques I make now are my own design and patterns. I start, then I finish. I never quite know how they will end up. I'll be posting some of them over the next few days. I'm hoping to have some kits and patterns to sell in the future but for now I'll just be knitting up new little friends for new homes..........

Jan 18, 2009 First Post Ever

Welcome to my first Blog. With the help of my son, Liam I'm all signed up. I took the first step of many more to come. My goal is to have my own business and to sell my products on line for the 2009 Christmas season. So I need to get busy.

I thought I'd add a picture of the Christmas present I made this year for my niece Nova. She's our shining star.

I wasn't really intending starting my Blog until a little later on in February so I'm a little unprepared. The time was just right and we just did it.....that's my new motto actually......JUST DO IT....

I'll do some homework this week and make the second post a little more interesting.

I love all the blogs I've read, mostly artsy ones and they are all so inspiring. I will strive to do that too.
