So Simply Stephanie

Whew... we made it through the holidays. I was able to finish all but 1 Christmas project! (That item will instead be a birthday gift.) I had fun knitting several wearables... Caron X Pantone Knit Fair Isle  (free pattern) Sunset Hat (free pattern) Little Hearts Fair Isle Hat Copycat beanie (free pattern) and Wintered Wheat Mitts Rye Socks (free pattern) My Guys beanies (my pattern - hope to share here soon) And this adorable teddy bear for my middle son... Magic Loop Teddy  (free pattern) And here's the gift set I made for my mother-in-law... I'm blown away by the generosity of people willing to give away their patterns! Many of the items here were made using free patterns. Check out my Ravelry project page to see more items I've made from free (and paid) patterns: Stephanie's Projects . Happy knitting, sewing, and of course, Happy New Year! ~Stephanie I've joined the creative team at Tatiana's Corner on Etsy !

It's been awhile. I've been busy with normal family life, but I've also been knitting and sewing quite a bit lately. My sewing table is a mess... and I've definitely been spending way too much time on Ravelry ! I just signed up to help a pattern designer test a knit beanie with interesting colorwork. Several knit hats (and more) are ready for holiday gifts. I also have several beanies for sale in our Etsy shop :      For the holidays, I whipped up several drawstring bags /reusable gift bags (also great for cosmetics and toiletries when you're traveling) to sell.         ...and a few zipper pouches.   My friend & Etsy shop-mate created some lovely holiday themed handmade greeting cards , a pre-made scrapbook album , and gift tags .   *** Through the month of December, everything in our shop is 10% off!!!*** Merry Christmas ! ~Stephanie I've joined the creative team at Tatiana's Corner on Etsy !
