MONTHLY NEWSLETTER...

Blog Update...

Last month on the Blog, I announced the free Etsy drawing and posted a cute Koala Hat Pattern for kids (easily converted to adult too).  I've updated the categories, in the hopes that topics will be easier to find.  I have also added a static page for loom knitters, called the Loom Knitting Glossary.  To help with following patterns on this blog.  Just look for the tab at the top of every page under the header picture.  To start this month out right, you'll find a free football themed beer cozy pattern at the bottom of this newsletter!

Last month I published several patterns on the Etsy store.  My latest patterns include an iPad/Tablet Cover/sleeve, Holiday Wine Bottle Covers (To give as a gift or to keep) and a new pocketbook pattern.  I hope to keep adding new patterns to the store each week so check back often.  To make it easier for you I've installed a mini Etsy Store button on the right of this blog post.  Please let me know by email if there is a special pattern you would like to see on the blog or in the store!
