Sometimes, I see baby things and I just have to make them. I saw this little munchkin hat on ravelry and I had to make it for a friend of mine that is having a little boy. It’s so impractical but I love it so much. It would be a perfect newborn picture hat! I’m [...]

The weather has been typical Texas weather lately, pinging from hot to cold, wet to dry (although we can’t complain about days of dreary, rainy weather), so we have been spending whatever time we can outside. The playground, of course, is quite the destination. And apparently so is the liriope in our front yard. A [...]
