Creative Journeys

A blog to track my crafting journeys. Right now I am stuck on knitting, especially socks. I also enjoy scrapbooking, cross-stich, beading, and trying anything new.

Yarn Find


I went to my LYS, The Technicolor Sheep to see the new store and found that I had to buy Mason Dixon Knitting. I alos found some really pretty wool in the clearence bin. It is called Lana D'Oro by Cascade Yarn. It is 50% Superfine Alpaca/50% wool. I thought I would make a striped felted bag of some sort for the winter.
