Ohmy....could it really be?  My first blog post?  


Holy cats I've thought about blogging a million and a half times.  I have a reasonably quiet drive to work and along the way I think about what I've read in other blogs and what I would like to share in my own.  My life is not that exciting but I find that just the process of identifying what makes us happy makes us all the more happy.  So I hope that focusing on those things, the little things in life, will add to my peace of mind.  


I've finally finished my latest and largest crochet project yet.  This one involved a bit of sewing, which I was not happy about.  All in all it turned out lovely.  I am so so so happy with this bag, and have such a sense of fulfillment to have completed this.  
















The pattern can be found here and is very appropriate for beginners or experienced crocheters.

    1. Thanks for the luv! I used Noro Silk Garden in a couple different colorways. It went really fast since I didn't have to change colors every round!
