Last night was the Stitch n Bitch anniversary party! 8 years of stitchin' and bitchin'. The group always has a grab bag scarf swap the night of the party, so I made a chunky reversible cable cowl to trade. My goal was to make something that would match just about anyone's winter coat.
The bag I picked didn't have a scarf, but instead had hand-stitched paper cards with scarf wearing snowmen! Aren't they fantastic? These were made by my friend Joanna. Look at their belly buttons! She sells her cards here on her Etsy shop.
We had such a great time. Everyone brought food and yarn and scarves.
Members all received a shrinky dink blimp pin too! Akron Stitch n Bitch rules!
Last week I made a Regina hat for a friend's relative under going chemotherapy. Everything about the pattern is superb- it adapts to fit any yarn weight and head size, the construction is clever and interesting, and the finished hat is flattering to everyone! I used less than a skein of LB Cotton Ease to make it. Boo yah!

Looks like you ladies had a great time! Wish I could have been there, but sick baby took priority. Next week, though, for sure! And I LOVE the snowmen! A-freakin'-dorable!
We missed you! I will make sure you get your blimp pin!
Thanks for showing my cards. I'm glad you like them :)
I have chosen you for a versatile blog award, please head over to my blog for the details. Nicky
