Pasadena

This past Thursday, Tim and I went to Pasadena to take a look at the Norton Simon Museum and Old Pasadena. The museum was beautiful and was filled with inspiring works of art. Old Pasadena, as usual, was lively and had tons of great food. 

I've always loved museums. They're so quiet and calm. It gives me a time to think and just sit in the thoughts of people who lived so long ago. I always find it interesting that something so different can be so inspirational to so many people. This keeps me going with my shop and my knitting. I believe that the creativity of one person can affect someone else deeply, and that's my dream. 

The First Package

Today I shipped out my first package (hooray!). It was a knit tank top going all the way to PA. Thinking about how someone so far will be wearing what I made is a bit mind-boggling. Hopefully it gets there quickly and safely. 

New Beginnings

          The year 2014 has definitely been a year of new beginnings, and now that spring is (somewhat) around the corner, I can't wait for what life has in store for me. To celebrate new beginnings, I updated my shop with a new listing, a springtime scarf. Inspired by sun rays and soft spring meadows, this 100% cotton scarf is soft, silky, and warm. Perfect for springtime sunshine and April showers. There's one ready to ship scarf listed and a listing for a made-to-order spring scarf in a spring-time color of your choice. Enjoy!

I'm Stuck, But I Have So Much To Do

I'm currently designing a new beanie for my shop, but I ran out of yarn. Very big bummer. But on the bright side (literally), I'm knitting up a new, bright cotton scarf for the upcoming spring months. It's super soft and silky, with a lovely shine and will be up on the shop (hopefully) by tomorrow or so. I also ordered a bunch of new yarn. Yarn is definitely a non-guilty pleasure I attempt to take part of every month or so. The feeling of euphoria that comes with a new delivery can't be beat. 

I'm also ordering some business cards for myself so I can start giving it out to try to build a name for myself. There's only one item in the shop right now, but I want to start getting my name out as soon as possible. It's a bit scary doing this, but I've already decided to give it my all.
