I think I may start this up again. Not completely talking about what just went down the runway, but also talking about what I've made lately. See, I love to craft. And, my cousin next to me in age passed away on June 30th, 2013 in a workplace accident with 18 of his coworkers. You probably saw it on the news. It has been a very difficult loss. One thing that has made me feel better is making things myself. He always believed in me far more than I ever have and he would be very proud of me for putting myself out there and trying. So, for him I will share with you what I have been making lately. Most of what I make is either for the friends & family of the people around me and then sometimes for the foster kids in Arizona. Sometimes, it is for myself. There's a certain satisfaction you get from knowing that you made your own armor that day.
So, while you can expect some fashion commentary, also expect to watch a hobbiest play with raw materials in their dining room. I leave you with this, a sweater i knitted for the son of a childhood friend from "Sprintime Baby Cardi" pattern on Ravelry :
