Hello, crafty friends!
Today I’m sharing my design team project for The Colorful Options Challenge—and this one is a dive into the stash for an oldie but a goodie.

Who doesn’t love the combination or Rosie and Bernie from Stamping Bella?! I took my inspiration from the pinks on the inspiration photo, with a little bit of Lavender in Bernie’s muzzle, mane, tail & corn. Some simple pencil coloring with a little splash from gel pens (the hearts & tights) for some fun.

Thanks for stopping by, and I can’t wait to see what you create this month.🩷💜🤍

Hello, and Happy New Year!

I am starting this year with a different craft than I usually post. I decided to knit up a cozy hat, modeled by my studio companion. He wears it more than I as this is where it rests when not in use.

The colors don’t show perfectly in the photo, but the yarn is a stormy mix of charcoal grey and deep midnight blue, with the faintest whisper of olive running through the strand. This serves as my design team contribution for the Colorful Options Challenge this January. Our color palette this month is blue, white & grey. I chose to play with the blue & a charcoal grey. Remember, any color version of the colors posted is fair game.

If you would like to make this hat, I used the pattern Après Beanie by Smeeny Made Wild on Ravelry, #13 circular needles, Malabrigo Rasta 303 Navegante, and Lovafur Luxe Faux Fur Pom Lurex Raccoon.

Thanks for stopping by, and I can’t wait to see what you create this month.🔵⚪️⚫️🌈
