Hey y’all! I’ve got several crochet finishes, a little sewing, & a steam punkin’ to share with y’all this week. No new fabric or yarn, so my craft diet is going well. Too bad I can’t do that well with a personal diet! Haha! Hope y’all enjoy the podcast & the show notes are linked below.

Not much to update here except that October was a stinky month for me! Between the hurricane, family issues, & thyroid meds changing it’s been a challenge. I’m looking forward to better things in November. Also, there’s something weird going on with my lights, it’s a little spooky!

I shared a couple of older finishes, but one was not yarn related. The “scarflace” I shared is just a continuous chain looped with the ends wrapped. There isn’t a blog post for it, but there is one for the earrings I shared. : )

- Alicorn Shawl, from Expression Fiber Arts, using Darn Good Yarn Sport Weight Silk in Popsicle & Carribean Current
- Snowberries Luxurious Winter Scarf, from Kirsten Holloway Designs, using Mandala in Sphinx

I released my new crochet pattern, the Bumps & Scales Cowl, on Halloween. There’s even a printable PDF & chart just because I want to share the love! You can also find a video tutorial on my YouTube channel – your welcome! : D
Timestamp 18:20 ~ Crocheted Pumpkins ~>
The crocheted pumpkins I shared were such a fun make! Links to the pattern & my interview with Cynthia Banessa {the designer} are below.

Not much sewing went on since the last podcast. I wasn’t able to get my bags sewn & shop opened because of stinky stuff in October. I’m hoping to have it up by the end of the weekend, but we’ll see!
I shared my finished seasonal tree banner, which was the only thing I sewed besides a messed up pouch! You can learn more about it here. I’m hanging the banner from my branch weaving I made last year.
I joined the Geeky Stitching Club & I shared what I got for November.
I’ve joined the Tillalili Fat Quarter Club for 2019. I think the sign ups are closed now, but you can check out the website still. I found out about it by watching Yvette Rene on YouTube.

Even though Halloween has past, I had to share the pumpkin my drafting class made. He’s a “steam punkin'” : )
I talked a little bit about what’s coming up this month. My final ornament for the Merry Christmas Sew-Along comes out on November 12th. Check out the link for more info!
There’s also an ornament blog hop coming up & of course, Black Friday!
Hope y’all enjoyed the podcast! If you see something missing you’d like a link for, just let me know. : )
