So ever since Morning Toast put the idea in my head that I should sell these things, I’ve been trying to make the perfect DS Sock. This weekend I went a wee bit crazy with the crocheting for 2 reasons. One, the hubby wanted to bring home something for me to say thank [...]

So here is my first attempt at making a deliberate thing with crochet:

I say deliberate because that bracelet I made [...]

I have a game I like to play with Alex (although he seems to be an unwilling participant). If he gets a distant look in his eye, I’ll say “what are you thinking about right at this instant?” This game only works with really honest dudes, like him. And I usually get [...]
