I already have a love for all things dessert, and this is especially true for cupcakes. So when you combine that love with my love of knitting – well, you can imagine.

I’m working on some cupcakes with different colors, sprinkles, etc. in the coming weeks, so keep an eye out. In the mean time, [...]

March of the Penguin

By Annie
I’ve recently finished a whole lot of hats, so you can expect a lot of new-hat-posts in the coming days. I really like this one, because my favorite animal is the penguin.

I’m really enjoying hat season so far. I just finished up another one: a pig!

Scarf Season: The First

By Annie

It’s huge and warm and fluffy. I remember it took me sooooo long to finish it, but when I [...]
