    Default page i worked on tonight

    wee hours of the night/morn. Can't sleep, had an idea and had to do it!

    Here's my page I did. I wanted to have something to show my favorite things to knit. (I'll do one for other crafts too later on) Instead of a traditional journalling block, i put together a booklet of my favorite, tried and true patterns used to make the items pictured on the page. Was a fun page to do, and the booklet of patterns afforded me a reprrieve from trying to find just the right words to describe this or that.

    you HAVE to find a little corner to slip the pic of you knitting on toothpicks...maybe on your scrap book page if not this page...
