Making a list...checking it twice...

Happy Holidays from ThirtyTwoTwentyKnits! Even though it feel far more like Spring time here in OKC, ThirtyTwoTwenty is decked out in Christmas Joy and the yarn is flying. With a special order list and a personal "to knit" list...it is probably a blessing that we got all the decor up pre-Thankgiving, because at this point it is all crochet, all the time.

The show at Sunnylane was a great success. It was the first time I used the Square trinket for my phone to be able to accept cards at the show. I got some fun special orders and sold lots of existing stock! And to top it all off, surrounded by lovely people all day long.

If you need anything yarny for your Christmas List...let me know and I can see what I have in stock or whip something up for you quickly.

Here are some fun projects I have completed recently:

Special Order Princess Crown Headband for Miss Parker! Based on the pattern by Alli over at www.allicrafts.blogspot.com (see her free pattern here).


 
Here is Miss Lylleigh's Ladybug Hat! I was shocked at how awesome this turned out considering I was going completely off of photos as inspiration (because I was finding pics I loved, but not patterns I loved...yay crochet!

 
Stop being so darling Miss Harley! In her pink and grey Special Order Sock Monkey Hat (again, done completely off of just looking at some photos of other hats I really liked...couldn't find a pattern I was in love with). Love this baby girl!

 
Little lady crocheted wrist warmers with a crossed double crochet pattern to add some interesting detail, black sparkly yarn (sooooo soft!), and lime green & hot pink buttons just for fun! I will post a pattern for these someday (but honestly, they are just crocheted rectangles or squares sewed up the side with a little hole left for the thumb). These are Indiana bound for someone special...shhhh Christmas present!

 
These little Mary Jane Bow Slippies are a ThirtyTwoTwenty Original Pattern as well and went promptly to Indiana for a brand new little one!


 
 
Here are her little feet rocking the slippies...stop being so CUTE!
 
 
 
 
Merry Christmas from our family to yours!
May you be blessed by the meaning of this season, surrounded by family, and snuggled in yarn!

Hello Blogging!

I am super excited about this new experience ... bear with me as I learn the world of blogging! I hope to post pics and patterns and even a few pieces that might be available to purchase on here. I am switching from having a traditional website and opting for a more bloggy situation. It seems more appropriate for what I am working towards.

I will start by sharing a few of my holiday creations!



While shopping with my mother-in-law, we found a similar product at a popular home decor store. Immediately my small flower loom flashed to mind and I knew I could duplicate these mini pieces of winter wear to adorn a not so simple anymore bottle of wine.
This was my own pattern...I will post it one day.



Found this pattern on Pinterest and made at least a million of them to give as Christmas gifts and Stocking Stuffers. I made the one pictured a little larger than the original pattern...Her pattern is here!




This is a variation of a pattern I found here

 (also allow me to say, this blog has DARLING free patterns).

I had to play with the stitch counts a bit to fit this specific mug -
I loved it so much I could hardly give it away.

I have another pattern that I created using this one as the basis...
...it uses only Double Crochets so it works up crazy quick!
