Backlit Canvas Art Do you have one project that you've been longing to do, but just haven't found the time yet? This is it for me. I call it my Backlit Canvas Art and the inspiration piece has been pinned in my "Crafts to try" Pinterest board for ages. My "pin"speration is an artist's piece made from metal that has hand cut flowers all over it. Its backlit by Christmas lights, and I pretty much love it! So I decided to give it a go and create my version. There are two main differences between the two: 1. 2.

batty dishcloth materials: Sugar 'n Cream, Grape size 6 straight needles BlackRayne Free patterns for reversible-cable scarves | In Stitches Yesterday, I started looking for patterns for scarves with reversible cables because I wanted to see how different designers handle the math. I’ve discovered that most people are designing them to look almost identical on both sides. One way is to rib the cables (k1, p1,k1, p2, k1, p1,k1 and cable every eight rows would be an example). Another way is to do put ribs between the cables that are equal width, and then cable the ribs. I’ve put together a list of URLs where you can find other bloggers who have posted free patterns for their reversible cable scarves.

11 Easy And Cute DIY Choker Necklace Tutorials In case you haven’t noticed, chokers are back in style in a big way – and no, this isn’t an old post from 1997. Chokers, AKA necklaces that sit snugly around your neck rather than resting against your collar bones or cleavage, are edgy, cool, and make a pretty big statement. Chokers were huge in the ’90s and early 2000s – think the wiry tattoo style or black velvet versions with a little charm – but like so many other ~classy~ accessories from that time, they fell off our radar for a while.
