Mon Petit Violon Pattern Store Feature

It was another busy weekend!  But it seems that every weekend is busy with a 10 month old.  This Saturday we went down to the Jersey Shore to visit with my parents.  On Sunday I went to Home Depot and picked out the veggies for my garden!  I got a tomato plant, two cucumber plants, a zucchini plant and seeds for sugar snap peas and beans.  I'm going to try to plant them tonight so that they are in before it rains for the next three days.

So, today is Monday and that means that I have another featured store!  Today's featured store is Mon Petit Violon.  This store is all crochet and knit designs that I love!

Take this for example. 

I love these booties!  I love the cable design and how the cables face away from each other and then follow around the ankle of the bootie.

There's also this pattern.  

Is it a poncho?  Is it a cape?  Is it a cowl?  Any way you see it, I love it.  It's a different design that you don't see every day, which is what makes it so unique!

And there's this little cutie.

I love this little sunhat!  It has a great shape and would be perfect for that little head to keep the sun off.  It's also sized up to adult sizes, so anyone can have one!

These patterns are great.  I love the simple look and lines of each design and the wonderful use of yarn!  There is something for everyone there, so go take a look!

Happy Monday!!!

Featured store - Lucky Sheep Knitter Bags

It's Monday again!  The weekend always goes so fast.  This one wasn't as crazy as Easter weekend, but it was still busy.  It was my niece's third birthday.  Happy birthday, Bella!

So it's Monday, and it's time for a new featured store.  Today's featured store is Lucky Sheep Knitter Bags.  I heart these bags.  I don't just heart them, I drool over them.  There are bags in all shapes and sizes and all are designed for the knitter.  There are big bags for your sweater and afghan projects and small bags for your socks.  There are needle bags and yarn bags and tote bags galore!  Each bag has a ton of compartments, too, to keep everything organized.  Not only that, but each bag is handmade from natural linen in great patterns (my favorite is the sheep, of course).

Take this bag for example...

It's a nice size bag that will hold a larger project.  It's 14x8.5x4 and would easily hold a few balls of yarn plus a lighter weight sweater project.  I love the drawstring for easy accessability.

Or there's this bag...

This is a BIG bag for those big projects.  This bag is 18.5x12.5x6.  As I said.  It's BIG!

And of course I love this...

Perfect for organizing knitting needles and crochet hooks.  It unfolds and everything fits inside!

These bags are so fun and I'm sure any knitter or crocheter would love to get one of these!

Well...Happy Monday!
