Crafting On

The act of creating, in one form or another, preserves my sanity amongst the chaos of life. This explains why I always have more than one project guoing at a time as well as why my housework tends to fall behind. I enjoy seeing what others are working on and keeping calm with, too. What are you creating? What is keeping you going? Snap a picture or two, post it on your blog, on Instagram #craftingon and/or Flickr and then share it with the rest of us by leaving your link below.

Knitting in the early morning light. There is just something so magical about rising early, especially since I have never been an early riser. It's life-giving. It fills my cup until it runneth over pouring into those around me - those that need a joyful, rested mama. This is my new routine of self care. Gone are my late nights of knitting (or sewing/crafting/baking) that leave me with mistakes in my projects and tired/grumpy eyes in the morning. I now rise with the sun and follow a slow morning.

Oh and I am still happily knitting Baby F an army of play food. Working on a little lemon at the moment.

What are you working on? Happy creating!

He is! Whenever he sees me knitting now he says, "For baby! Mama almost done!" Then he gets so excited when I finish and instantly takes it over to his pots and pans.

I love the early morning - but so do my baby and toddler. And as much as I love being in their company I get so excited when they sleep in until 7 so I can greet them refreshed and calm.

Quick question, my life is about to slow down dramatically and I cannot wait to make knitting a part of my everyday again, where are you getting the patterns for the knitted food? So cute and my cuties would love them.

Ha! My kiddos are like (the old) me and sleep in. At least for now...

I linked to all the patterns on my ravelry page: https://www.ravelry.com/projects/FrontierDreams/b... Many of the patterns were free on ravelry and the others were from the book Tasty Knits. HTH!

Warmly,

Nicole
