Three things you might be interested in:
1. Happy Honeymoon to Patti, who is offering all of her patterns at no charge between March 14-21 to celebrate. There are some really cute ones. Pop over and pick a few!
2. Miniature knitting jerseys wanted for the Tour de France! I think I like the yarnbombed bike idea better, but curious to see what they do with the jerseys.
3. How to sew a fabric lining into a handknit or crocheted bag. (And hey – we have the yarn and we have the fabric for you!)
Three ways to think outside the knitting and crocheting box:
1. A clock that knits as it ticks.
2. Taking knitting-in-a-rocking-chair to a whole new level.
3. A crochet yarn-bombing that goes to massive lengths. What a colorful sight!
Three things that I’m just not sure about.
1. Over-sized knitted stools. Not sure how comfortable those would be around the house.
2. A scarf that just might swallow you whole.
3. Knitted chicken jumpers. Although they’re pretty cute.
Three easy-to-sew project holders:
3. Open-top yarn or accessory holder.
Three famous knitters:
1. Lucy (knitting herself some stripey socks).
2. Jack Bauer (but I think he only knits gun cozies).
3. Sam the Squirrel (he needs reading glasses. I can relate.)
Three other cute sewing projects I have put on my to-make list:
1. An easy way to dress up store-bought towels and washcloths. Make sure you prewash both the towels and the fabric before sewing.
2. Purse organizer, knitting accessory organizer, car organizer – limitless uses.
3. Low maintenance kittens. No vet bills, no litter boxes, no meowing in the middle of the night.

HAHAHAHA, the Jack Bauer gun cozy!
I liked the squirrel best. He can come knit for me anytime.
Is there a pattern for a gun cozy?
Thanks for the contest!
After all, chickens like to be stylish too!
Had fun reading all of the fun “threes”!
Love loopy ewe. Hope to visit but I. The meantime so e yarn would be fun!
Love Pinterest. Thanks so much for the giveaway:-)
I think the chicken jumpers are a stretch.
Loved the rocking chair ! Enjoyed reading & seeing the many different projects.
Love the rocking chair that knits!! If only I had a nickel – or, heck, even a penny might work – for every time I’ve been knitting in public and somebody, usually a 30-something young man, laments to me that knitting is a dying art.
Enjoyed reading this blog update!
So much stuff crammed into one post…my mind is blown!!!
What a fun blog post!
Love all the links in your post. I’ll definitely be referring back to this to try out a few. Thanks so much.
Fun post! Thanks!
Thanks for the linkies. What fun.
Another good posting.
Fun information! Thanks for sharing!
Nice start to Spring!
Love the little Tour De France sweaters and the lovely drawstring bags!
Those towels are adorable! I hate my plain white ones and am thinking this would be a perfect upgrade.
Your blog posts always make Wednesdays a little brighter – thanks!
Fun to read….great pics! Love Jack Bauer knitting a gun cozey! Ha!
Love your blog posts. I really like the chicken jumpers!
Those knitted jumpers for the hens are right up there with the knitted sweaters for the sheep. I love them! Thanks for sharing all these great links! Fun post… made me smile!
Fun Post! 🙂 The chickens made me giggle!
Sam the Squirrel is too cute!
Ahhhh–gotta love Pinterest!
Thanks for the list of interesting things to look at! May have to make a kitten.
Love Jack Bauer knitting!
I actually have chickens. I think I better start knitting them little jumpers!
Interesting stuff!
Three things I’m learning this year that could create even MORE stash (of various components/ingredients):
1 Weaving
2 Soap-making
3 Quilting
🙂
I have to say that knitting clock is super cool. If only I had uses for long knitted tubes.
Great post!!
Love the pic of Lucy knitting! Been toying with knitting a handbag and lining it—thanks for the inspiration.
Sounds trite, but I loved Lucy. I think she knit periodically on the show.
Loved the picture of the fancy chickens!
You’ve added more things to my to-knit (and now sew) list!
Any hints on the Loopy Q2 Challenge? I’m wanting to put in an order but am wondering whether I should wait . . . Btw, I did finish my Q4 2013 challenge, but just not in time — I’m hoping to be better on the next challenge. 🙂
Loved all the ideas. Thanks for sharing! Happy spring tomorrow!!
Very fun post. I always liked Lucy and Ricky and now I know she was a knitter?!1
Love the chicken jumpers! So funny!
What a lot of great ideas! I love those towels and that super cute squirrel. 😀
What a fun and interesting podcast 🙂
So many great goodies! I wish someone would make that fabric box for me! Better yet – I WANT/YEARN/LUST after that rocking chair!!!!!
Fun. The gun cozy and squirrel are a riot
The chicken jumpers are too, too cute!
Great post, I enjoyed the “3’s”. I want a clock, I’m just geeky enough to think that is just way cool!!
