Busy, Busy Week: Crochet Progress, Family Moments, and Simple Joys
This has been one of those busy, busy weeks where I feel pulled in many directions, yet somehow find comfort in the rhythm of everyday life. Between family moments, errands, and crochet, my days have been full in the best kind of way.
Early in the week, I worked on flower motifs that are slowly becoming part of a larger project. These little blossoms seem to stitch themselves when I have a spare minute or two, and watching them multiply always makes me smile. Even when I think I do not have time to crochet, those small stitches remind me that progress is made one loop at a time.
We also had a family gathering that brought laughter and stories around the dinner table. I cherish these moments because they remind me of what matters most.. connection and time spent with loved ones. The boys played in the yard while the adults visited, and watching them all chase after each other felt like the kind of carefree joy that warms your heart.
You can find the pattern at CuteandKaboodle.

One afternoon, I ran errands with my mother-in-law, and as always, she kept me laughing with her stories. She has a wonderful way of seeing beauty in the small things, and that perspective always seems to soothe my soul. On the drive home, I found myself reflecting on how grateful I am for family, for support, and for simple moments that make life rich.
Although this has been a busy week, I have also found comfort in the simple routines of life. Picking up my hook, sipping a warm drink, and watching the boys play in the evenings feels like peace itself. Busy weeks remind me that life is a mix of activity and stillness, and when I allow myself to appreciate both, I find joy in even the smallest moments.

I also wanted to share my little knitting progress... I know it's not much, but I am proud of myself lol. I also wanted to share my hat photo displays. These are Styrofoam balls covered in paper mache and then covered in Mod Podge. I then used wooden dowels and a base to give different heights.



You've done great things Kim :)for me knitting is not difficult but I hate to do it. :) Your colours look great
ReplyDeleteI've been in with you in the yarn bomb and your bomb is so amazing <3 . I love the way your wreath looks at the lion.
Hope a lot of people get aware of our yarn bombing campain and why it was done.
Have a great sunny sunday.
greetings from Germany
Thanks Dorthe for stopping by. I was wondering what part of Germany are you from? My mother-in-law is from Austria, she lives next door and was over here earlier talking crochet with me. She has been crocheting from the time she was young but has a hard time trying to teach me...That is one of the reasons I wanted to learn so when she tells me something I understand her better :)
