Patience

Patience is a virtue that you, dear readers, have had!
Thank you for your patience! Here's what I've been up to lately...

TODAY... I shipped the projects for Book 5.  The book title has not yet been revealed but the book will likely be released in summer.

The Cover of Book FOUR is now up on Amazon (Have I shown it to you yet?)

Go Crochet! Skillbuilder: 30 Crochet-in-a-Day projects

I'm developing another online class, so hopefully that will be a "go" in 2014.

Now that I just shipped book 5, I need to clean my office, sort all my 2013 receipts and check-stubs and in general, get my bookkeeping in order.

My goals for 2014 are narrowing greatly.  I'll be working on the magazine, the tv show and efforts related to those two things mostly.

On a personal note, I'm going to train to run a half-marathon in 2014 and work to get the kitten to cuddle with me.... (she's not a cuddler...)

What are your plans for 2014?

The BEST Crocheted Hat Ever

Now that we are into our second day of shoveling and deicing the cars... I'm supremely grateful for the BEST crocheted hat EVER.

The Driftwood Cap. 
It's warm, it stretches, it stays on, and I can (and have) made one for everyone in the family.

Get the pattern HERE. Dive into your stash and have one made by tonight. 238 of them have been made and shared on Ravelry with rave reviews.
