Reader I have just published my next animal sock pattern. I wanted to get it out before the crazy summer schedule starts. My summer is filling up fast, how about yours? I'll be helping at 2 camps this year, and spending lots of time with family. Were you hoping the next pattern would be the Dinos? I hope so. These are so fun. I debated with myself for awhile on what colors to choose. I went with dark green and magenta. It gave me a lot of 90's kids nostalgia feelings. I have already worn these out and about already, even to jury duty, and they defiantly bring a smile to my face. Where to purchaseThis pattern is in my Ravelry Shop, you can follow the link to check them out. Thanks for your support, Julia

Say hello to Hyacinth Scarf. Close up of the Hyacinth Scarf When I first started to work on this pattern all the way back in January I had all the plans to make it have the same texture as my Hyacinth Hat. With all the bad news my mind kept wandering and I kept forgetting to add the crossover row. I thought, "well if I'm...
Reader Designs by Diligence is 14 years old this week. I can hardly believe I have been creating things for you for that long. What a joy its been from my first design appearing in Crochetvolution to now. I wanted to celebrate by offering a free knitting pattern just for this week. Restful Hat In my quest for using up the yarn I have. I decided to use up some mini skeins. I also added a lace weight mohair, and the result was the softest 2 tone hat that I have thoroughly enjoyed wearing this...
