I’m off on vacation with the family and finally have a second to post! YAY!
\nFirst, I have a new cowl pattern<\/a> for you! My sister asked me a few months ago if it was possible to make a knit m\u00f6bius… so I designed a cowl for her! The pattern repeat is Fawn’s Eyes<\/p>\n

\"img_9798-150x150_small2\"<\/p>\n

because my sister is a real-life Snow White.<\/p>\n

Animals approach her randomly.

\nLike that.

\n\"img_9805-e1373607205822_small\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I also designed the cowl to have a lacy-pointed trim, so I included a little photo tutorial about how to block it.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You can get it from Ravelry<\/a> or from my little pattern\/audiobook shoppe.<\/p>\n

<\/h2>\n

The other thing is give-aways!<\/h2>\n

I’ve started a special page over at CraftLit for any monthly give-aways<\/a> so if you bookmark it, you can check back and enter the running for things to win!<\/p>\n

This month the give-away is Andi Smith’s sock book Big Foot Knits<\/em><\/a>! You can hear Andi chat about it on CraftLit Episode 310<\/a>, out Friday, Aug 2, 2013.<\/p>\n

And the last little bit of goodness<\/strong> is the Cowgirl Hall of Fame Texas Caviar recipe<\/a>. Have I shown you this before?! It’s this spectacularly easy salsa thatt keeps well, improves with age, and is great with chips or (flat, wide, scoop-able) veggies.<\/p>\n

And requires ZERO heat! Great for summer!<\/p>\n

This is a bean-based salsa which means PROTEIN! After losing 14 lbs on my latest low-carb (easier since gluten-free) jaunt, I’m very happy to get more protein.<\/p>\n

\"Happy

Happy Thing 1<\/p><\/div>\n

And that’s it for now! Hope your summer is a happy one, too!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
