it's that time of year. actually, here in Missouri it's both... one day super pretty and the next day FFFreezing. either way, i'm getting in the mood for winter accessories... big time! Here are a few favorite things...
(i DIE for the little stone on the ring finger!)
and here are my handmade gloves from last year...
maybe i will make a new pair this year?
ooooh and i'm almost finished with my wreath project that i mentioned a few weeks back. yayy! XO. elsie

The arm warmer/glove tutorial on the RVA-blog kickstarted a knitting frenzy! So I'm into making mittens, scarfs and arm warmers now. I made lots of them. They make great gifts!

I can't wait to see your wreath! I have been obsessing about making one of these for ages now and can't wait to actually get all my supplies together to make it happen :)
