Marvel Square #8 – Scarlet Witch
Hello again, and happy December! Wow, we've made it almost to the end of 2016. I usually lose track of time this time of year. I've had a running "to-do" list since about the beginning of November with "Finish Marvel Squares" on there, and all of a sudden, woah it's December. Thankfully, I have them … Continue reading Marvel Square #8 – Scarlet Witch
Granny Square Triangle Scarf – Free Pattern!
You might as well go to your local yarn store and buy a ton of yarn right now, because I can guarantee you will not be able to stop making these.

Marvel Graphghan Square #6 – Hawkeye
Funny story. I've been doing some serious reorganizing of my work space the past month.

I tried to stick as close as I possibly could to the traditional feel of the Hulk. Angry face. Black hair. … Continue reading Marvel Graphghan Square #4 – The Incredible Hulk

After a bit of a wait, I finally have the third square ready! It's the weapon of choice for everyone's favourite Norse God, Thor's Hammer.
