Candy Candy Cookies 

December 3, 2017December 4, 2017 NantucketKnitterLeave a comment

Well, it's officially December. Which means for me, it's officially Christmas season! And today, I used that as an excuse to make my all time favorite Christmas cookies- they're a staple from my childhood- candy cane cookies. First off, make sure you have a super cute helper. Make a batch of red and white dough:… Continue reading Candy Candy Cookies

No Spend November

Making, not Buying

November 13, 2017November 12, 2017 NantucketKnitterLeave a comment

The winds have picked up on my little island the past couple of days and summer is well and truly behind us. New England can be funny in the fall - one day it's 70 degrees and humid, and the next your hands are numb. Magdalena and I take our two year old, rambunctious (but… Continue reading Making, not Buying

Magdalena’s Heart

Buy the pattern on Ravelry! What a labor of love this little pattern has been! Well, for the most part it kind of just came together. I was knitting a stocking for several someone specials and wanted them all to be different, so started designing charts for the third one. My daughter loved the hearts… Continue reading Magdalena’s Heart

Some Bumps in the No Spending Road

November 6, 2017November 6, 2017 NantucketKnitterLeave a comment

Me with a homemade fancy coffee I made with my milk frother I mentioned in my last post. So, the first couple of days of No Spend November were easy. November third was a bit hard. I knew it would be a tough challenge as I am a compulsive spender and I love takeout. And… Continue reading Some Bumps in the No Spending Road

No Spend November – It Begins

Well, it officially came and left. The first day of No Spend November. I just wanted to pop in and give an update on the challenge. I intended to post a couple days beforehand with some things I had done to prepare (yes, prepare!), but well, life. I love fancy coffees. My Instagram is full of coffee… Continue reading No Spend November – It Begins

It's time to take the plunge. Well, it will be in about a week and a half anyways! At least, it is time to put it out there that I am committing! I have decided, for the month of November, not to spend any money on anything that is absolutely not essential. With the holidays… Continue reading No Spend November

Mini Apple Pie Magic

August 30, 2017August 30, 2017 NantucketKnitterLeave a comment

With fall right around the corner (well, not really - more like a month away!) I have been thinking about apples. Apples, apples, and more apples! I love me a great baked apple, and these are one of my most absolute favorites. (Wow that's not a proper sentence at all.) What happens when you take… Continue reading Mini Apple Pie Magic

Dog loves stick. . Happy Valentine’s Day.
Slow and steady.
A #selfie just ‘cause I’m feeling good today.
#fiberuarychallenge day four - my current project is this guy! For some reason it’s been taking me forever - started him in December, but I’m slowly getting him done. . All he needs after his hat is his beard! His name is #svenscandinavian and he’s from a kit from @barrettwoolco.
#Fiberuary challenge day three! . This is the first #stuffedanimal I ever finished. I believe I had finished a few things before this but I have no idea where to find them or have any pics. . This was also the first thing I sold for profit! . The second pic is the most recent stuffed animal I’ve made and it’s safe to say, my #knitting skills have improved a bit!
Hi! My name is Natalie. I’ve been #knitting since I was in elementary school, though it’s only been in about the last ten years that I’ve seriously started working on the skill. . In that time I’ve taught myself how to make dolls and stuffed animals and sell those (and other fancy are things) at artisan fairs to help support myself and my #daughter, Magdalena. . When I’m not #knitting, I’m teaching #preschool, #running or working out, or reading. . I live in the wonderful, magical #island of #Nantucket. . (Ok sorry this was my third post today and I’m combining days one and two of #fiberuarychallenge so I don’t make it four posts.) . @fiberuarychallenge
Chilling on a Saturday. . I just found out about the #coffee crawl #passport. . If you present this at the participating coffee shops you get 10% off your coffee and a stamp. If you get six or more stamps you will be entered to win a gift card! . This is part of 1 Book 1 Island through the #Nantucket #Atheneum. Pretty cool!
