swag, baby

I have to confess, I love the $1 section at Target. It's always changing & you can score some great stuff. Right now, it's all about organizing for the new year, so they have all this stuff called "Wash Day". I bought a belt hanger, two lint rollers and a sweater shaver, for a buck apiece! Also, a little earring tree, but really, the sweater shaver for a buck! Who can pass that up??


Also today, I finally gave Scout her Hanukkah present!


The photo really doesn't do the colors justice, though. It's a free kpixie pattern, using Southwest Trading Company's Karaoke. Isn't it beautiful yarn? It was dreamy to work with, too!

Also, while Vivienne was doing gymnastics today, I finished the first Boogie time, for Silas' birthday.

I think he is going to be sooo psyched!
I'm also going to copy Scout and half the other knitbloggers in the universe & make a cabled bag!

  • That's a beautiful scarf - don't you just love kpixie? That Scout sure is lucky. ;-)

  • Carole,

    Sorry to ask this way, but did you ever find the Yarn Swap Box after the move? Just curious.

  • I love Target's Dollar Spot :) They have some really cute things there sometimes, and if you buy something & it falls apart after using it twice...it was only a dollar. I'll have to look for the sweater shaver! Thanks for the tip!
