Last week, I had a technical problem on my blog and I didn’t get to share two finished projects that I’m pretty excited about. I’ve mentioned a few times that I’m the sponsor for Crochetlist‘s June charity challenge. I’m organizing a collection of pet blankets that will be donated to Bideawee for Adopt-A-Shelter-Cat month. I’ve [...]
