Todays Internet Pattern discovery: EASY AND Pretty

Dear Penelopes,

HELLO!!!!
Here I am talking to all of you again, after a while away from Blogging. I have been pretty bussy latelly, working in my usual work during day and knitting during nights.

I have been browsing the internet also, and (as you may see) I have found lots of interesting things to share and do and learnt a lot!

It is incredible how one grows in knitting and reading patterns if you just knit and knit. A good way too for keeping a away from cigarretts, too... as I still have not quitted though I have tried (not too much if I want to be honest... I did quit some years ago... and for 6 YEARS!!!!! I still do not know WHY I returned to this horrible habbit. So: Yes, a good way to keep my hands in something a little bit more useful than an unhealthy cigarrette.


One thing I love doing is "collecting" nice, quick, different and colorful patterns to use my yarn leftovers with!!!! Today I am happily sharing this with you all, hope you love them!

I generally use them when I need to drive my attention away from a big proyect and see something finished quickly. So I choose funny and colorful left over yarns and start knitting either flowers, tea cozies, pencil cases (as the ones below), pot holders, etc.

Today I am starting a new section in my blog... something like an INTERNET PATTERN DISCOVERY section... my today INTERNET discovery to share with you is below!!! Enjoy. I took this pattern from a Blog I love:

I will happily receive any pattern (remember: quick and easy) you might want to send me and will choose one per day to surprise me all)
