Wait. A Thursday Picks of the Week you ask? Well, guys, I’m taking a good ole actual vacation starting tomorrow.

Picks of the Week
It’s been a week of rearranging and hardcore weeding my craft room. I have so many craft supplies that I know could be put to better use by my teacher and librarian friends this coming fall that it was high time to put my own librarian skills to use and thoughtfully make my supply stash smaller.

Picks of the Week
It’s so fascinating to assemble my weekly picks every Friday and see what trends intersect – seeing them in collage like this often reveals trends I hadn’t even realized I kept seeing.

I love the color palette formed by this week’s picks collage! The mints and the pinks and the greys and the creams – the brights juxtaposed with the subtler tones make such a good combo.

I had a busy week launching the Hands Occupied pattern shop, so while I’m off relaxing, you should try one of these great project ideas this weekend!
Knit in Public Day Recap
I’ve never met a Worldwide Knit in Public Day I didn’t like. For one, it affords me lots of opportunities to take fun pictures of my favorite thing, knitting. For another, it’s a great excuse to hang out with friends for an extended group session, and – added bonus – WWKIP meetups are usually outdoors. Here’s a run-down of the action at Saturday’s Chicago meetup on Worldwide Knit in Public Day.
Picks of the Week
Man, tassels were totally trending this week in the blog world. I found a range of tassel DIY ideas to share with you guys, including home décor items and accessories. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again – this is such an inspiring time of year to rethink your approach to yarn crafting! And isn’t it fun to try something new?
