After making the Skylark in Wonderland wrap, I couldn’t help but notice that it would seam together to make a really fun skirt. I even had a feeling the angle of it would work nicely for plus size figures as well. So I dove into my Lion Brand Heartland stash and gave it a go. The results are a skirt I’m sure to wear quite frequently this fall!!

Well, SNAP was nothing short of amazing! I’ve been to crochet and knit conferences and trade shows, but this was my first blogger conference. The days were jam packed with networking and classes, and the nights were full of fun. I averaged 5 hours of sleep a night, and I was still full of energy. I think I may have been running on adrenaline and endorphins (there was a LOT of chocolate involved). I didn’t take as many pics as I planned on, I was just too engrossed in everything! I did take a few, though, so I’m posting most of them here and I’ll share a bit more about the conference through the pictures.
Before I start, I need to send out a big THANK YOU to Red Heart Yarns for making this trip possible for me. Just wait to see the fun we have in store for you in July!!!

Many people think that stitch markers are just for marking the rounds and repeats in your knit projects, but there are so many other uses. They can also be used to mark rounds and repeats in crochet (you must use stitch markers that open or split for crochet).

If you would like more details or to purchase any of the markers, just click on the images to go to the affiliate links where you can read more.
