I inherited about 8 pounds of quality Toho bugle beads from a class student of mine who didn't realize what they were ordering from a bulk buy at Fire Mountain Gems. They are a gorgeous blue, and I've only recently started to create more patterns using them. Here's a sampling of the patterns so far:
When I first heard the quote "To know a thing is to see it again for the first time..." (don't remember who said it), I thought it was a weird sentiment. To know a thing, but to see it for the first time? I didn't get it. But over the last few weeks that idea has come back to me over and over. This...
When I'm not boozing, worshiping Satan, snorting coke, or doing my nails, I model hats: Craft Magazine Of course I gotta give a link to one shot that shows of some arty-poo. Oh, I also model shawls and stuff: www.knitgrrl.com Here at Casa Vendetta, we're all knitwear models it seems -- even...
All of these crochet patterns are available at the Suncatcher Eyes website. Enjoy!

I've been published! Here's why I've been so lazy about finishing up my 9-5 socks. At least... pre move. Let me introduce you to Bubbles: Feel free to email me with any questions. :o)
... this book from Wee Wonderfuls "Put Together Book #2 : Spaceboy and Robot". Full sized pattern pieces, and detailed instructions. Look - such cuteness! Run, don't walk to here, to buy a copy. Me? My usual mantra"back on payday".
Apart from playing around with the aestethics of my blog - I'm never happy with it - today I have found two patterns that I want to make very soonish. Big thanks to Claire Howson for sharing the link for this one with me. I've been hanging to find a metal kiss lock purse tutorial, as I need to mend...
Further to my vintage pattern coveting, naughty me went to e-bay and typed in "Voguart" and was hit by a wave of vintage transfers available for purchase! I decided to indulge in "buying it now" a listing of 22 patterns from a seller in the USA. I think what got me was the chickens! When they...
By now you have an arsenal of weapons to use when you battle the market. In this lesson you will add yet another weapon: CHART PATTERNS! Think of chart patterns as a land mine detector, because once you learn this, you will be able to spot “explosions†on the charts before they even...
Why day trade once you get a good seat and the market is going your way. It is always more profitable to ride even the short wave for 2-10 days by adding up. In general, you must day trade only when you are losing. To find a buy entry seat for short-term trades, you can study the "accumulation and...
Today marked the opening night of the 30th Annual YMCA book fair in St. Louis. On opening night, you had to pay $10 to get in, and for Saturday through Wednesday it's free. We've never been to the opening night, but tonight it seemed like the thing to do. Man was it worth it. I got a paper ream box...

I had this feeling it had been months since I'd updated my knitting projects here, but looking back I see it has been just over a month since the last substantive update. Why did I think it had been so long? Quite frankly, because I've finished so many things! That's two pairs of bed socks (pattern...
Okay, not really a new kick. I bought a sewing machine like 4 or 5 years ago. Then I made one circle skirt and bought some cute fabric, only to pack it all up and forget about it until like a month ago. It was then that I, for an unknown reason, decided I needed to sew things again. So, I got my...
