I finished my Jen Manuell Bala Bag! (Switching the pomegranates for roses). I added a zipper to mine to save me from accidental dumps. And it has pockets! I hope it’s more “Coastal Grandma” vibe than “Home Alone 2 Pigeon Lady.” #rughooking #eastcoastcoastalgrandma

Hooked mittens from an online course I took with Winnie Glavine of Hooked Creations NL. It was a fun class! I’m going to start a second pair when I find a thinner base wool. That red was a difficult one to wrestle through my sewing machine. #rughooking

This is my attempt so far at Jen Mannuel’s Bala Bag pattern. I love her pomegranates, but I decided to do roses. Mainly because my first pomegranate looked more like a rose. I’m hoping to meet more rug hookers and other crafty types on this platform 🙂 #rughooking #imadethis

Let’s try something different.
