You'll notice this is not my usual blog. This is a new blog! I figured I'd branch out so I could shamelessly promote a craft blog (not to worry,
my old blog is still up and running) without ruining or alienating anything.
Let's vent for a moment about the domain name and the title of this blog. They are not the same. This is because Blogger (although I love the functionality of this site dearly) is full of old blogs using up domain names without being useful or up to date. Therefore, I decided to use the domain
craftswithreagan.blogspot.com, even though the title of this blog is actually
Casting Purls.
It's a pun, get it? Because "casting pearls" is an expression (look it up) and "purls" and "casting on" are knitting terms? Get it? It's cute!
I'll leave you with a list of other cute ideas I had that were already taken. Not that I'm bitter.
Mother of Purl
Girl with a Purl Earring
Needles in Haystacks
Knitty Gritty
Knit Picky
Spinning a Yarn
Cute right? Anyway, I had fun doing the new logo, and I'll probably keep tweaking things as we go. If you think it's too pink or you hate the name or want a different font or want to tell me you love me, leave a comment, as always!
Lots of love,
Reagan
Print out the pattern here. Use a pencil to trace it all out. It's simple. Really. Here are my pieces, you'll need a stem, leaf, seeds, white inside, and a front and back piece in whatever apple-y color you please. I chose to do a green apple for you guys.
