🌟Saturday Night Wizards!🪅🪄

HAPPY SHINee DAY!!!!! Today is the 14th anniversary of the group's stage debut and I have something really special to share with you!!!

After watching the Groks from the Keyland concert, we all went completely😍over the pink, plaid outfits Key and the dancers wore for his latest song "Saturday Night"… and then he did the same look in lime green for his Music Core stage! Both of my older girls are totally into the crop tops and plaid skirts or high-waisted pants look, and they loved the mix-matched dancers' outfits.

Soon after its release, the holidays were coming up and it was soon time to pick our theme for the year and they were torn between Harry Potter and Saturday Night. I mentioned that the two could easily be blended together in an epic mash-up and both of the girls were super excited!! For Akira’s outfit, I went a different direction and made her a doe Patronus, pulling inspiration from an earlier Key video/song, called Forever Yours. I named her outfit, "Forever Your Patronus."

🌈Pattern Release! 👽 The Touka Sweater + FREE PATTERN: Drawstring Charms!

Sometimes, amazing patterns stay in the vaults for way too long. I drafted the first version of the Touka Sweater in October 2017 for Halloween sweaters for my kiddos. It quickly became my go-to pattern for sweater-making because it was so quick and so easy. I used it for almost every holiday at least once since then! I was constantly putting other newer patterns ahead of the Touka until a few months ago when I declared the time was neigh! I must turn the Touka Sweater I’d loved for so long into a real-life pattern!
