Get Ready for Halloween with the Skulls Pullover Knitting Pattern

, by . Leave a Comment

I can’t believe it’s almost October! For as slowly as spring and summer went, we sure barreled through September! Halloween — whatever it looks like this year — will be here before we know it, but we still have time to knit some fun garments and accessories to celebrate.

Lion Brand Yarn has this amazing Skulls Pullover that’s perfect for this time of year.

It calls for Pound of Love Yarn so it’s actually a really affordable project, because at most you will need just three skeins of yarn.

Because the skulls are worked in intarsia it’s considered an intermediate project. It’s worked in four pieces and seamed. There are five sizes available, ranging from a chest size of 38 to 66 inches.

Declutter and Get Set for the Season with the Get Organized Toolkit

One of my missions as a crafter is to encourage people to use what they have to make something great. Accumulating stash is fun, but at some point you realize that you have more than you can ever use, and that can be really overwhelming.

A couple of years ago I wrote a book called How to Declutter Your Craft Supplies, which is all about why it’s so hard to let go of stash and how to deal with it. This is something I still struggle with and I’m in the midst of cleaning out my office/studio yet again (seriously, how can I still have so much stuff when I’m not buying anything new?).

If you’re gearing up for spring cleaning (or fall cleaning!) you need to check out the Get Organized Toolkit, of which my book is a part. This collection of more than 60 ebooks, courses, guides and printables will help you organize your home, business, mind and life.

There are so many great products here, from decluttering guides to advice on how to organize your book collection, cleaning up your iPhone and dealing with mental clutter. You’ll learn all about minimalism, get a planner to help you stay on top of home maintenance and learn how to build a capsule wardrobe, among other things. It’s a great way to get a lot of helpful advice all at once to help you lead a more organized and peaceful life.

The bundle is on sale through March 29. You can read more about it on my blog or go here to buy. And if you have specific questions about decluttering craft supplies or using your stash I would love to hear them!
