Stitch a Pet Bandana for All Those Animal Events

I don’t know if it is like this where you live, but there are lots of events this time of year that seem to be as much for the dogs as they are for the humans.

There are literally pup crawls, where people go from bar to bar with their dogs, but there’s also the farmers’ market and plenty of other outdoor events where dogs are definitely part of the attraction.

If you have a pup who likes to look a little fancy at events such as these, why not knit up a boho pet bandana?

This free pattern from Knit Picks was designed by Hannah Maier is great for small and medium sized dogs. It has a triangular portion (fringe optional) as well as a double-thick neckband worked in the round with ribbing on the inside to help with fit.

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!
