Cozy knit accessories are right at your fingertips-literally! Make scarves, hats, jewelry, cat ear headbands, boot toppers, and much more with easy instructions for 15 projects.

They love charm bracelets but ones made by them are way more special! Here is each girl’s first mushroom hanging to dry. I think they are pretty cute! I can’t wait to see how the whole bracelet turns out.
