LOL, that's a priceless picture of my father and uncle Tim. I must say learning how to knit was one of those special Christmas presents that you get that never gets old, and is always beneficial. My scarf is coming along nicely,I am making progress... as is my "closeknit" family.

Omg, dropped stitches are such a pain in the but. I am embarking on my first project and after i go by a couple of rows i go to check out my scarf- in - progress and there you have it a dropped stitch!!! Thanks for this post...it helps all those knitting first timers.

"Bah Humbugged" hahaha that totally got me cracking up. I am not suprised that they were blown away by your gifts, as most people are when they open your handmade presents. Awesome story as usual, I cant wait for the next craft inferno post. These always put me in a good mood, and inspire me to try my hand at crafting something festive myself!

Wow, what an awesome room made by a brilliant designer and visionary. i love everything about it, especially that couch { what great taste}
You did a great job Rikki, keep up the good work

OMG auntie, thats such a funny but yet sad story. Your first boy-girl party you wanted to be noticed, and you definetly were. This story makes me love you even more {mom would never even think of going as the phantom}
Love always

One of the funniest stories I've ever read. I love how you compare watching the gymnasts in the Olympics{Go Michael Phelps, while we're on the subject} to Christmas presents. You're way too funny.

Michaela, love the chair. I so admire you for all the talent you have. If you ever want to pass on the chair dont forget your sister.

First off, what a cool chair i love the Fabric that you used to redo it . The sewing class story really made me laugh. I love the storys you write and how you tie in your childhood to what your doing today. Cant wait for your next post

What a cool story. Its so nice that something that Greg did when he was six can be passed on to his daughter now . This storys very inspiring it shows us that even the simpelest things like drawing on a piece of paper can lead into something extradonary later. Also major props to everyone involved in this, especially the editor Michaela Murphy .
