It's All About the Blog - Itty Bitty Style....

Hello from the land of the great blizzard of 2011!!! Here in the greater Chicago land area we have 15-20 inches of snow and 4-5 foot snow drifts. Lovely!!!! (and I mean that) I love the snow and DH and I are safe at home and we have power. So, I can love snow and praise it's beauty and not worry. However, for those of you that may be stuck in this winter wonderland with no power, transport, etc... you're in my thoughts and I hope you are safe and sound a.s.a.p!!!

Moving on.... I apologize for not having a blog review in the last two weeks. Let's just chalk it up to life and start anew! I've actually wanted to do this review for a couple of weeks so in a way I'm right on time. When I think Susan Anderson, I think itty bitty. Itty bitty hats, toys, nursery's - and not only do I find all these itty bitty wonders in Susan's lovely books, I also find them on her blog. http://susanbanderson.blogspot.com/. Susan is by no means a newbie in the blogging world - she has an archive going back to 2006. Lots of inspiration in those posts - so you have a treasure trove to read through.

Susan has a wonderful way with the wee-ones in life and her talent is greatly appreciated by all of us that need a little help making things for the wee-one's little world. Then again, Susan is a mom of four little darlings so in my book she's an expert extraordinaire.

Not only does Susan have this blog in which she shares all of her knitty adventures, she also has this blog http://www.spudandchloe.com/blog/ which is her blog of free pattens. You heard me free patterns - run now - you'll love all the little jewels that Susan has been so generous as to share with us.

After you've made your way through Susan's work you can also follow her on Facebook. If you've already made some of her patterns from the itty bitty books, you'll love having these two additional references and if you're new to Susan's work, this is a great place to start and get to know this talented fellow knitter.

Knit on, Read on....
