This summer we decided to put pool noodles over the springs on our tramp like others have done. They worked, but our black lab, "Oila", thought we had attached chew toys to it just for her. Each morning as I played fetch with her (mandatory at least twice a day at our house) I kept thinking there had to be something I could use those pieces of pool noodles for instead of just throwing them ...

Free Pattern: Scrubby Water Splash Balls

Free Pattern: Scrubby Yarn Review and Flower Scrubbers
Free pattern and yarn review Last week Red Heart Yarns sent me some Scrubby yarn to try. At first glance it looks like a cross between fur and a brillo pad! I actually squealed when I saw the bright colors and even the names, such as ducky, ocean and grape are fun too. I couldn't wait to start playing with it. Since I have been working on scrubbies each week, this was the perfect yarn for me. ... [ Read More ]
