Sea Glass Tray Tutorial

Sea Glass Mosaic Tray

I went looking for a tutorial to end the month and I found such a pretty one over at the site Sand & Sisal. Perfect for summer since it’s made with sea glass,. And if you don’t happen to have access to sea glass you can always make your own with broken glass and a rock tumbler or etching solution. I love what a rock tumbler does to it…in about 8-12 hours. Back to the tutorial. the writer’s name is Kim and I just love this tray. Thanks Kim. She used my team colors, lime and turquoise. So good. And perfect for summer.

The Journey Hat – Where Wild Horses and Wool Meet – Knitting Pattern

I honestly fell in love with this Journey Hat the moment I saw those wild horses galloping across it—it just spoke to something in me. As someone who knits a lot (and I mean a lot), this pattern was a refreshing change of pace. It’s beautifully designed and incredibly clear to follow. You can tell it’s been thoughtfully written.

I used a mix of natural wool tones with a soft charcoal for the horse silhouette, and the final result? Magical. The colorwork is rhythmic and satisfying once you find your groove. I wouldn’t call it beginner-easy, but if you’ve done some stranded knitting before, you’ll be absolutely fine—and the payoff is so worth it.

It knit up quicker than I expected, and the finished hat has a lovely, sturdy-yet-soft feel. It made a gorgeous gift for my horse-loving teen (though I’m secretly making another for myself!).

If you’re after a meaningful, eye-catching knit that’s a little different from your usual fair isle, this is the one. Highly recommend for any horse lover out there. Makes a great gift too and dare I say Christmas is not that far away.
