Well my dear friends and readers, how every many there are out there, this will be our LAST Sister’s Challenge. Not because we don’t like doing it, but because I have made the hard decision to no longer co-author Occasionally Crafty with my sister.
I think there are moments in life where you find yourself evaluating how you are spending the precious moments you have. I personally have so many things that I love doing, and crafting is way up there. But ever since we left Korea I’ve been dreaming of a way to be more effective as a piano teacher. See, in Korea they do all their core subjects in the morning and then the students split into various Hagwons, or schools for specific extra subjects. The kids who want to learn piano go every day to their piano hagwon and practice for 45 minutes and get a 15 minute lesson. It’s brilliant, but not quite feasible without renting out a studio space. Well I figured out a way to make something similar happen out of my home, and after a lot of prayer, trial lessons, time and effort, I have discovered a new way of teaching the both scares and exhilarates me!
But I quickly noticed how much time and preparation was necessary to make this work, especially when I open this up to all of my students. Something had to go, and for me it was the blog.
So thank you for all your comments and support throughout the years. I have some fun facts about my time on Occasionally Crafty, and then be sure to keep on reading for my Rainbow project!
I also want to take a moment to thank Valerie. This blog is her baby, and she welcomed me in! It has been an awesome way to do something together even though we’re often far apart. We haven’t always agreed on everything, but I think working together on the blog has strengthened our relationship and it will be something we’ll always remember. Love you Valerie!
So PLEASE, keep coming back and seeing the amazing things Valerie has planned for the blog. Her enthusiasm has never been higher and she’s got a lot of great ideas just waiting to be shared. I’ll be her #1 fan and you all just be right there with me!
Enough babbling from me- you’re here to see what I made! Valerie picked the theme of Rainbow for our last Sister’s challenge. I wanted to knit something for you, and when I saw this yarn, I knew it was perfect for a spring scarf!
Isn’t this the prettiest yarn you’ve ever seen? Hand dyed, lace weight yarn from Angora Valley on Etsy. 
I found this simple pattern here, and I just love how it turned out. It’s a nice, lightweight scarf that is bright and beautiful for Spring!
Bye!! I’ll miss sharing this part of my life with you, but don’t worry, I’ll still be Occasionally Crafty!
