Last Saturday found DD1 and I at the Fibre Shindig. Wow, what a wonderful experience but very hard on the budget! Lots of gorgeous squishiness leapt into my shopping bag to come home and join the stash party.
Speaking of stash, I am using up my stash of worsted ends with charity hat knitting. I know that I wrote about this before but here are a some of the hats that I made this month.
Do you ever hit the wall creatively? I am so there. I haven’t even got the creative juice to clean up my new patterns and publish them. Do you think it might be spring fever after the long dark winter? I hope so as I am ready to rock those needles and hooks if I can just find the right project! I will update you next week; my mind is cooking up an idea while I am writing this!
Okay, enough of the grumbling! I have made a new toy and I am tickled with the result. How is this for some serious cuteness!
I started with my monster pattern, which is free on ravelry by the way. I made longer ears and left out the hair rows on the body piece. It is an easy adaption and a quick make.
I finally got this little sweater sewn up this week. It had been languishing in the UFO pile for only a short time, but I am determined that the UFO pile is going to stay at two week finish or frog status.
I also found this little cradle bag, almost finished, when I organized (sort of) my stash and finished it up this week as well. Looks like I am on a roll!
Happy crafting this week and may all of your yarn pull easily from the centre!
