The climate for business in Alberta is really bad right now and, as a result, I have been laid off. Upside? I get to craft a whole lot more. Downside? Less money for crafting. I am trying to find the lemonade recipe if I can only remember where I filed it.
I will be spending more time polishing up and testing the bazillion patterns that I have created and are filed away as notes only due to lack of time. I really want to dye gradient yarn as well. There’s the recipe, right there, I knew it would turn up.
Well, the craft sale is done and the resulting orders as well. What do I do now?
I have fallen into machine knitting again to the detriment of my other crafting. I made a resolution to knit or crochet at least two toys every week but I am failing miserably at that! I have one to show for the last two weeks, but, and this is important I guess, I was working on a couple of custom kids’ dresses. All done now except for the final finishing and I am back to the usual.
Stay tuned for new releases and, in the meantime, here are a couple of relatively new creations.
Have a terrific week ahead and, for your health’s sake, give someone a hug and a kind word.
Your toys always make me smile! And the little dress is adorable.
Oh, and I can’t wait to see the gradient yarn!!
I’m sorry you were laid off, that’s tough. When I lost my job last year I focussed on all the extra time I had for crafting and swimming and all the other things I hadn’t been able to do.
