Yarn, Knitting and Crochet

New (Old) Shawl

I have been lying low this last month but have still been busy at my craft.  I spent some time going through my stash and unfinished stuff.

When I started sorting through every bag and box, I found twenty one, yes you read it, twenty one unfinished projects.  I was ready to cast on a new one but thought it was time to buckle down and get at least a couple of these finished first.

I am down to five remaining, no six, I just remembered a shawl that I started in January and am reknitting for the third time.  That one may become a frog project since the level of frustration is growing with the pattern that I am working on.

I found a shawl that I started in December or November of 2018.  Did you see how I put December first so you would think that it is not as old as November but really I think it was October or maybe September.  You know how that goes.

 

Anyway, I found a shawl worked with Caron Cotton Cakes and finished it!  I knit the top piece and, at the time, dithered with changing to crochet to finish the bottom.  I started the crochet last weekend and here is the result.  I am pretty happy with it and look at the miracle of blocking!

 

I will show you all of the toys that I finally finished off next week.  In the meantime, have a happy and crafty week.  Be kind and wear your mask please to help keep your vulnerable fellow humans safe.
