I’ve been doing a lot of knitting lately. Well, relative for me, anyway. I know people that knit like crazy… I’ll never keep up with them hehe.
But anyway, yes, knitting. I’ve compiled quite a stash! Good yarn is expensive but sooooooo worth it. These days I’m absolutely in love with Debbie Bliss Cashmerino Aran. If you’re on Ravelry you can check out my yarn stash. It’s small compared to some, but I have enough for plenty of small projects.
I just finished making my Blackberry Cowl. It’s not as soft as I had hoped but it’s pretty cozy. Now I’m working on a Chocolate Striped Scarf for Pod and have yarn to make one for myself. I finally finished the wrist warmers that go with the slouch hat that I made for Sonia for Christmas.. whoops.
Yes, I’m aware that most of those links go to Ravelry, so just in case you’re not a member, here’s some pictures of these projects. Yeah, the pink hat is mine, but Sonia’s looks just like it, but teal. The wrist warmers are the same color.
1. Blackberry Cowl Stitches (Pre Blocked), 2. Diagonal Chocolate Stripes, 3. Pink Hat, 4. Teal Yarn
I’ve got a few pairs of fingerless gloves in progress, too. I don’t know why I can’t just sit down and start the second glove after I finish the first one. I’ve got two pairs right now that only have one glove made haha. i almost started the third, but I should REALLY finishes these two first.
So that’s what I’ve been up to. Sewing is on hold right now; my sewing machine is driving m nuts.
What crafts or hobbies do you guys do?
Oh, such pretty colors on everything! I don’t think I’m coordinated enough to knit. Lately the only crafty like thing I do is bake.. I like decorating cupcakes!
The teal color is lovely! I’ve mostly been knitting too, since I’ve gotten the hang of it now. =)
