So, I was inspired today by not only the peppermint latte I was enjoying (don't judge) but by my pal Erica. She is an amazing designer (Fiddleknits on Ravelry, check her out), dyer of gorgeous yarns, knitter, spinner, seamster, jewelry maker...the list goes on. She is indeed a kindred spirit. Except she has the guts to do this stuff for money, whereas I bankroll my passions with a pink collar customer service job. I have a bunch of projects I'm planning/working on. We'll discuss those.
Knit Picks Stroll Glimmer, so there's a little bit of party in there. Colorwork is my new thing now.
So are project bags.
Here's one I finished recently. I wanted one to hold both skeins of yarn for the above sock. Super easy, gang. Also, materials to make more project bags.
I am also knitting this sky scarf...
The idea is to knit two rows corresponding with the color of the sky on that day. It's a been a long project, but it's almost done! And it's Alpaca, so it's definitely worth it.
I've been working on these tiny sweaters to make Christmas ornament cards. They are from Berrocco's website and are called minutiae.
Lastly, I am making some ruffle scarves for sale for a charity craft sale at work. Don't judge...it's for charity.
Those are my knitting projects. I would also like to make some Christmassy dishcloths for my MIL. Every year I promise myself that I will not do this and every year I am knitting within an inch. Someday I'll learn.
Well, signing off for now. We'll discuss spinning projects next time and when I get my yarn from the wonderful KnitMona, I will share.
