You likely will have noticed my quest to reduce the leftover yarn stash(es) and I came across an idea to finally use the sock yarns to make something useful. I'm using THIS tutorial and so far I've done this much....
And....I've added to the hat collection for donation with these....
And now I'm tearing off on another tangent in a quest to reduce the stash of denim that is overflowing the container and I am wondering if I could make THIS and use it as a base to make THIS. Of course I've horrified the RC by telling him I'm cutting up lots of denim which I will turn into a quilt (he's fine with that) but then I sent him right off the rails by telling him that I then planned to cut the quilt up again. My main goal in life is to keep him wondering! And now I'm wondering if I (or my hands) will attempt to add some sashiko stitching. Jury is still out on that idea.
- Although there's no real 'pattern' for THIS, I thought it was a great idea for displaying special buttons (or perhaps brooches?)
- Further on mitered knitting, how about THIS?
- THIS would be a fun thing to play with and create something pretty at the same time.
- The weavers among you might find THIS article of interest.
Today's quote is from Ronald Reagan..."When we speak of peace, we should not mean just the absence of war. True peace rests on the pillars of individual freedom, human rights, national self-determination, and respect for the rule of law"
