More projects done!

I was on a dishcloth binge last week. Too much stress to do anything taking brain activity!

These are the easiest knitting I know. Just a diagonal increase and decrease. I keep dishcloth cotton in a bin that I can just grab and knit away. There are a lot of earthy dishcloths because that seems to be what a lot of my friends have in their kitchen.

These make great hostess gifts when we go to dinner, and they have come to expect them! lol

I keep trying to find a day with no outside obligations, but they don't seem to appear! Oh, well, back to carving out time for the projects I want to finish.

Take care!

Did I tell you?

I belong to a yahoo group that is all about using up our 'leftovers' from other projects. Actually, I'm the listmom. The group is Bits and Bobs, and the url is:

I am posting links to knit and crochet projects that take less than 150 yards of yarn! It is amazing what you can do with that small amount of yarn.

I will be posting these links for the rest of the year, and beyond that if I can.

Join us if you will!

PS: I love this dishcloth, but can't remember where I got the pic. I will post the link when I find it! ;)

Earache!

I have an earache, so I am working on something mindless and simple--dishcloths. I make a diagonal garter stitch square, work in the ends, and it is done.

I will post pics when I can lean over without pain.

Happy Sunday!

Got some projects done!!!

Yay! The photo above is Lacy V Scarf, a pattern from Pegg Thomas. You can find it at:

I got it blocked yesterday. It is made of Woolease, which feels great but does not block as crisply as I like. The scarf looks cool, though, doesn't it?


This is a pic of Allie's quilt. Allie is my baby sister, and she did the piecing on this one. She had some ripples and volcanoes, though, and was not comfortable quilting it. I did an allover squiggle, and you would never know there were any problems. She is gonna do the binding, thus the batting edges.

Off to work on RRCB now!
