Got a tin of chocolates for Xmas. They were delicious. As the old tin I used for some of my knitting notions had finally died, I transferred everything into the new one.
No matter how many times my grandkiddies come, they still have to check in case miraculously the tin contains chocolate again.😅 😜
I definitely need to sort out my yarn.
I have yarn in baskets, in cupboards, and alongside my chair.
The two baskets alongside my chair are my 'working' (...er, um...lol) ones, they're holding the current WIPs that I pick up regularly.
The cupboards hold my main stash and patterns, needles, etc...
Then there are the hand-dyed yarn clubs I belong to that mean I get more each month.
Of course - collecting yarn and using yarn are two different hobbies 😂 😅 😜
Frogging (tinking) it!
Got side track when I started these socks. Made up the pattern as I went but didn't bother writing it down.
Picked it up again a few months later and a) can't remember what row I'm up to, b) what the hell I did, and c) I no longer like the design...lol.
Normally I scribble something out & leave it with the project, this time I didn't. 😜
I have a "no buying yarn unless you have a project in mind" rule, buuuut I might have ordered 5 skeins for a yet-to-be-planned sweater project 🙈
I'm thinking something like this cabled mesh sweater? With those traditional 90s punk stripes (you know the ones). With or without the color work skull (to be decided)
At a recent event I did the colour "The Gentle Fire of Ruby" was by far and away the most popular, so I've spent the last couple of weeks restocking this colour across various bases. Hard to pick a favourite, but on the Suilven DK base it does take on an extra lusciousness.
Working on March's square in the Makealong blanket. Colour is part of the Seascape series hand-dyed by https://fiberlily.com.au/product/make-along-club/.
Found I need to concentrate on this one...🤪

Still deciding whether to do the Westknits MKAL - I've bought the pattern & now trying to select, if I do it, what yarn to use.
Went through my stash and have 5 skeins that I think work together. Big decision to choose which 4...lol
