KAL
I mentioned a few episodes ago that I’d like to do a finish as many socks as you can kind of thing with points. But I have personally been overwhelmed at how many KALs are going all over the place–in some groups, multiples. So I have KAL fatigue. I’m going to wait and see how that feels in March and consider starting something then.
Sew What?
2 bags for knitting using the Great Granny Bag tutorial from Emmaline Bags blog. The first bag is featured at the top of this post and the other bag is this pretty yellow one:
Rants and Raves
Rant-Outdoor ice rinks when you’re a spectator and it’s ridiculously cold outside
Rave-A visit from my sewing mojo who has been sadly missing in action
Deep Thoughts
The fine line between crafting competition and bonding. I think.
