An update
I haven’t updated this blog in awhile. Sorry about that. My lame excuse is that my camera ran out of batteries last weekend and I keep forgettting to buy some. So I thought I would post a little update on my crafty happenings.
- I got the book Sew What! Skirts in tje mail today form Amazon. I am so stoked! The book tells you how to draft your own skirt patterns based on your very own measurements. Then it gives directions for 16 basic skirt designs from easiest to hardest. But they all look pretty easy. I can’t wait to find some fun fabric and make something from it!
- I decided to knit up the Sunrise Circle Jacket on size three needles. I know. I’m totally insane for doing it. And would you believe this, it’s still measuring out about an inch too big! I don’t know what the deal is with my knitting but something is seriously wrong if I’m knitting that loosely. But anyway, 1 inch too big will be okay for me because I’m kind of in between sizes so I think it will work. At least I hope so. Annelis mentioned in my last post that it’s hard to knit when it’s knitted on smaller needles and, oh boy, is it ever. I think I’m going to develop Carpel Tunnel Syndrome knitting this thing.
- I had a dream last weekend about quilting. I haven’t done anything with my Tuscan Sun quilt since the last time I posted on it. However, thanks to Esther’s tip, I do have a Setting Kit for it now! I scored on Ebay. Yay!
- I have worn Loll several times and I love this sweater. I have gotten numerous compliments on it.
That is all. Take care and happy Friday!
