Year Of Projects 2021/2022

Let's do this!  Well I've decided to revamp the blog and get it back up and running for The Year of Projects.  Why you might ask?  Well because how else to post and keep track and work on getting everything done I want to?  I started out following Anne's idea for how to pick yarn for the projects.  Random numbers assigned to my stash.  From there I mapped out projects and then mapped out months to get work done in.  I'm sure this list will evolve over time.  But, here is the plan for now.

July 1st 2021 - June 30th 2022

July - Drop Stitch Scarf

August - Fingerless mits

September - Selago Sunset

October - Rabbit Moon Cowl

November - Oak Grove

December - Diamond Chain

January - Flounce Cardi

February - Age of Brass

March - Be Simple Variations

April - Hitchhiker

May/June (catch up on all the projects that are running slow)


This is 12 stash yarns in 10 project.  I'm sure some will go over a month (especially the socks).  Besides these my plan is to finish:

1. Sweater I'm working on now

2. Put together the hexi blanket

3. Finish Tricia's quilt

4. Finish copy cat cowl


I, of course, have to wind yarn and that is something I hate.   Fingers crossed it goes well.

Bowls With Boarders!

Image
There is this great blog hop that I joined. It is called bowls with boarders. Regina came up with this great paper piece pattern - which I used to stack them this high.  Please check out all the other bowls for today! Birgit H. Vicki B. Monika G. Scher (no post) Dorothea Rosa Patch.The Love Of Sewing Nuclear Knits Cottage-Quilt Cattinka Hill Valley Quilter Ninis Patchwork   I wanted a table runner but didn't want to keep stacking bowls - so I decided to take my favorite fabric and use it on the other half. After that I decided my love of hexagons had to come out as well.  This was an incredibly fun project!  You should check out the rest of the bowls on the site.  So impressive!

F.O. Stupidly Simple Shawl

Image
I love putting FO in the subject line. Makes me feel like I've done something good! Project Details: Started on March 6th and finished on June 5th. Longer than one would think - but this was the car or doctor's office project. Not something I worked on all the time. I used 6 skeins of Bristol Yarn Gallery Buckingham Fingering alpaca yarn held together. Well I held two strands together (not all 6 at one time). This gave me the weight I wanted and it still drapes well I think. The pattern is really only 2 sentences long. I used size 7 needles and didn't change anything from the pattern. It was really a fun project!

When Crafting Goes Bad Part II

Image
Well I did it again. No I didn't cut my finger with the rotary blade - but I might as well have. In an attempt to get my big spinning wheel working I was testing out some fiber - when all of a sudden the whole flyer and bobbin came off and slammed into my big toes. I'm pretty sure it is broken or really badly bruised. I've been icing it and it hurts to walk. Again the hubby wonders why hobbies are so violent! Ps - I know I have ugly toes...get over it, they are feet!
