Doesn't everyone use their yarn swift to hank up their lights?
I played a bit with my new Japanese crochet book yesterday. I did one motif for the cover shawl in Zephyr wool/silk. It came out a little big, so I'll go down one or two hook sizes. The zephyr is a two ply yarn, which makes crocheting it on the small hooks a bit more of a challenge, but the drape is lovely! I'm also looking at some weaving yarns for a pure silk option.
I updated the UFO/WIP list yesterday, so I'm up to
So today I'll add a few more projects to the list, finish taking the Christmas stuff down and maybe work on a little knitting. I might have to take a break from the Lasso Gansey, tho' (boo-hoo). I think those size three needles might be too hard on my hands right now. Oh well, I've got lots of other projects to work on...
Happy Knitting!
Your WIP page is a WIP itself! I am impressed. I'll have to show it to the kids in the teen knitting club at DD's school... --Sylvia
ReplyDeleteAnother creative use for the swift! :) Those Japanese books you got look fun! Your WIP list is amazing!
ReplyDeleteWish I had thought of that! Your project page is awesome. A lot of those look like swatches to me, so you can count them or not, whichever makes you happier!
ReplyDeleteSo many great projects started; I'm always inspired/tempted by your WIPs. That is some creative use for the swift!
