New Scarf Pattern




I'm still working on these socks and almost done, on the cuff now. And I don't know about you but it seems like the closer I get to the end of a project I start thinking about what to make next. Usually there a long list needing to be worked from and then I'll go to the yarn shop and I'll have more projects to add. 

Heaven know I do not need more yarn, but I lose all will power and leave with more.


Did this time, so gorgeous tho.
Red Fish is Forbidden Wooley Babel,
Lime is Ella Rue Lace Merino
and the small skeins are
Wooly Wonka Ceridwen Soak

This time I came back with a pattern to use up some more of my stash too


This one is called "Fringeworthy" and was told it's a very easy.



I was given this yarn and will use it for this pattern. It does need to wash but I'm not sure if I should wash it first or afterwards.
What would you do?
I would like to know if you have had this issue and what worked for you.

Here is a link to the free pattern



Right now I'm listening to Dead Wake by Erik Larson


I'm over halfway done and finding it very interesting.
He not only tells about the story of the sinking of the Lusitania but all that lead up to it, the passengers, the German U boat that sunk it and the WWI that was happening across Europe.
If you like historical novels this is a good one.

Now I want to have it finished by this Friday cause Erik Larson will be speaking in Fayetteville AK. and I plan on going.
I'll let you know how it went.

  2. I struggled with the ribbon yarn and found it very difficult to crochet with. Here's hoping it is easier to knit with.

Countdown to Autumn. 18 days

  After some thought I came up with a general "get to" list for a pre - Autumn preparation. I had mentioned a couple in the last post. I will keep those and have added a few more. I needed to remind myself that a lot of my ideas are a little premature hance the pre autumn and will be better done next month. So here is what I came up with... Deep cleaning is still on Planning activity for next month Decorating inside and out.   Making a fall outfit, sewing and knitting Find some new recipes to try Make a pair of fall or Halloween socks I will be focus on journaling with Autumn being the present subject.  Making sourdough bread again This one I have already started, Watching a cozy, feel good show. So "the man of the place" and are rewatching PBS All Creatures Great and Small. In a matter of a couple days we have watched season 1.

How to Make a Portable Design Wall

I had wanted to get a portable design wall to take to retreats but did not want to pay the price. Looked at various pins on pinterest and took ideas from more than one to come up with my verison. It worked out great and only cost a fraction of the price. The PVC pipes, joints and 2 yards of felt cost under $22.00 My design wall is 4' x 4' which stands approximately 5 1/5' tall. For this size need 2 - 10ft length of 3/4" PVC pipe for the frame and 4ft of 1" PVC pipe for the feet Cut the 3/4" PVC into 4 - 4' section                                                                                       2 - 1' section              Cut the 1"  PVC into 4 - 1' section        ...
