So today has been a day.  Facebook is not cooperating, my dad had a asthma attack, not bad and last night I finished sewing all my squares together for my baby afghan and discovered I need to add more to it.  That is how it has been with all afghans I have made so far.  Oh well, live and learn.  I shouldn't complain, my dad's attack passed, Facebook will cooperate and eventually I will figure out how to measure.LOL 

But now the really big question, do I start think about a new knitting project, I have only knitted scarfs so far.  Or maybe something more adventurous.  What to do, what to do.

The Next thing

So I have finished all my adorable squares and now it is time to sew them together.  I am trying different techniques so it should be interesting how the overall project turns out.  For the new Year I am going to be moving my studio space around to make more room so I can start cranking out some really good things.  My goal is to have a good surplus of craft items so I can do the Bremerton Farmers Market in May.

New Project

I have started a new project. I am crocheting a baby blanket. I am not sure how it will turn out.  I don't really use a pattern.  I am doing small squares of variegated colors with scraps I have of Lily's sugar and cream cotton yarn.  I chain 12 and dc for 5 rows.  They are little perfect squares. Should be interesting. Pictures to come soon.  My nephew Tyler is having his 1st baby ,a girl and I want to make him something special for her. She will be named after mom.   She would be pleased I think.  Its been 7 years and it still hurts sometimes. I miss her a lot but she is in a better place.
Today has been a rough day, it is so cold. I am paying the bills and we all know how that feels, never enough and expenses must be met.  I make it work, that is all I can do.

Underconstruction

So it's a new year and I am trying something new.  Up coming thoughts will be about issues old and new that impact the young and old.  Also the things I like to do i e, knitting, crochet, painting, photography as well as how I see the world. I think it will be good and if at first it isn't I can only get better.
