Anyway what I mean to say before I forget is that, unfortunately, because I predicted that bringing my sewing machine to school for another two weeks might mean that it won't get used the whole time, again, I decided that this week I'd bring my knitting basket! Don't worry though, I'm not about to jump ship and become a knitting blog entirely, but this just fits the circumstances for now. I'm currently using my handy-dandy Knifty Knitter circular and rectangular looms to make some crafty progress while away from my machine and wonderfully growing fabric stash. On my red loom I have a hat almost completed using Caron Simply Soft yarn in Light Country Blue and Dark Country Blue together. I apologize for the terrible phone picture below, but in the very near future I'm going to purchase a new actual camera and it will make up for this, I promise!
This hat plus a few others left at home and hopefully a couple more made this week and next will all be sent out to Craft Hope's Project 21 which I mentioned a couple of posts ago. I can't wait so send in my completed hats and scarves and see the wonderful photos of kids so happy to receive them.
Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of my most recent, amazing fabric order from Form and Fabric which I purchased with birthday fabric money from my parents. I'll have to tell you more about my new fabric when I'm back home again!
Huh. I've never used a loom to knit anything. Is it hard? I think you can post as many knitting posts as you'd like ;) I love pretty yarny things! But I love fabric, too.
ReplyDeleteOh goodness I didn't see your comment until now! I've got to get more familiar with Blogger and Google+. Anyway it's funny because I tried rather diligently to learn knitting the traditional way from my grandmother, but it didn't stick. Then I was given the round looms as a gift one year and I've loved them since. Let's just say buying yarn was the precursor to fabric and my current addiction, so I've got plenty of yarn to use!
