My one-track vision for dedicated studio time has so many sidetracks now that it looks like a chicken yard after feeding time! I have a river project on hold, free motion quilting class samples on hold waiting a sewing machine cleaning, a zendrawing quilt on hold and now I’ve gone back to something I had thought I was done with…
For a number of years I have knitted some unique scarves and offered them for sale in a couple of limited venues. I was NOT going to do that anymore, yet I felt the call to knit something. It is fall, after all. Then I went and looked at my yarn stash and found so many odds and ends of yarn, just perfect for scarves and I couldn’t help myself. My knitting needles jumped out of the drawer and into my hands and I found myself sitting on the couch, watching (listening to!) football and knitting…pretty typical fall behavior around here. I’ll knit through this weekend and take my scarves in on Monday. What I have done is what will be offered. Here’s an idea of what I have right now.
I typically donate any unsold items to charity for Christmas baskets so I’m never selling “old” stuff and this year for sure anything left will be going away! Now that I have that novelty yarn stash down to a small pile, I’m sure I can indulge my knitting cravings and just donate right from the start.
And if I can resist the call of the wild yarns, I may be able to keep that stash down to a reasonable level. I sure hope so…
Your scarves look beautiful. I wish I could be that productive!
Scarves and TV go together well…foo-foo yarn does the work and not much thought required for either occupation!
