Okie-dokie. I am coming up with a new strategy. I've been away from knitting for too long! I've got to do something about this.
Picking up a somewhat difficult (for me, anyway) pattern after a 2 year hiatus is just bad (see previous attempt at baby blanket). I need something I can work on without having to concentrate so much. I'd like to just sit and relax and knit-I need to get back into the flow...
My yarn stash has finally made it home!!(well, most of it-I fear I still have a box lost somewhere in the depths of storage...) Tucked away in my cedar closet. I noticed I have alot of random skeins-you know-the kind you impulse buy-usually you only buy one or two-not enough to make much out of...but it was so pretty!!! Well, I've been thinking I might use those to make scarves-all kinds of scarves: ones to keep you warm, novelty scarves... I'll start out with a basic pattern, then work my way up to more difficult ones...perhaps even lace. Eventually I hope to become comfortable enough with knitting again that I can finally finish some of the projects that have fallen to the wayside. (I WILL finish Bella's baby blanket!!!!!!) I also might use this as an opportunity to work on my crochet skills as well...
What will I do with these scarves? I have no idea. Give them as gifts, donate them, perhaps try to sell a couple at a bazaar or something. Who knows? Gotta knit them first!
Watch this space! ;)
