I have been spinning, knitting and crocheting so here are two pics. One is of me modeling a short scarf that I knitted using lace weight angora yarn...fun..NOT. It is very soft and snuggly.
This other one is of a cowl that I made for my sister. I use it at the office where we like to keep it a toasty 68 degrees. This one is crochet. Aren't those buttons cool?
Yes, there is a blue green theme going on here. The fiber I am spinning now is similarly dyed. Below is a picture of the wool/bamboo/silk fiber that I am spinning on a new spindle that I just got..well, its a used spindle but new to me.
On a side note, I just learned that Allessandra of Allesandra Adelaide Needleworks is in hospital with a diagnoses of myeloid leukemia. Her Facebook page has her address for any that wish to send cards.
Fill your days with things and people you love.
Hugs,
Christina in Miami
First... Love your glasses!!
ReplyDeleteI know how you feel about XS reminding you of your sister. I have sooo many projects that I stitched while waiting with my Mom while my Dad was hospitalized over the years. A lot of pieces remind me of this or that regarding my parents.
Your yarnwork looks so nice. And yes, those buttons are very cool!
When your heart is ready....you'll stitch again.
ReplyDeleteLovely knitting and crochet...it's good that you have some creative outlet
Thank you, Thoeria.
DeleteI hope in time you'll find only comfort and warmth when you do those activities you once shared. My prayers go out to you during this sad time.
ReplyDeleteThank you Claudette. I picked up some cross stitch last night while I was watching TV and did OK. As long as I didn't think of her, I was fine.
