Day number 8!! Yesterday I managed to clean off my desks a bit and made them look a bit better than they did yesterday, but they still need more work. I plan to spend some more time tidying this area up as I have a couple art projects I want to work on!
Yesterday I did my daily temperature scarf rounds and that was about it for crafting for me. In the morning I like to check the high temperature from the previous day and then spend a short while knitting the two rows for the last day. If I keep up doing it this way I don't get behind!
Hubby and I had a busy day yesterday and I had no real time to craft... I am still resisting the urge to cast something new on! The only thing I think I will allow myself to cast on soon are the BAMKAL and BAMCAL squares. Those qualify as WIPs :) Really they do!
I had a chance to browse the clearance section at Hobby Lobby and I found some fantastic art embellishments! I love clearance sales!! I got $60 worth of goodness for $20! I am excited to add some of this goodness to my mixed media projects! Here is what I came home with:
The second clue in the Mystery Sock Along was released overnight. I have some confusion about where the beads need to be placed so I am waiting on clarification on that before diving in. I'll likely spend this evening working on that!
And later today or tomorrow (likely tomorrow) I need to block my Mystery Shawl so that I can call that project 100% complete! I also have a few little ends to weave in on that project too. I have a goodly bit of leftover yarn from that shawl - one skein of sock yarn was not enough and not much of the second skein was used. I am itching to cast on a pair of fingerless mittens to go along with it! I am eyeing up the Aegwynn mittens - I think they are lovely and this yarn would work nicely!
What great finds you found in the clearance aisle at HL. I love that store. I would love to see a photo of your temperature scarf. I jave thought about doing a shawl in temperature colors. I am fascinated ny your mixed media artwork and look forward to seeing more.
ReplyDeleteAh yes, blocking - I seem to put that off so my projects sit at 99% complete!!
