I've been wanting to give rope baskets a try. I made the large one last night and the two small ones today. They're fun and quick. Those are ds's guitar picks in the small one.  |

sueg I was oohing and aahing over your grey sweater, and noticed that you said you need to "sew" it together. Do you really mean sew like a sewing machine or by hand, or does that mean it gets knitted or crocheted together? I'm not gonna lie, I'm really hoping you meant sew like with a sewing machine. Because this might mean I have a chance at fixing a 20 year old cashmere fisherman's sweater I have. I have worn that poor sweater to bits, but I'm not ready to give her up yet. Her arm pitties are worn thin, and I thought I was going to have to learn to do some kind of basic knitting to fix it. But perhaps I can take a seam or two to help her.

It does means sew, and will be done by hand. It isnβt really difficult, once you know how to do it and I learned how to do it nearly 50 years ago (yes, I am old!) I will start by attaching the sleeves to the body, then Iβll sew up the side seams to the underarm, then continue down the sleeve to the cuff. Once I get going, it will be less than an hourβs work. |

Woohoo! Is there a special stitch I need to learn? Do I need to acquire some black cashmere yarn to do this? |

This is my 3rd pom pom wreath I've made since last fall and it went to my sister. She loves color so I made some multi-colored poms for this one.    ALWAYS love to see your Pom Pom wreaths !!! They make me smile π |

I don't know what is wrong with me. . . I haven't finished the current prayer shawl I am working on and I am already signing up for a Malabrigo KAL that begins on April 1st ! I have even bought the required yarn for it. Ay ya ya! I doubt I will have the other one finished by April 1st - I think I need an intervention - haha!! I fell in love with the middle skein and have ordered two. Thanks for posting this and being an enabler ππ₯° |

we were on page 3! GASP!
I love all the posts of craftiness being shared!
I've made a few shirts here and there, did some cup vinyl recently too. Nothing super great and since I'm back teaching kids both in person and online, I have ZERO energy to do anything very creative after work.
I will be getting my quilt chunks I gave to a friend to machine embroider the months on for me tomorrow after work! I'm so excited!
Before I can start back on the quilt tho, I have to finish the puzzle that is on the pool table (which is where I craft). It's a REALLY hard one too! Taking me WAY longer than any other ones I've done recently!
