I had to go downtown this afternoon to the Post Office. When I was leaving, my vehicle just happened to turn left instead of right to head over to my local yarn shop. Hmm … I guess I might as well go in too. Actually, I had a gift certificate from yarnology that was burning […]

Yarn stash update
I have some yarn leaving my house this weekend. I decided to get rid of all my “scratchy” acrylic yarn. I don’t like working with it anyway and the only reason I was hanging on to it was because I wanted to make some play food for Little Chick. However, when I started straightening out […]
FO Friday – Afghan sampler square #5
Slim pickins this week. All I really have to show you for finished projects is my fifth afghan sampler square.
