I usually have multiple projects going at once, but this week I’ve been pretty focused. It’s amazing how quickly a project works up when I concentrate on only one thing at a time!
Maple Leaf Shawl
Mini MAPLE LEAVES
I wanted to make some mini maple leaves using the same yarn I am using for the MAPLE LEAF Shawls. I have a few different ideas on color schemes and techniques for dyeing the shawls, but I have never dyed an already knit object. I will practice on the mini maple leaves first.
MAPLE LEAF the Sixth and MAPLE LEAF the Seventh
Last week was the week of all the appointments. Most weeks, I only leave the house a couple times, mostly for errands. But last week, I was out every day and for 3 of those days I was out of the house for the entire day. I did get crafting done and turned in for HPKCHC classes by the end of the month, but I did not write blog posts on my crafting. The completed crafting included two more MAPLE LEAF Shawls.
WIP Wednesday: September 24, 2014
I’ve got a lot of projects in process right now! I haven’t quite finished the ones I already had on the needles and I’ve started a few new projects.
WIP Wednesday, September 17, 2014
This morning I had a routine doctor’s appointment. After the appointment, I scheduled another appointment for October 1. The receptionist repeatedly said, “August 1,” even after I clarified that she meant October. This happened at least 3 times. It was confusing me, but at the same time I understand her perspective. How can it possibly be September? And halfway through September? And a Wednesday again? The good news is that I’ve gotten a lot of knitting done this week. Seven hours on a plane meant lots of progress on my socks. I can never sleep on a plane, and my seat was the only one in my visual range with the overhead light on for our red-eye home from San Francisco!
