Some log cabin knitting (which seems to be all the rage these days):
It's quick & fun & is using up spare bits from a baby blanket.A second attempt at making socks..
..using yarn I got at Rhinebeck.And speaking of Rhinebeck, here's a blurry picture of some of my spoils.
Oh the things I shall knit!I also started my sewing class. I was pretty darn sure of myself thinking I wouldn't really be learning anything at first since I've managed to make a thing or two on my sewing machine already. Turns out I wasn't threading it properly! Well, that explains why my bobbins weren't filling tightly.
I'm also learning how to do some cleaner techniques & finishing as well as the importance of doing the prep work (a lesson I so desperately need to learn). We're only making the insert to a pillow right now, so I don't have much in the way of photos to share. But needless to say, I'm still very excited about the possibilities this class has to offer.
An alarm keeps going off in my head that says I better start thinking about holiday gifts ASAP, but umm..I'm hitting the snooze button.
