I wanted this to be a wordless Wednesday with nothing but the pictures of my finished craft projects, but as I did not finish any of them that is not going to happen. So what I have instead is a W.I.P. (Works In Progress)Wednesday. A jumble of all the things I current have on the needles/hook or in my notebooks.
First up is a plain knit dishcloth. I started this sometime last year with the idea that I needed to refresh my knitting skill and re-learn the essentials: cast on, cast off, knit and purl. I pick it up when I want to practice a stitch to improve my speed.
Next is a crochet doll blanket that I started when the Bumper was a year old. It was supposed to be a baby blanket for her, but it turns out she grew faster than I could crochet.
Then come the hats; the green is still on the hook, but I have finished two yellow ones.
For a lark I picked up a drop spindle kit at the Ocean City fiber festival, because why not learn how to spin while I am at it?
There is of course the ever present sock.
And because I have a terminal case of start-itis something new. Can you guess what?
Lest anyone think that my start-itis limits itself to the fiber arts rest assured it invades other parts of my life. I carry around a spiral bound notebook crammed almost to capacity with the beginnings of short stories, poems, and novel ideas.
These are the things I am working on, I hope to finish all of them; in the meantime I am enjoying the creative process.
