My creative space…
This week’s creative space looks pretty much identical to last week. I haven’t sewn a garment. I haven’t begun quilting. I have been hooking, but not with Bendigo yarn. I’ve also spent a bit of time over here…
I’ve been busy tagging my projects to organise them on my project page into coherent groups. Ravelry continues to amaze me with its functionality. It’s an exemplary website!
Michelle has prompted me to begin another shawl, so we are having a crochetalong of Eva’s Shawl. You can work it in almost any weight of yarn with an appropriate hook. I’m two 50g balls of yarn into mine – it’s flying along! She’s using much more exotic yarn than I am – I dove into stash and am using Moda Vera Cynthia, which is an acrylic/tencel blend. Anyone else want to join us? I wonder who will finish first…
And it looks as though Karen has thrown down the gauntlet today in her creative space with a sewalong – I have the same pattern and suitable fabric and have been planning on making this dress for Clare for a while, so maybe by the end of the weekend the machine will have been whirring again. No more procrastinating!
Kirsty has the master list of creative spaces – drop by for some inspiration. And fingers crossed that school holidays will bring weather like a couple of days ago, when we could tell that it was definitely spring!
You know in a couple of months time, we’ll be sweltering in the forty plus heat and bemoaning the lack of crochet weather. At least that’s what I’m telling myself as I retrieve my hot water bottle from the linen closet again…
Oh, you’re WAY ahead of me! I’ve hurt my left (yarn gripping) arm quite badly, so not too much crochet in my immediate future! I’m taking it very easy.
It would be great if others joined us too!
How funny, I started the Eva shawl last night. Mine is much lighter, a gift for Paula boss. I’m off to check out karrens sew a long.
I have a habit of intending to spend 20 minutes updating my Ravelry site, only to look up from the computer three hours later… does this happen to you, too? })i({
