WIP's

Works in Progress that is :)

I have a lot. As in a whole lot. Due to this I am only posting a couple at a time as not to overwhelm myself. I love crafting and sometimes another project calls my name before another is finished. One of my goals this year was to completly stop working on more than 2 projects at one time and to finish up all my older WIP's. Therefore I plan to stick to this plan. I am either going to finish everything or finish most and frog the rest to use for another new project.

I am uber excited for the task at hand and am hoping that my blog will help in keeping me on track. Without further ado here goes it:

 A felt bear plushie I am working on. Everything shown is felt aside from the ribbon for attaching a key ring and the mouth which is a back stitch. All I have to do with this project is sew him up and stuff.

 Fingerless mitts in this gorgeous Carribbean color Knit Picks Swish Worsted. Lovely ribbed pattern happening and a nice quick project. I only need to finish up the second mitt and weave in all ends.

 Ribbed hat worked flat. I find that I sometimes enjoy working with straight needles over circular. Something "old fashioned" and relaxing about it.

Doll worked with wool to be felted. I can't wait to decide what to dress him/her in. :)

My first attempt at an infinity chain scarf/cowl/necklace. I love the colors!

That's all for now folks! I am going to get back to my huge task at hand. Wish me luck!

Love. Peace. Happiness.

Yarn Inventory!!!

Hey Y'all!!!

I've been away for awhile n I've missed blogging!

On Monday I did an inventory of my complete yarn stash. I have decided that for the whole of 2012 I will not be making any new purchases. Instead my goal is to use up atleast half of my stash this year and to donate any skeins that I can. This goal hopefully will be pretty attainable seeing that I have 3bins and 2bags full of just yarn :) I love yarn but I love knitting, crocheting, and crafting with it a lot more so I plan to get busy!

The above pic is page 1 of 5 GASP!!! :)

I already have 2 new projects on the needles this new year and am the jumping up and down type of excited for lots more! However, I do need to finish up all my WIP's as stated in my previous post. In fact, expect my WIP post to be up soon. I really need some accountability to finish up the projects that have just been hangin around on needles and hooks needed to make (and complete) even more projects :) 

And of course I can't finish this post without showing atleast one finished product:
100% wool skinny reversible rib knit scarf. I love how warm this scarf is and how simple it was to create. I have it listed for sale in my brand new Etsy shop!

Love. Peace. Happiness.
