Project progress
Posted by Alli on December 3, 2007
I spent a lot of time this weekend working on my crochet project. I plowed through two skeins and will probably need to use three more before having a finished product.
Yesterday I went to the craft store that is closing and picked through the remnants of the left over yarn. The bins were mainly yarns that handworkers tend to find difficult to work with- eyelash, fun fur, ribbon, and thin mohair-like yarns. I found two more skeins of the free stuff I received last Thursday so I can possibly make a matching hat or fingerless mittens.
One of the great finds I got at the craft store was a pattern book with the exact shawl/ poncho that I was working on. If I like the poncho I might try making a new one, possibly one with cables, since I like that look. It would take more yarn and detail than what I am doing now, but I think it would be worth it.
Man, I am really happy to be crocheting again. It makes me feel really good to create something.
