NoThinkum projects for leftover yarns are always nice and even better if they are universally useful. Fingerless mitts are fun to make and great to wear with a bit of cold. I have a bunch of Sirdar Jewelspun left over from sweaters. So I used the Blur pattern and it was fun and the mitts are nicely warm (even if they don't "match").

Today I start weaving the new warp. That warp will finish off the red and a good chunk of the purple.

I decided to “whip up” an alphabet baby quilt. I don’t know if it’s reasonable for me, at least, to think that I can whip up any quilt, but baby quilts are small, I already have a collection of carved alphabet lino blocks. I’m avoiding any curves or y-seam and using fabric from my stash. Plus I have textile block printing ink. Wish me luck!

Getting back my sewing mojo. Made this York Pinafore by Helen’s Closet out of a small piece of denim in my stash. So comfy with enormous pockets (I had to piece fabric together to cut the second pocket). Perfect layering garment for late autumn and winter.

Warp is beamed, 1/3 threaded. Guild exe meeting done. Finally finished that scarf I started knitting last summer, and cast on for another. One way or another I need to use up some of my yarn stash.

Thinking of joining in with this year's by knitting a square every day. Each square will be approx 12cm x 12cm and feature a different pattern or stitch. A good kick start for the king size blanket on my to knit list.

I'm participating in a Frugal Frock Challenge. Unfortunately, I can't find anyone who did it last year so, I have to make my own.

What I remember from last year was that one had to use everything from their stash. No new patterns, no new fabric, and no extra supplies were allowed. Pattern hacking/ Frankensteining and scrap busting is encouraged. The point was to creatively declutter.

Since all my patterns are self drafted, they're already free, but in the spirit of the challenge, I'm gonna Frankenstein some patterns, and use no fabric that's been in my stash for less than six months. Wish me luck.

More snow, with more coming down. Far from the snowcopalypse others deal with but still making life ‘interesting’. While spouse clears the driveway, I have been weaving, lunching, about to head back to the loom. Six towels woven, they will be cut off. Time to change weft colours so it’s a good time to re-tie, work out minor tension issues, begin again.

Managed two towels today. Tomorrow I will weave two more and declare the current warp done. Tuesday I will begin beaming the next. Already have the draft ready and colours chosen.

Nice chat with a friend this morning, then one towel woven. Taking a break, then back to the loom for the second of the day. Hoping to get this warp off the loom by tomorrow.

The last of the , two tote bags (for women of differing tastes) and a lavender bag. I have enjoyed the marathon but very glad to put the sewing machine away for a bit.

Hemming in the guild room while bath tub guy installs new tub surround at home. One towel done. Lots left to do. Photo won’t load so you’ll have to take my word for it.

I’ve been fighting the with a project. Grasping at a spark of serotonin (using up my old boring yarn to make room for new exciting yarn).
