I spent most of this weekend puttering around....and avoiding starting on any large, ambitious projects. To sate my desire to start knitting a second blanket, I decided that I would reorganize my yarn and tidy it up, so that it was all ready when I was really ready to start (which was not this weekend -- I really need to resume work on Jumbo this week. My holiday is over :-) )
The good news is that my long-dyeing ball winder has suddenly gotten a second wind and is no longer making increasingly poorer balls. Another good discovery is that a little bit of washi tape does a great job of keeping slightly wonky balls or slippery balls contained. When it was all back in the bins I was surprised at how much they've dwindled with the knitting of the blanket....and I'm sure there will be pretty slim pickings once a second blanket has been finished.
Gotta jet now, though....today is also my first day back at work - but I was determined to get a quick post out before I head out the door. Happy Monday!
Good Grief! You are just too organized. Lol Your blanket turned out beautifully. Love the colors and textures in it.
ReplyDeleteI love the finished blanket and the way you keep your yarn balls tidy. JB
