Arm Knitting

Worn out from crocheting doll dresses for Christmas,

I decided to do some Arm Knitting.

I had tried it some months ago and found it to be a fast and fun diversion

and so bought some yarns to play with

but then other needs took up my time.

After Christmas though is a time I try to relax

and just enjoy things that require little to no thought,

like my annual jigsaw puzzle.

There is however, still a quilt in a frame taking up my dining room,

so I decided that was the perfect excuse to just play with some new craft.

I have a few setting around but the two baskets of yarn were taking up the most room

so they were the first choice.

Anyway, here are the results.

The blue and purple cowl

and bronze and brown long scarf

so I could try out both styles. 

Normally I prefer scarves

but with this texture and colors 

the cowl is my favorite.

Now I am back to sewing pants.

I cannot believe I lost weight over the holidays,

but it is certainly motivation for sewing new clothes!
