Hi Ericka.

Picking things up and getting organized counts for a lot.  It makes everything easier in the long run.

I did a little knitting today, but mostly I’ve just been going around the house gathering up things and finally getting somewhat organized. I am glad you found your needle Tracy. Losing things is really frustrating. And not everything of course is cheap enough to just replace a last item.

 

Glad you got your bracelet finished. I lurk, but don’t always respond around here. Take care all.

Tracy,

That sounds so nice! I would love to learn how to make them.

It’s Successful Saturday!  Have you started or finished a project, or achieved a goal?  Share it with us and we’ll celebrate with you.

 

I finished my kumihimo flat braided bracelet.  It came out nice.  I put a loop on one end and sewed a nice button to the other end to close the bracelet.  I used variegated rainbow-colored cord and a pale blue button. 

I think it would be a nice bracelet for a young person, though I’ve been wearing it myself and like it.  It’s light and dainty. 

Now I’m working on the same bracelet but with beads.  Putting the beads on the strings is a bit of a chore, since the holes aren’t big enough to handle the string doubled on a needle.

 

Oh, and I dropped a needle, but I found it, after a lot of searching.  Needles hide when they’re dropped.

Tracy
