[NFB-Blind-Crafters] Successful Saturday

[Debra Trevino]

Seems to me that organizing craft supplies is a never ending but enjoyable way to spend time.

I have lots of yarn, some of it one skein in a particular color. Many of those get worked up into Granny squares so that, if I need a gift, all I have to do is take a neutral color and put the squares together.

Otherwise, I try to separate brands and colors into plastic bags and slip a braille label in with it.

I have plastic file crates filled with yarn.

Here’s the thing, though. I often can’t decide what to do with all that glorious yarn!

Blessings,

Deb Trevino

Good job, Jolene!  I’m working on organizing, too.  It makes such a difference.
Whole containers of wolf and pawprint stuff—cool!

Good job, Tracy!
Neet idea about being able to change the decorations!

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 figured out a slightly confusing crochet pattern and crocheted 2 snowflakes.  A while ago, I knitted a hat and put some buttons on it so I could attach whatever decorations I fancied.  I used it for my Halloween cow costume, and now I’ve taken off the horns and ears and attached my 2 snowflakes.  I think it’s cute.  And, for Spring, I’ll crochet some flowers and leaves to put on it, and a crochet rose.  Très chic.  Well, I think so.
