someone once told me loom knitting could only be done by those with sight and then i found this group where there are tons of knitters who are blind and now i loom knit like crazy!

dont let anyone tell you that you cant do something. give it a try and you will find out as you did! totally awesome job!

I definitely feel you, Lovette. I had to frog again this week, but it is all part of the process of learning a new pattern.

I finished a square for a blanket with the trinity stitch.

It took many weeks to do this with a lot of starting over.

Hi Jolene, glad that you found the yarn, yes, crafting can sort of make things better.

not sure how successful this will sound. i had to give up my seeing eye dog and she went to her new home on thursday. i have been looking all over for some yarn of a particular color to make a scarf for my brother in law but could never find it in any stores and i finally found it in the quantity i need and all from the same dye lot. 

i like to do repetitive tasks like knitting to relax and try to deal with life. i did the same after my brother died. i was looking for a project to do that would help me through this difficult time and wanted to give this as a gift at christmas. so now i have the yarn and will start making the scarf.

it will be a speckled green and speckled black stripes.

i made him a hat like this and this will match that.

Nothing. I am debating what I want to do and need to sort yarn. Hopefully I will start that process in a week or two. We are  looking at traveling in the future.

Good Morning Jeanette, Amen and Amen! Carry on as they say in the Army and I am sure other Branches of the Military.

How are you and John getting on, and, what have you been working on lately?

I am currently working on some loom Knitted scarves, and, in between them, I am also working on a simple Garter Knitted scarf, trying to bust some of my stash of yarn, big smile.

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 joined a new knitting group this week.  It’s small, but hopefully it will thrive and grow. 

And I had blood work done this week, and I’ve gotten my sugar and cholesterol much more in hand.  Yay!

Tracy
