[NFB-Blind-Crafters] Successful Saturday

[Ericka]

Glad you had such a great time last week! Does the robot vacuum try to eat yarn or little bits of it that you forget to pick up? I would think it would stop it and it’s tracks just like when a vacuum cleaner of a bigger size pushed by you sucks up a sock or something.

Today the biggest success was getting up at 8:45 AM! I have since gotten some work done. I tried to do a patchwork blanket and it’s getting there shall we say. I tried to make all the squares in assemble first but good plans don’t always work out. Let’s just say because sometimes your squares are all the same size and sometimes they aren’t. So I’m trying to make sure that I have something that  something that looks decent not star shaped by accident if you know what I mean.

Have a great one, everybody! It’s gonna be nippy here and possibly rain so there’s no point to going outdoors. Better to stay in a knit! I did find some stuff surprisingly at Walmart yesterday to make that blanket for little newly arrived Viviane. We’ll see how that goes! I’m hoping to start it this weekend. I think I’m going to because I’m not sure what the thinner yarn. I’m going to be able to crochet well. I can always start and see what happens.

I learned interesting things myself, hung out with old friends and met new ones, and got a lot of knitting done on the throw I’m working on.  Success all around.
