[NFB-Blind-Crafters] Successful Saturday

There's no better way that I can think of than to craft away on a freezing
and windy day, big warm smile.

Yay!  Isn't it nice when you make up your mind to something and get
rolling?!

I finally settled on a pattern that I am satisfied with for a Dallas Cowboys
scarf that I am making on the total of 24 peg long loom.

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've made all the pieces of my leprechaun and can start sewing him together,
though I might make him arms so he can hold a pot of gold.  The pattern
doesn't have arms, but they should be easy.  I could knit them as I-cord,
instead of crocheting.

I also cast on a throw, though I'm cutting down the pattern from being a
whole afghan.  The original pattern has a border that's knit separate and
sewn on all around.  That sounds like a lot of work.  I'm thinking about
what I can just knit on as I go.  And figuring out what to leave out when I
shrink the pattern.  The perils of deciding not to follow a pattern exactly.
