[NFB-Krafters-Korner] Want to know Wednesday

Hi Diane.
Thanks for using my question, and for reminding me it's Wednesday.  I'm working entirely from home, so only the weekends feel different.  I'm losing track of the days.

I'm trying to fix my Glengarry hat from hell.  I'm stuck in my pulling out--got a knot I can't loosen, and can't run to the yarn store for help.  Eek!  It's Swish superwash wool from Knitpicks.  It has a red, white, and dark blue color band, then the rest is dark blue.  It will be very nice, if I can ever finish it.
So I'm also working on a crochet bonnet from the book Blooming Crochet, available on Bookshare.  I'm using a worsted cotton that the Rainbow color identifier calls purple-grey.  But I've managed to get a knot in that, too.

So I just got some yarn delivered from my local yarn store for a mosaic cowl.  Mosaic is a 2-color fabric that feels a bit like it's been woven.  One of my yarns is 1 ball of a gold wool worsted, and 1 ball of a multi-colored fingering, gold, orange, green, blue, and maybe more.  Should be fun, if I can avoid any more knots.
Tracy

This question comes from Tracy-what are y’all working on during this time of uncertainty?  I finished a blanket for my Mom, which was from “hello”, for a couple years as I kept dropping knitted stitches and that just made a mess, so I got a size P/Q crochet hook and used 1 strand of yarn at a time (when I was knitting, I used 2 strands) and it was so much easier!!!
