I can't remember how long ago I received a good sized bin of yarn and other accessories from my grandma. I used some of the Aran colored yarn to make a blanket for Dizzy last summer, but had not dug that deep into the tub.
I was downstairs looking for something else last week and got the wild hair to go through the tub and see what all was in it....
That was an adventure!
I need to take up knitting!
Partial projects. I wish I knew who she was starting them for and what they were going to be!
Miscellaneous supplies
The chunky yarns
The multi-colored yarns
White-ish yarns
Doily or bookmark yarns
Instructions-some hand written and others typed.
Miscellaneous colors
Solid colors
And we had a yarn thief who ran away with two small skeins (I let him have those two little ones, he shared with Minnie)
So now I'm trying to decide what to do next (besides more baby blankets for new babies) and have put several knitting books on hold to see if I can figure out how to knit without an instructor trying not to laugh at me. We'll see. I'll share some pictures of the early attempts....
Be Happy! Be Healthy! Be sure to manage some mischief!
don't know how much help I'll be in 'teaching' knitting, but will be glad to lend assistance. Actually, a great way to start to learn is doing the towels like Elaine makes, but with the yarn you have you can make blocks you can crochet together and make a throw with.
