I am half way through my vacation and it is just flying by! I have played with the kids, worked on felting 2 purses, started a 3rd purse to felt, worked on some One Stroke Painting, worked on my quilt. I have so many projects to work on I dont know what to do first! I think today I am going to work on finishing my One Stroke One Stitch Rag Quilt. When it is done I will take a picture to post on the blog. I think after that I am going to work on a ONE STITCH project. I have the materials for one that is an ocean landscape scene. That is about as close to the ocean as I will get this year (sorry Old Orchard Beach, maybe next year!)
It may seem crazy to be quilting and knitting while it is warm and stormy outside but once the snow flies, it is too late to whip together a blanket or a sweater (ok you can whip up mittens and hats).
Later I will post a scarf pattern for all to try. There is an example of it in my slideshow. It is an irish knit scarf and it is really simple. I would go ahead and get your materials now. You will need one skein of Lion Brand Wool Ease Thick and Quick (any color you like). You will also need one pair of knitting needles size 15 or size 17.







Check back for the pattern in a day or so! Even though this is a scarf for the coldest days of winter, it is a nice short project you can take with you anywhere, even the beach!
Happy Crafting!
