Yarn Along



It's that time of year.  Lots of projects being thought up and some started.  Lots of sewing; lots of yarn, a bit of wood and paint.  And pleasant thoughts of recipient to dispel the sense of being overwhelmed. 



Right now I am working on two more yarn hair wigs.  Right now, all you might see is brown.  I see flowers and crowns and lots of colour.  And hopefully they'll be finished on time!  

Also working on lining the finished hats.  With the cold snap we're in (read -20 Celsius) I have been forced to this in a hurry.  I stayed up last night almost until midnight measuring, cutting, sewing and pinning.  I managed to finish one, and the other four are all pinned up and just needing the lining sewed to the hat.  (The polar fleece is so soft and warm!)  

Currently reading From I-ville to You-ville with the kids.  It's such a wonderful book to talk about the virtues or even negative behaviours.  They love little Stubborn and his friend Serenity.  And so do D and I!  

Happy crafting to you!

    1. Can you believe the snow? It's like a blizzard here too! The streets are fully covered and cars are crawling around us. So thankful for a safe, warm and cheerful place right now...

  2. Your little hats are so sweet - They look like they're going to be quite toasty too with the lining. You are one busy lady!

    1. Hehe... busy is a good word for it! I prefer this kind of "busy-ness" to most. Especially if I get to make more fun hats! :)
