Remember this post, Impulse buy, crochet lace ?
I've had time to have a play around with this. I will not be buying any more of the magazines as previously stated. I probably will not be making anymore crochet lace unless the pattern really grabs me as I now remember why I haven't done it for year.
I really don't enjoy it that much !!
I have the house to myself today and the sun is shinning. The domestic goddess part of me loaded the washing machine, the fibre hippy filled a couple of buckets with yarn to soak.
I also took the opportunity to was and block some knit wear as the forecast is back to winter in a couple of days and I need to clear the decks a bit.
Soaked yarn was popped into the dye pots, I can only do 200gm at a time but I have a good routine worked out so should get through 600-800gm today and possibly the same tomorrow fingers crossed
I have other yarn activities lined up, trying out the crochet lace and winding some lace bobbins so I have a demo strip of lace on the go for the next few weeks whenever I go out.
I do have some prepped fibre to spin but its doubtful that I will get round to that today as I have a zoom meeting this afternoon and possibly a zoom craft meeting tonight.
Todays impulse buy is this magazine
Firstly I must point out that I have no intension of buying anymore of this part work but at 99p it should, hopefully, occupy me for a few minutes.
I can crochet a granny square, have been able to since I was a youngster. I also remember crocheting doilies as a youngster as well but in recent times, except for a shawl, I haven't really touched it.
We will see how I feel once I've had a look at it. Don't hold your breath!!
