Knitty update for Sept 2018

Seems I've neglected this blog long enough...I am usually much better about updating my current WIPS or FO'S on Instagram or FB. My user name is still the same, WeBeYarnin. So, please come check me out there. 

Time to share some pics of my FO's in no certain order. Here are a few that I could find...enjoy!

This is an ongoing project that I've been working on inconsistently for roughly 20 years. I know, ouch! Once I had my daughter (almost 16 years ago) my time was less and then knitting passion took over!! Lol so, I've found it really difficult to find the right shades of floss once I run out...so the colors are all over the map now. Lol oh well, it won't win a ribbon. That's ok. One day, I'll finish it. 😋

A squishy cowl. I honestly do not remember the yarn label. It's very pretty and cheery looking. Love it!! 

This shawl was a desperate attempt to get something on the needles as I was in a frenzy with no projects going on. I used some of my handspun yarn as well as acrylic yarn. Not really my colors, but maybe a gift later?? 

I really love this hat...in my own handspun yarn. But, as I wore it while we were camping it kept sliding down over my forehead. Sooo, I decided to rip it out and knit it up again using less cast on stitches. Perfect!! #BarleyHat

A hat and cowl set. 

I promised my daughter a sweater that fits for school this summer. I've knit her a few sweaters lately, but they were really too big for her. I love how this one turned out! It's longer as well so she can wear leggings with it. The lace is so pretty and feminine. And she loves it! 

Made a couple new kitchen towels. Made another with blue up top and red on the bottom as well. Really cute. What I'd do different next time?? Make the strap longer. It's a tight fit putting over my oven door handle. 

I've knit quite a few pairs of socks lately, but I need to find the pics. Also, I bought my very first sock knitting project bag!!! Love it!! #myneedlecrafts and it's very well made!! I had a hard time choosing which design to get as they were all super cute!!! 

Well, that's it for now...come find me on Facebook and Instagram. I've got a small knitting/crochet group on Facebook as well. Come join us small but mighty Crafters!!!😙

Thrumming Around...

Knitting up thrummed slippers. Looks complicated, but it's actually very easy.
