R&R, But Not Much Else!

Yes, I actually have nothing to show for myself after this weekend. I know, shocking, or at least unusual for me! I do feel rested and like my batteries are recharged, though. And I had a lot of fun looking through my stash of both yarn and patterns. The problem I kept running into, though, was that I have yarn for projects I'm not ready to start and projects I want to make that I don't have yarn for. So there might just be a shopping expedition in my near future! And then we had a great time at guild yesterday, which helped me recharge, too.

I did finish a hat and work on a scarf yesterday that will be donated to the Salvation Army in November. (Pictures when the scarf is done.) And that reminds me that I haven't yet blogged about Dee's "60 Scarves in 60 Days" challenge. The challenge began on September 1 and will run until October 31 and involves making a scarf or scarves to be donated to the charity of your choice. Since I should be making any number of scarves for charity during this time frame, I'm definitely in on the challenge. Last year, participants actually donated 80 scarves, and I'm sure Dee would like to exceed that number this year. So, if you are able to make a scarf for charity during the next 2 months, won't you join us? There's even a drawing for a prize this year! I ask you - can it get any better than that?
