I finally got off my duff this morning and took some pictures of some more projects that I have been working on lately.
I started knitting preemie hats this summer, and I got 4 done before my attention drifted.
I came nowhere near finishing the skein of yarn I was using, however, so now I might start a preemie blanket with the same yarn to try and use it up.
I also crocheted a "One Skein Scarf" at the end of September. This one will be donated to my crochet guild for their November sale.
And finally, over the past few days I have crocheted 2 hats and another pair of wrist warmers.
I intended the purple hat to be a chemo hat, since the yarn is soft. However, the hat and wrist warmers look so nice as a set that they might also go into the crochet guild sale. The red hat is toddler sized, on purpose this time since I wanted to finish another partial skein and there was only enough yarn for a small hat. It will probably also be donated to the guild sale.
All this, and my big bag of acrylic yarn still isn't getting any emptier. I may have to rethink this particular stashbusting strategy, because the big bag of yarn is starting to discourage me a little bit! However, it is certainly convenient to have so much yarn sitting right next to my chair, so the big bag of yarn will stay put for now.

Very nice. Hum....wrist warmers...I've not made any of those. How do people wear them? I mean...are they an indoor or an outdoor item?
Thanks for the visit and compliment. I'm not really all that fast, but since I have multiple things going at one time, often I finish up several items collectively too. I sorta like the mental burst I get when I do that.
Anxious to hear more about those wrist warmers, looking at them looks like a great thing to make with odds and ends...is there a particular charity that accepts or needs them?
Thanks
Sandy
