SHEs Organized

Dgds took 99% of art supplies and art books I had collected for them from yard sales.

I have wool out to card to use on the new to me spinning wheel I bought this week. Ihave plyed what I had spun up but may have to redo that because it may have been plyed the wrong way. I am still on a learning curve how this one works. With two treddles.

I began on a granny square blanket -- one huge square from a huge ball of multicolor yarn -- in June when we went north to visit our girls and to pick up the loom from the older one's house and deliver it to the younger one's house -- but I've not touched the project all last month and need to pull it out and get at it again -- I hope it lasts me through September's travels but if not I will have a small needlepoint tucked into the bag to take up. And they sell yarn back east also -- there's always that possibility.

I carded a batch of jacobs fleece yesterday glad to have that done now it is ready to spin. I have white fine scoured merino wool to card up still. (Great ex. For arms.)

I started a rainbow colored hot pad.

Worked on a market bag had to rip out most of what I did over the weekend to correct a bit. It is a bday gift for my dsis in Nov.

Dgs-turning-11-Oct. 13, is making Origami in the Bunny Room at the desk now, with an enormous book of mine. I got it at Costco, several years ago and my Dgs's get more use out of it, when they visit by themselves, so they can concentrate without the entire family of 9 in the midst.

Also, Dgs is reading 2 novels. I asked him if he had bookmarks, he did not, so I cut orange card stock, put a kitty sticker on 1, and a puppy sticker on the other. They're in the books on the Bunny Room desk. These are fun things that Gma's get to do for their grandchildren, which they'll always remember. ♥

I'll try to crochet this evening. Have been having a sore thumb, so had to take a 2-3-day break from it.

I cannot do any crafting bc surfaces all need attn in there so I am sorting out what I can let go of for clean surfaces I have reclaimed the ironing. Board at least it is a start!

Will try to crochet on and off today on Dgs-5.5's afghan.

Am getting an inkling to finish a kitchen crochet Christmas project, too. Haven't decided yet. I don't want to have too many projects going at one time, you know?

I have 2 pr. of capri lenth pants to hem. I want to do up a thing like crochet hook holder for my diabetic supplies to hold meter strips vile of insulin needles lancet device the one I that goes with my meter will. Not hold the vile ect.

Before I sew I will look at kids pencil cases those have worked in the past.

I've been working on Dgs-5.5 Christmas afghan this evening. The yarn tangled into a mess. DH has been helping me untangle it. He's got 1 ball made, had to cut the yarn, and now is rolling up ball #2. I finished a red row, added 2 navy rows and 1 forest green row. Next row will be soft medium brown. It sure will be a nice afghan for a boy.
