March 2020

A Marchly recap:

Both calendar cross-stitch samplers I am working on got completed this month. I am loving the Cute Houses one and I am a little nervous about the Cute Animals sampler because seeing the white thread against the project linen makes me believe I didn't select a colour with enough contrast, I find the (made-up) work Pumarch hard to read. I'm going to give that a ponder.

This month I finished my Magpie Tendency by Skeinanigans. This was a very fun knit with clever construction and I enjoyed knitting it, but again my own lack of understanding of my own taste has bit me again. This is not a garment I would wear, I came to the realization at some point that I hate wearing t-shirts for whatever reason (one of the reasons that Summer is so hard for me), so why did I think I would enjoy wearing this? Maybe it was more that I knew I would enjoy knitting it. The yarn I used was Crafty That Way in the colourway Blue Razzleberry Process knitter over Project knitters, raise your hands (to the frog pile).

That's it - Happy crafting! Nic ♥
