A good old rummage…
I am visiting nooks and crannies around the house that have been neglected for years. Hence …
A number of years ago I bought a load of cross-stitch kits to make my own Christmas cards. I remember doing a few and I remember the delight on parents’ faces on receiving them but, sadly, they were very time-consuming so the bulk of them were stuffed into a cupboard and forgotten about ๐ฃ. I have done a couple in the hot weather, good advice from Mildlygranola who suggested sewing was a more bearable craft during a heatwave ๐.
On the WIP front I have nearly completed a baby blanket.
The interesting colour scheme is due to the fact that I am using ends of balls. Another 2 rows of trebles and a couple of rows of doubles to finish off โกโกโก
And of course…
there is another scarf on the go.

I like the “interesting” color palette!

Thank you. I used the word ‘interesting’ rather than saying what I had but I stuck to shades of yellow and blue rather than attempting to make a rainbow work and looking like I had been to the fair! ๐ช๐ก๐ข

You and I are so much alike! I buy kits from charity shops and when I get sick of knitting I make a few cards. I buy the tri fold cards too when I see them. All my spare oddments of thread I keep in a bag and make small things with them. If I do a Christmas fayre I take a few cards with me and any which don’t sell get sent to relatives and friends.

I was beginning to think that I was a lost cause! So reassuring to know there are others out there with the same habit โก
