Very little yarn craft ….
I have been absent from these pages for a week or two. Work has been horribly busy and I have hardly had a chance to click my needles together and I have to admit to missing the benefits.
I have made this storeage basket.

It’s a very chunky yarn that I bought from Aldi a couple of years ago and a size 10mm hook. I have actually managed to hook this in the round. I think the thicker yarn and hence bigger stitches helped me with my counting. I made it up as I went along but ended up with 96 stitches.

It’s going to be a toy basket. Tyson the tiger looks quite comfy in it.
Hoping that the next week or two will be less hectic and I can get a bit done on my nephew’s cable aran.
Woolly wishes,
Jane ♡♡♡

Well I suppose I could resurrect my bag of bunny bits and fill it up with bunnies. A couple of bunnies multiply quite quickly 🐰🐰🐰

Really cute!!! I have taken a hiatus from knitting myself. I was missing it so I pulled one of the 3 sweaters I have almost finished out of the closet to work on. *sigh* After 3 attempts to get my sleeves going right I shoved it back in the closet with the others. Perhaps I need a couple of quick and easy projects to get me going again?

I have usually got 3 or 4 projects on the go so I can pick and choose. It’s nice to have something simpler on hand when stressed so I don’t need to focus too much ❤️

Me, too. I’ve been finishing up my projects so these were the last without starting something new.

My dear friend: a close friend of mine once sent me this ‘saying’
“ENOUGH”
What I have, is enough
What I am, is enough
What I do, is enough
What I’ve achieved, is enough.
You DO a LOT regularly and we are all very happy to see your progress on various projects. Do what you can WHEN you can – we’re just here to enjoy YOU! Hugs!

I love that basket. I bought one like it as part of fundraising. I like it to store all my balls of Fixation yarn since that’s my go to yarn for a quick pair of socks/anklets. Yours is very cute with the bright pink edge.
