Cozy Up and Crafting

It's the second (was the first when I started drafting this) chilly weekend of the season here in Portland and I'm ready to cozy up with my knitting and crochet.

Last week, I enjoyed knitting at jury duty and making progress on the test knitting. This week I was frantically trying to finish the same project and it is thankfully drying.

I have a confession to make. I ordered yarn today. I vow that it's my last purchase for an entire 12 months. No more yarn! There are too many things and I want to make from all the supplies and I need to refocus.

Back to my confession, I ordered a yarn pack for the upcoming Scheejes blanket KAL. It's crochet and it's such a fabulous design. I had want to buy a kit when I first saw the pictures of the design, but they weren't available yet. Thanks to Instagram, I was reminded of my hope for a kit and was excited to find the color scheme that I wanted was still available. It might seem like the least exciting, but Midnight is so gorgeous.


The color change that is part of the yarn is truly beautiful, but having some basic contrast and neutrals really speaks to me. I'll start this a few weeks late and it will largely be a winter project instead of fall as the intent of this project. If you're interested in the project (it is a free pattern!), check out the designer, Tatsiana's blog post at LillaBjornCrochet for the pattern description and inspiration.

If you're working on the WestKnit's MKAL. I hope you're having a blast.

Happy crafting. Have a great week.
