I bought some cute vinyl from a designer that had leftover from an upholstery job, and made some card case wallets. Zippies coming up next!

And I am mostly done with a pair of socks (just need to do the second heel), knit toe up with an afterthought heel, knit two at a time using a long circular (magic loop.) Got a little bit of laddering, maybe using a longer circular than what I was using would improve the next pair. Trying to use up yarn in my stash. Pattern is Vanilla Socks (Toe Up & Afterthought Heel) Ravelry link

Also helping work on a project for a SXSW client. Weather has been amazing, temperate after a few cold days, but it’s going to rain over the weekend/next week, wrapping up some painting and staining outdoors.

Winter Reset

Had a good show with the Blue Genie Art Bazaar and am waiting for the weather to warm enough to used my glue and get back to working in the studio, it’s been cold and rainy. I have a few more small Star flap bags in progress ready to join inner/linings to outer sand add straps, but the glue doesn’t behave right when it’s too cold and rainy, since I do my gluing work outside for ventilation. So I’ve been knitting some and planning for the new year. I have some stock left, and will be building up stock again for the upcoming Blue Genie May Market.

Here are some projects I recently finished:

Movie Star keyhole scarf in tumeric dyed yarn I bought on a Philadelphia trip
Thrive Shrug in a yarn I bought at Austin Creative Reuse
Vivid Valentine (by Vickie Howell) wrap I made using Madeline Tosh yarn, which was a dream to knit with
Quick and Dirty 2-needle Fishnet Stockings (by Joann McGowan) in Madeline Tosh
I learned to crochet and made this granny square scarf. I think my tension is pretty good!
