2sDay Knitting Projects

It's 2sDay I'm showing you some progress on two projects that I recently shared with you.

The fingerless gloves are finished and I managed to have a bit of yarn left over from the 50 gm. ball of yarn I used.  I was getting a bit worried towards the end as I thought I might run out of yarn.
The lacy scarf is another story. I started it on smaller needles and it looked good but I wanted it to be a bit bigger.  So it was that froggy stitch, rip-it rip-it rip-it and start over.  I'm sure you have done things like that too.  But now I'm realizing I won't have enough yarn to make it as long as I want.  I'm looking around some yarn stores to see if I can get another ball.  I know I won't be able to match the colour lot etc, but I'm sure I can work something out.  If not I'll be looking for a different pattern to use up this lovely yarn.

 
I found another project to start on, some knitted slippers, and I started some sewing projects.  Those ones deserve a whole post to themselves as the sewing machine gave me a lot of grief and it took a couple of days to sort it out.
 
What craft project are you working on?
 
Thanks for visiting today.Have a great 2sDay.

  1. Hi Crafty , Like your projects. The scarf will be lovely when done. Only thing I am working on right now are some dishclothes seems they always run out at the same time.

  3. Beautiful work. The scarf looks lovely - hope you'll be able to find the yarn you need!

    I was almost finished my third sewing project of the year when my sewing machine pedal flunked on me. Since I'm returning to school I decided it wasn't worth fixing until next year.

    BUT, doing a lot of artwork and writing, and thinking of starting a hand-sewing project...

    Thanks for sharing!

  4. I know what you mean about the foot pedal giving out MWebster, that is what happened to me.
