The Yardage Sprint
So my goals for the year were to use up 150 yards of material & 150 skeins of yarn, and while I am nowhere NEAR being close to either one, I realized that I was really close to using up more fabric than I did last year, so yesterday--taking a break from the holiday party marathon--I rounded up and finished this which looks a bit like a circus tent, to be honest. I really REALLY thought the material was nice & light and drapey until I tried this on....which incidentally left me with an odd craving for salted peanuts in the shell..... BUT Andy likes it, so I can wear it around the house, which is fine. I used up 3 yards of material on it, so one more project finished should put me over the 75 yard mark--leaving me halfway to my goal and at least better than last year. We've reached the "grasping at straws" part of my goals.... I think I'm going to try felting the mittens--largely because it would involve knitting 1 mitten and not 2, but we're enjoyi...
