Supporting the (knitting) Economy..

First of all...another finish! I told you this one would be fast!



Now it's time to get crackin' on the border. It's actually going faster than I anticipated...it's just I don't have enough of one color WDW... so that presents a dilemma since dye lots vary so much with over-dyed floss. So I will have to buy enough to frog and redo the 2 square border...

OK..now for the knitting economy. One of my lovely daughters got me a gift certificate to Knit Picks, so I went hog wild and got me the clear acrylic options set (which I realize is not in the picture...) plus, some circular needles for sock knitting, and yarn for the Alluvia Felted Tote.
And some Chroma yarn for the Inside-Out Scarf.


And then for my lovely Joann Fabrics haul. All their yarn was half price, plus I found a coupon code for free shipping! This will be used for the Brooklyn Tweed Umaro Throw.


High hopes for the new year!
