I'm Just Not Feeling It ~ Yarn Talk

Hi Guys! If you're here because you watched my YouTube video, thanks for coming! If you just happened to stumble on my blog or got notification I actually posted again, Im glad you stopped by for a visit. I'm in some sort of Fall Funk or something and just can't seem to get things (making videos and crochet) accomplished. I've missed blogging too. I used to do it a lot before I decided to dabble in vlogging. Sometimes vlogging is easier and sometimes blogging is easier. Both take time for editing but vlogging just seems harder to do sometimes. Plus I have been vlogging fairly consistently since April 2017. Do you suppose it's burn out? Anyway On to what fiber arts I DID accomplish this past week. This is ALL I have accomplished this past week. It's some left over Red Heart Super Saver Candy Print and Red Heart Super Saver Black yarn.  I think it turned out pretty cute.  It's just a basic beanie with the first row (of 30 stitches) single crocheted around an elastic ponytail band.  I also used the "Chain Tracks Stitch" From the Sheepishly Sharing website.


This picture created quite a stir over on my Instagram this past weekend.  You guys don't do this? I do it all the time! LOL!   This is the next to largest Boye round knitting loom.  They work great for holding my tablet!  I also use the smallest one as well. Guess I think outside the box sometimes.  The smallest loom will also hold my phone, although it doesn't sit between the pegs as nicely with the case on it.  Still it will hold it upright for me to watch videos etc.  Here I was watching a movie on YouTube as I was crocheting.


What am I working on?  I have a tapestry dice bag I am working on for a tournament prize in 2 weeks.  I also need to find and finish any of my purple hats for the Click for Babies collecting at my local library.  I haven't seen anything posted on their web page or Facebook about it so I contacted them.  They said hats need to be turned in by the 21st.  I also borrowed my friend's Knitting Board double knit loom.  I wanted to "try before I buy".  She brought it to me and helped me get started on a hat.  So far I like it but I'm not sure.  I will  let you know when I get the hat finished if I decide to put it on my wish list.

That's all I have for now.  Thanks for stopping by.  I'd love comments and questions and for you bookmark my blog to come back, as I plan on spending a little more time here.  I've fixed up my side-bar with all my favorite yarn shopping (usually just window sopping) sites and my favorite vlog and blog sites that have an RSS feed.
