Whatcha working on?

Anything good?

It seems like this time of year I always get the itch. Weird, I know, since it is summer.

A friend of mine is doing a Pi Shawl, which inspired me to use up a cone of denim colored yarn that I have had forever.

I am thinking about this:

A double plus is the pattern is written out line by line. :D

Other than that it is the never ending novelty scarves. Because it is absolutly no concentration required.

I like that shawl pattern alot Red. I just might bookmark that pattern.

I'm not working on anything right now. I usually don't in the summer...too hot.

I know. Go figure that that is when I always want to start crap.

I am the Queen of starting and never finishing though. Hopefully I can make it thru this one.

I'm working on a baby blanket for one of my DD's friends. Plus my granddaughter, Taylor, is having me make her some flip flops with eyelash yarn crocheted around the straps so that they look furry.

For some strange reason I am very anti feather and fan. And I don't know why.

I learnt to crochet last week and have been making everyone scarfs to the point of insanity.

It is winter here and cold and I figure this is the best way to not eat while I hide out at home with my blankie watching AU Big Brother.

You'll have to start making granny squares. Then you can cover everyone in afghans. :p

It is about 20C max in winter in Brisbane and down to about 5C at night. (70F and 40F ... I think) :)
