Did y'all find any yarn deals this past week or weekend? My LYS had all kinds of rewards, discounts, and a free bag. Just cute stuff. My LYS Proprietor has started dying her own line of yarn. Her sense of color is fantastic. This is the site for that and related merch. https://www.morpholana.com/collections/merchandise

I hope your yarny projects find good homes this holiday season. She loves it. I am okay with that.

What are you working on? First fair isle colorwork is coming along nicely. All colorwork rows are done. On to adjusting for length and then ribbing the edge.

I am so over that project. BUT I really really want to use the yarn for me. I bought it on my birthday. It's wool alpaca blend and super soft. I am just thinking about the best way to make that happen. I set that aside and picked up L&T Facets in Dark Ocean (acrylic). Last night I started on a Tunisian Crochet pocket scarf. If I have enough yarn I will make a hood. I looked up a few patterns and decided to wing it with the Tunisian simple stitch. Here's the first few rows. CH41, 40 TSS. Picked up from Michael's. I have 3 Skeins. Fairly sure that's enough for the scarf and hood. I have a second color for trim in grey (2 skeins). I plan to edge it in grey, maybe make pockets in the grey. This should conserve enough of the Dark Ocean colorway for the hood.

Are y'all working on any gifts? What are you making? I have in progress three gift boxes for others. Two for fellow fiber artists that I am loading up with goodies. Including yarn from my stash. One for my sisters with 3D printed trinkets. At the same time, I have a ball of yarn to find a pattern for that my sister selected. It's about 730 meters, of a merino wool and silk blend. It is fingering weight. She picked this color from my stash and this is all I have. She asked for a work friendly shawl or wrap. So I am planning to cast on a last shawl. I have four free patterns I am looking at for that. This swallowtail shawl is my first choice. I have to read through the pattern to make sure. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/swallowtail-shawl [knit] If I have time I will make a wrap for my niece. This is the yarn she selected. It's a Superwash Merino Wool, Nylon, Stellina blend in sock weight. Since this is only 438 yards I may add a second color to stretch it a bit or make the work thicker so it works up faster. Here's my idea for that one. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/ginkgo-shoulderette-shawl [knit] And just because I am a glutton for punishment I have a 6-day Star Blanket past due for a baby delivered right after I had surgery. This is that one. https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/6-day-star-blanket I have a bamboo cotton blend for this one. [crochet]
