Bitten by the Yarn Bug

A friend recently told me it was bound to happen. But resistance was futile, so yes, a complete and utter indulgence into knitting with a side of crochet is responsible for the cobwebs growing over my sewing table and machine.



Not that my love for sewing has diminished. It has, however, taken a new direction. Lately I have been thinking about quilting. Just thinking at this point, with minor planning. I have two designs in mind for wall hangings for my home and have been playing around with color schemes. In addition to that, I have been DVRing and watching a few quilting shows for techniques. As for sewing garments, I have two new patterns I am itching to get fabrics for, but more on that in an upcoming post. In the meantime, it's back to work with the yarn on my knitting needles-- three pairs of socks, one sweater and one lace swatch.
