New Craft Idea

So I was going to try my hand at knitting shawls for my younger two for Christmas. But honestly, that's going to take too long with the projects that I already have going. So I changed directions for that. Instead, I'm thinking of getting some lightweight fleece and some heavier cotton poly blend, for the different seasons. Then it's a simple pattern to create a fabric shawl. I can add some fringes at the bottom. And I think I will add in a button and buttonhole so that they can keep them on when their hands and arms get to flying around as little children are wont to do.

I'm excited to start this project. But first I need the money to go get the fabric and some corresponding yarn or thread. Buttons as well. They'd have to be fairly big buttons. And choosing the fabric and colors will be important. I know K3 likes green, but I want to incorporate some other colors in there. Until about six months ago, her favorite color was blue. Now it's green. So a little variety won't hurt.

And Yet Another Blog

Okay, so I'm getting blog happy here. But it occurred to me as I was posting last night, that I've taken up a lot of crafty stuff again. I don't consider cooking and baking to be a hobby craft, just a hobby and very necessary thing. But I would, since i have so many projects on the go, keep a record of them. So posts and pictures seemed like a good idea. Also give me an idea of where I am with things. So once I get that organized, I can keep track of it here.
