| Creepy Kids Tin |
It's a little tin full of fabric clips. The kids on the tin are pretty darn creepy but the clips are fantastic! I just wish I remembered ordering them. I can't decide if I should be embarrassed or worried that I don't remember ordering them. And why in the world did I choose the tin with the creepy, chubby-cheeked, weird-eyed, lipstick wearing kids on it? I see Amazon has several different choices and some of the others are adorable. Oh well. Even though I have no recollection of ordering them, the clips are great and will come in super handy when sewing up sweater seams. I may even dig out my old Honeycomb sweater (last mentioned here) out of the UFO pile and finish it just so I can use the clips.
So, what else have I been up to besides possibly shopping in my sleep?

| Hat in progress |
I've been shopping at Knit Picks. Something new and different for me. Ha ha. I finally ordered myself a new yarn bowl. My MIL had given me a ceramic one for Christmas years ago but it got dropped and a chunk broke off. I was able to glue it back together but it wasn't the smoothest of joins and the yarn would sometimes snag on it. Anyway, I'm now the proud owner of a beautiful and extremely smooth, snag-free, wooden yarn bowl.
I'm also knitting another hat. My poor Etsy shop is practically empty and the Christmas shopping season is almost upon us. (Scary thought!!) I need to buckle down and focus on knitting for the shop for the next few weeks. Poor Sarah. I'm never going to finish her blanket.

I am doing a blanket for my youngest, but it has been pushed aside for sewing right now. She did comment on it last night, so maybe I should try to get a few more squares done!
ReplyDeletePersonally I like the tin but ordered shoes that were completely not my size. It had to be a mistake, right? I just got the Knitpicks catalog and am afraid to open it. With the stress in the world and losing Max I think I might order three of everything.
ReplyDeleteI like the tin it looks antique to me :) I am in hat mode but unfortunately I haven't knit much these days because of a house full of visitors.
ReplyDeleteI have never heard of those kind of clips. I imagine they would be nice for sweater seams. Enjoy! Oh, and knitpicks is such a help to my knitting!
