Cabin Fever is in full swing!
Thankfully, I have been keeping my hands busy with a new project.
I signed up for Ravellenic Games 2014, an Olympic Party on Ravelry.
I decided for my challenge I am going to make a blanket.
49 squares in 16 days. I know that is a tall order, and I am pretty sure that I am not going to complete the project in time, but it will be interesting to see how many squares I do manage to get done.
The snow isn't going anywhere anytime soon, so in the meantime...
You will find me knitting squares!
Anyone else signed up for the Ravellenic Games?
Sounds like a good way to spend your time being snowed in! I can't wait to see how much progress you make on the blanket.
ReplyDeleteOh that sounds exciting I wish I could knit with real wool maybe I will find one that does not itch for me. I cannot wait to watch your progress. Another step up from the hat:) Yeah hug B
ReplyDeleteThis is only 20 percent wool yarn. I wish I had some wool yarn from my sheep to knit something. I have some, I have spun up, but still need to ply it. It isn't the best looking :)
DeleteI may send some wool out after shearing and have some yarn made :)
Have you tried Marino, Button? That's pretty soft and I don't find it itchy.
DeleteA blanket sounds like a great late winter project. And I love Wool-Ease yarn; I have a large container stuffed with about 30 skeins of it. Hope your project gets off to a great start.
ReplyDeleteIt's always exciting to start a new project. Good luck with your blanket!
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun challenge. I bet your blanket turns out great!
ReplyDeleteHow's it going? Or are you out snorgling lambies :-D.
