Or craft that you finished?
I've got far too many projects on the go from crocheting, knitting, journal, writing,sewing, gardening.
However I completed a knitted/crochet cushion cover yesterday, feeling mighty good.
Next I'm going to complete a crochet mat for outside...the paracord is tough going though but I'm going to preserve.
So over to you lovely fabbers.

I have my moments sewing, but they tend to be, repairs or alterations rather than something from scratch.
The Mario quilt sounds superb! |

"Crocheted a scarf recently, only just learned to do it & loving it! Currently making a blanket for my baby goddaughter "
Well done It's really quite addictive isn't it.
I actually prefer to crochet then knit. The item gets finished quicker I find.
I bet the blanket will be put to good use too, that's a wonderful gift |

I knit and crochet.
At the moment I'm addicted to knitting socks and not doing much else.
I've got 3 single socks done, all waiting for their partner to be finished which should be this week. I'm also learning how to do fairisle patterns and have 2 hats in progress too.
My last finished project was a pair of socks with a cable pattern for myself. They are warm and cosy because the yarn is a mix of wool and alpaca |

Socks.
I’m addicted to knitting socks and have made on average a pair a week so far this year. I’ve also recently knitted a lovely shawl for myself too.
As well as socks I also have 2 crochet blankets half finished, some gorgeous yarn half spun on my spinning wheel and a small quilt half sewn in my sewing box.
I have a terrible habit of starting projects and not finishing them. |

Of course, you're producing a piece of work. Colouring can be very cathartic at times. I have a book ... somewhere

I've started a granny striped blanket for my daughter, it will be an ongoing project for sure
No doubts your son will love it all the same, blanket's are brilliant for snuggling, making dens, taking outside for picnics. don't give up on finishing it |

"One I have meant to start is deciding what to do with over 800 DVD's I have . Now I have a programmed Firestick I don't need them . No idea what to do with them
Goodness, I bet that was a painstakingly boring task
How about music magpie or other well known sites? "
That would take a decade as they are all gonna be priced differently according to year of film , popularity etc... I just can't be arsed to waste hours and hours of my life sorting it all . I'd rather just sell them as a bundle for 200 quid or something . |

"I knit and crochet.
At the moment I'm addicted to knitting socks and not doing much else.
I've got 3 single socks done, all waiting for their partner to be finished which should be this week. I'm also learning how to do fairisle patterns and have 2 hats in progress too.
My last finished project was a pair of socks with a cable pattern for myself. They are warm and cosy because the yarn is a mix of wool and alpaca
Bows down
That's one thing I cannot do is sock knitting.
And fairisle (insert drooling emoji) that's soooo tricky....I'm in awe! "
Sock knitting isn't as hard as most people think - if I can do it anyone can!
Do a google search for "winwick mum sock pattern". The lady who wrote it has a blog with step by step instructions and pictures and videos on her you tube channel. She also has a couple of pages on facebook, winwick mum sockalong and winwick mum knit and natter. There are lots of lovely people on both pages who help each other out if they get stuck.
I knit socks for a few reasons. I hate sewing up and I'm rubbish at it. I get bored easily and don't have the patience to finish bigger projects - at the start of the year I scrapped everything I had started and not finished, most projects had been untouched for over 12 months. My mum has MS and struggles to find socks that don't hurt her feet because they swell - I can knit socks that are tailored to fit her feet so they don't hurt her and they are warmer than shop bought socks.
Give it another go - beware you will get hooked on making them though |
